Can they opt out again this year? I'd expect to see the UDFAs there, but I wonder about the draft picks.

No well at least so far opt outs have not been offered.

And so it begins.......

Who will be this year's camp "superstar" that gets cut?

Who will be the sleeper who makes the team?

Finally! We can get to work on getting that nasty taste out of our mouth from the last game.

No injuries, please.

I'M SOFAKING HORNEE

I’m not going to be used to seeing #14 on the field for every game.

LETS GO ROOKS!!!

Would be great if they could find a UDFA of Wharton’s caliber again.

I wouldn’t count on it considering how small/weak our UDFA class is this year, but getting Trey Smith in the 6th was HUGE, so I’ll take that instead.

Me too man, me too.

Roll that beautiful Chiefshub footage for them.

KEEP ****ING DOUBTING MALIK HERRING.

Humphrey, Smith, and Niang :whackit:

JFC, opt out for what reason this year?

Did anyone else read the Twitter comments?

LMAO

I don't know if it's just Chiefs fans or NFL fans in general (probably the latter) but that kind of epic dipshittery is funny for about 10 seconds, then it's just annoying AF because those people actually believe what they're saying.

"The Chiefs don't need Kaindoh. Ever heard of Okafor?" and "Noah Gray is going to sit on the bench all season. Bad pick. Kelce is still the best!".

LMAO

Dave Chappelle said it best. Twitter is like writing shit on a bathroom stall.

This may be strange but im ****ing ready to see Lucas Niang. I know hes probably rusty but damn i feel like hes the RTOTF.

Daurice Fountain is athletic as ****. I'm not saying he'll make the roster, but I like that they're bringing in guys like him for a shot.

I had to look up if Derrick Gore is Frank Gore's son. I knew Frank had a son playing D1 football the last few years.

Spoiler: no relation.

I doubt he's too rusty; he's been training pretty solidly for quite a while.

Some video on Twitter out there from him today. He looks pretty fat, bigger than he was a TCU. He might need a little bit to get back into shape.

It’s his first team football practice... college or pro... since October 2019 so of course he’s going to be rusty.

Who's the poor UDRFA at defensive tackle that will be going against Creed in this camp? RIP that guy.

Lol, truth.

I like Gray in #83, too.

Or you’re just overanalyzing a video. We all know he’s been working out for months.

Niang went on that Breeland speaks diet. Dude gained like 40 pounds

For this reason: https://chiefswire.usatoday.com/2021...tory-minicamp/

According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, NFLPA President JC Tretter informed players today of plans to push for an all-virtual offseason. OTAs have always been voluntary workouts and Tretter is encouraging players to boycott those workouts if teams conduct them in person.

What number is Niang? I dont see a huge weight gain unless im looking at the wrong guy.

Dude has always had a belly. It's what gives him that disproportioned look where he looks like he's got the legs of a man half his size.

Ok i think im looking at the right guy, he looks like he has in previous vids to me.

#67

I've never been so excited for an OL in my life. If they perform to expectations Mahomes will avg 380 yards a game.

Yea no

Oh, well im sorry that you're wrong again.

https://i.imgur.com/L0xzYFC.jpg

He definately had some pudge in college. Go back and watch the film of him v bosa.

Edit: Not saying he hasnt gained some weight but I dont think hes gone fat and soft like breeland speaks seemed to.

Exactly.

He does look a little bigger, but considering it’s ****ing May and he hasn’t played football in quite some time, yea he might need to shed 10-15 before the season.

It’s not “40 pounds”. That’s for sure.

I see that one of you has already seen Billay and the other one is in need of seeing Billay.

They call them fattys for a reason

Has there been an OT since the 1970s with little body fat? It seems like you'd either have some extra weight on you, or get your ass run over by a D lineman.

JC Tretter and the NFLPA are ****ing idiots. I don’t think they’re all quinn the same page anymore after Jawuan James lost like $10 million because he worked out away from the Broncos facility.

Not everyone can look like #52

Dude is going to be my favorite Chiefs.

He's Mack truck!

Donks WR Hamilton just tore his acl working out away from the facility

OUR FAT RIGHT TACKLE IS FAT


I don't give a shit how much he weighs just as long as he helps keep Mahomes off his ass on the field.

People are going to lose their shit when the see our OBJ

At this point I think you're just doing it on purpose.

Which part because I probably am

Orlando Brown Jr as OBJ

Indeed

Putting in here as well.

This is his trainer:

It's the same gut he had under that puffy sweatshirt he wore in his workout video. I doubt he is at his ideal weight but he has that barrel chest as Roaf had. You could see that thing nearly hit him in the chin when he runs or back peddles. He has 67 on in this camp wasn't he 77 in his college film?

The whoever runs theArrowheadlive account are little bitches that don't take ownership of their opinions like this and their take on the RB position during the 2020 Draft

Can Mahomes play in a a clean pocket?

Asking for a friend....

The players start camp fat and end the season skinny. Andy starts camp skinny and ends the season fat. (Relatively ofc)

Yeah.. So we are complaining our fat guys are too fat??? I think training camp starts in July.. SFC...

Donnie Edwards has said he started at 230 but in the mid-season he weighed 215

You screw up and Andy will literally chew your ass...

Are we still doubting Malik Herring?

Yes

I want to believe, but perhaps I am just a Doubting Thomas.

Malik played in 34 games at Georgia and he had 70 tackles and 4 sacks. I think he was a rotational player at Georgia.

At the 2021 Senior Bowl practice in January, he tore his ACL.

I have read that the Chiefs are looking at Malik maybe getting healthy and being able to help in 2022.

I always want to root for a young player to come and make a difference for the Chiefs.

What is it about Mr. Herring that has you NOT doubting?

Our Rookie class looks great!

Tony Mandarich ? i'll take anybody with some belly fat over him.

Yeah, they really are.

I also loved the picture they pulled up of him at TCU... if you do a random google search for Lucas Niang and pull up the Images tab, you have to scroll down the page to get to that phot (which I'd guess is from early in his career there, since his jr-sr game film and pics (pics that show up higher in the google search) all show a paunch that is visible even when he's wearing pads.

I'd guess he's MAYBE up 10-15 pounds from the weight he was at in his last few years at TCU. Not a concern to me at all.

And if they want him to shed that 10-15 pounds, it’s only May.

He has a little bit of Willie Roaf going on with that big gut and skinny legs.

Listening to Trey Smith interview. He’s got a similar mindset to Orlando Brown Jr. He’s determined and has a strong will to meet his goals.

This OL is going to be so badass. It’s going to be even better in 2022 when they’ve had a little more time to gel

Not sure why the thought of having a dominant o-line gets me so hard but man it sure ****ing does, you can do anything you want and the other team can't do shit about it.

I think you just answered your own question.

When's the last time we had a dominant line? Run-blocking in particular has been garbage for years. Sick of seeing other teams' RBs going 6 yards untouched while ours are in a constant fight to get to the line of scrimmage.

Our offense may have been pretty dominant last year relative to the rest of the league, but the reality is that they relied heavily upon schemes, trickery and Mahomes Magic. Imagine the possibilities when they're able to finally impose their will in the trenches.

I don’t necessarily want us to run the ball more, but we need to be much more effective when we do. We have to absolutely punish teams if they start dropping 7. Need to be able to gain serious yards on the ground in those situations and any real pressure with 4 is inexcusable.

Rewatch the SB. It was a tale of two lines. One was a brick wall, the other was the grand canyon. It's not hard to imagine which line won the SB.

Icing on the cake I agree.

Sounds like a phantom IR stash candidate.

Because as good as PMII is out in space, he's going to be that much better with time to process in the pocket.....
