I disputed dane’s post below that penciling in Niang is the plan. That’s a stupid plan and taking the position that maybe we should Pencil Niang at lt is stupid. And also noting that he’s receiving instruction for presumably being lt when he’s clearly winded in a weak workout and is only working the right side is stupid. I know y’all love Dane but penciling Niang at the premier position of lt and protecting possibly the best qb ever is a dumb suggestion. Several people flamed direckshun for saying that offseason failed bc we didn’t address wr, de or LT yet but Dane gets to say this? Maybe he gets special treatment bc he’s a mod now?

We don't know what the plan is.
Maybe it's Niang at LT. Maybe it's not.
Maybe it's draft a kid at #31, or maybe it's #63.
Maybe it's pair that with a stop-gap short term guy like Okung. Probably, this is the plan.
Maybe it's trade for a LT from another NFL roster. Who knows? We don't. Veach knows, and he's not talking.
Niang was a first round talent that fell in the draft because of a hip injury. I expect he's in the plans at one side or the other.
I wouldn't expect anything to just be handed to a rookie right out of the gate.

To be quite honest, I'm not sure I see the difference between drafting Jenkins at #31, only to switch him over to the left side, and starting Niang at LT.
I mean, if they're going to move a guy, why not move the guy that's spent the last year training per the Chiefs instruction?
