Rudy Niswanger seems solid, no?
 
Lots of holes up the middle, not a lot of penetration from the DTs on passing plays. I don't claim to watch interior line play often, but I can't say I've seen too much negative out of Niswanger.

His play is very encouraging to say the least.

Chiefnj2 09-29-2008 01:33 PM

His play hasn't been as bad as people predicted during preseason. He still seems to have the most difficulty when facing a 3-4 defense.

Fish 09-29-2008 01:35 PM

Yeah.... when the Donks came out with a 3-4, I thought "Ohh hell", but he held his own pretty well.

Would be better with Richardson and Taylor in on his right side.

Iowanian 09-29-2008 02:12 PM

I still suggest he's too tall to be a good Center. I'd much rather see him say...at Right Guard.

RustShack 09-29-2008 02:17 PM

You want big guys across the line when you are a mauling offense..

Iowanian 09-29-2008 02:19 PM

...and if the Chiefs are really working towards zone blocking schemes, they require agile linemen instead of large maulers, which is stupid, because they had a center for that scheme....

He was VERY good in limited duty last year at the right guard spot.

The Chiefs will have the option in next year's draft to either grab a true center and move Niswanger or grab a right guard.

Either way, it's a nice option to have.

Enouraging that maybe they will start Gelling as OLine... or could it be Dungver D????

Denver's defensive line sucks. That helps quite a bit.

Chiefnj2 09-29-2008 02:45 PM

Gurode (Dallas) and Birk (Minnesota) last years Pro Bowlers for the NFC are both 6'4".

I was thinking about that last night.
We'll need to add a Guard or two in the off-season.

Robinson would be an nice addition.

I wasn't talking about one game.
