Leach would help us do both of those things. I'd gladly flush the other investments we have made at FB to add an all pro guy.

If the version of the Chiefs West Coast offense takes on the look that the Houston Texans run, then Leach could be a valuable addition to our team.
Personally, I think the Texans model fits us damn near perfectly... maybe even more so that the Reid model he used in Philly. And I kind of get the feeling from things we have been reading that the Texans version may be a little closer to where we may be heading on offense than Reid's version. JMO
EDIT: Houston's 2012 version stats (7th overall, 8th scoring)...

508 runs for an average of right at 32 carries a game.
Eagle's 2012 version stats (15th overall, 29th scoring)...
