Well...****

Here comes an offensive lineman in the first round.

This sucks. He's awesome on twitter.

All aboard the sub-.500 train.

Oh well. Can't blame them for not being willing to pay starter money to a guy that's only started 26 games in 6 years with most of them being injury fill-ins.

Yes, because the difference between a winning season and a losing season is a journeyman backup OL.

Dammit.

Less important than McCluster.

Welcome your 1st round pick.

People named Geoff take stun guns to petting zoos to **** with the children.

I've ****ing seen it happen.



They're usually larger males, too.

Another shitty OL in the first round coming up. Meanwhile, our secondary and wide receivers will still suck.

No.

Austin Howard or Michael oher for RG please

I understand Dex and Albert being let go, but I dont understand this move

They'll be too expensive.

Howard is a RT or G with so he won't get LT money and Oher is coming off a poor season. But there always is a chance they still get good money. Lots of teams with cap room to spare. Reid drafted Howard but the Jets are pushing hard to resign him

What's the name of the OG Tampa released? Would he be a good fit for Andy's system?

Oh well, it was a long shot Chiefs would pay Shwartz. Probably won't grab anybody in the first wave of FA. After the draft when the money settles down. Still, go'head git one o' them Oline boys first round. THEN find some good , cheap backups.

Wether O City wants to admit it this team is on the cusp of rebuilding. 6-10 next year.

Schwartz totally Jewed us.

Yep, Geoff Schwartz walking is gonna cripple the franchise.

We need a second round pick in a bad way.

I hate to say this but as long as he is genuinely ok mentally what about Richie Incognito he could probably be gotten on a fire sale at this point...and hes pretty good

perpetual process this cusp.

He never has been and clearly is not now...

Yea letting go of your 3 best o linemen with a fragile QB is a brilliant move. Reid is setting up to draft another o-linemen you know the same strategy that got him FIRED in Philadelphia.

ROFL

What is your problem?

How many first round o-line did he draft?

Oh 2.

I thought letting his line go to $#it was what got his QB killed and him fired...

Where's Danny Watkins at these days?

This sucks. It is looking more and more likely that we will spend another pick on OL that would have been nice somewhere else.

Wut?

Wtf are you talking about?

Yep bad pick. He was one of the two.

We have no clue if they're gonna bring in another guard via FA, the draft etc. It's March.

Again, no clue who might improve in year 2 in a system, who might regress, or what will happen.

It's pointless to start the whole "6-10" talk in March.

HE STARTED SEVEN GAMES.

This is CP. Any time is a good time for unwarranted panic.

3 counting Fisher who's a back up right tackle taken #1 overall. I googled his drafts though most were d linemen and most of them were draft busts.

How did the offense play those 7 games?

He's a Dolphin.

Okay.

You said all those EAGLES picks, but whatever.

But he's LEAVING!

So if Reid sucks, then who cares who's on the team, they're gonna fail.

Bad coach=bad team.

I never said Reid sucks but his history of 1st round picks does.

Good thing Dorsey is running the draft, cause Reid's track record isn't very good.

You gotta love Chiefs fans.

Albert and McCluster leaving? Good riddance! We should look into cutting Flowers and Bowe while we're at it.

But FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DONT LET GEOFF SCHWARTZ GET AWAY.

Well one player it was known this was going to happen when the #1 overall pick was made a year ago and the other player is below mediocre.

Green Bays track record of drafting o linemen in the 1st round is equally as bad. If you think Reid is just a figurehead well then youre a dumbass.

It is a little disconcerting how many of our FA's are leaving. Just figured if they loved it some might stay. (I know, it is about the money, but still)

Letting them go must mean they like Kush.

We all said that last season and it will get magnified 10000% draft weekend. Don't look for it.

Because he plays LT or G?...

No but Hudson can and did.

This one is foolish on the Chiefs part.

We better sign a guard. If we take one with the 23RD I WILL BE PISSSESSSSSSSD!

It ALWAYS about the $$$. It looks like it could be like all Chiefs seasons after making the playoffs...

Not well and not better than C.

I loved the Hudson pick and I like his talent but he's best suited at C.

He's perfect at C and undersized for a NFL G. It's not just Pioli that thought this and moved him - it's a universal outlook on him as a prospect. That said an athletic guy like him could play well in a ZB scheme but he's not the prototypical G size.

Just spitballin'

I just don't think they'll now spend the rest of the offseason replacing what they just lost. They'll need someone, FA wise, but really hoping their plan isn't 1st round to chase what they lost.

I ****ing hope they do...

No. Hope they think they have answers on the team, or can replace the losses without too much problem, but not creating a need you didn't have.

Or they're targeting linemen in the draft.

Figurehead? I'd imagine he has some say in each pick, but he's not running the draft.

Rishaw Johnson FTW

Could be. I doubt it.

You mean you hope not?

Bitch, that's a mistake.

That too.

We only have 1 G on the roster. From FA or the draft we'll have to add a number of bodies there.

I think we could be ok at LT. Not great, but passable...

He got some looks playing G in the goaline when they shifted Schwartz to an extra TD. Then of course the SD game. He got some good snaps in and is a good looking prospect. Hope he develops at least for depth. Anything above that will be a bonus

I don't care. I want the player to be good. That's what I want.

Albert wanted 10 mil a year. We should not have overpaid and didn't, therefore good move. McCluster is going to get between 4 and 5 mil a year. We should not overpay for McCluster either. Good Move.

Schwartz, not saying he can't be replaced, isn't just a Guard. He was also the backup RT. That swing ability is important when our only OTs are Fisher and Stephenson. Now with Asamoah, and Schwartz gone we need a starter and depth at guard. Albert leaving means we have a need for depth at LT no matter who starts Stephenson or Fisher.

That sucks. I really like him.

Exactly.

Both Dorsey and Reid have been involved in drafting many, MANY offensive linemen over the years. That and defensive linemen.

We probably should get used to it.

Looks like solid depth - do not want starting...

not disagreeing at all just pointing out they haven't updated the roster at kcchiefs.com except for maybe Dressler.

http://www.nfl.com/teams/roster?d-44...id.position_Id

that link has everyone they have under contract including the future fa's they signed....the ps and street fa's. It doesn't have UFA, RFA, or ERFA's listed though. Just was looking today to see who all they added as scrubs and figured i would pass it along. Seems up to date

Yep. Not unless he wins it in competition with a low key FA signing like Schwartz was last year. Or whoever he would compete with for that matter. He was at Ole Miss, got in trouble and transfered to where Kush went to school. Then undrafted. Long arms and big bear paws so he's a prospect but hasn't proved anything worthy of starting yet

I thought he did an admirable job when put in games last year...........but there is a damn reason he's not sticking with teams he is on. The Chiefs aren't the first team that has let him move on.

Asamoah to falcons for 4.5 mil per year or talent that's what twitter says
