I certainly was disappointed when they didn't re-sign W. Smith.

But my guess is the signings of Wiegman and Lilja are examples of players who are products of the system we are going to run under Charlie Weis.

I think thats the plan. Finding the right role players that are suitable for a particular scheme. Players who understand and know their role within the scheme more than anything.

We are going to be more of zone blocking team. I think thats the direction they're headed. Wiegman excels under that scheme, and so does Lilja. the scheme the Chiefs are going to run is best and properly suited to the strengths of those players.
