If Veach was, it seems Andy wasn't told.
That said, the C position was awfully tough in the draft this year, especially after McCoy and Jenkins went early in the 2nd. I wonder if the Chiefs take one of them if they fell to our spot in the 2nd (probably not).
And they were in on some second tier FA centers.
I would've liked to have taken a shot at Michael Jordan, who's occasionally starting at G for the Bengals now. I thought he had real potential as a long-term C. That said, he's been pretty much ass this year as well. I'm not sure he's actually any better than Allegretti would be. And the Chiefs didn't have any picks in the 4th or 5th round so he was never really in play unless we wanted to use a 3 on him (and Saunders just had too much ceiling to pass on there).
I can kinda understand how this happened, but I don't understand how they're unwilling to give Wiz or Allegretti a longer look. I just don't get the divestiture aversion w/ Reiter right now. He's a real problem.
