Bladasz has a lot more polish to transition to the pros than Frederick did, but it will be interesting. Somehow Andy Reid made it so Mitch Morse, a converted OT from college could start day one in the pros, so I'd like to believe given a 1st round talent he could find somebody pretty damn good. |

This years draft is stacked at WR. If you have some really good players falling to you in the first, maybe a team behind you in the first would give you a 3rd to jump up and grab someone.
You could stay in the first and pick up another pick. |

That's why its so crazy to see him go all 'ride or die' with Wylie and Reiter. He KNOWS those guys are bad. He's not Todd Haley out there just yelling "GIVE ME MORE PASS PLAYS" and trying out his Madden Playbook. He actually knows what he's looking at. I just don't understand it. Quote:
And I would still JIMP if we got Kenneth Murray in the 1st. It's just gonna be tough to address that OL absent spending FA money on it and I'm just not sure where to find it if you intend to bring back Jones or extend Mahomes. I'm guessing Murray gets looked at as a luxury item and they'll just stick with Hitchens for another year while hoping they can get Ragland on a $3.5-$4 million AAV deal for 2 years. Then they go heavy on OL in the draft. And fellas, our OTs aren't getting younger - that's gonna need significant attention in the near future as well. We've neglected the fatties for too long. It's time to pay that tab.

All you say there is true DJ, but it kind of just is the way it goes. You're always gonna have holes, have to rely on certain things.
I think the interior OL is definitely a spot you've got to address. Hell, I'm all for drafting a C and siging Scherff to play LG. It's not feasible I'm sure, but I'm tired of seeing the Ol get worked in there and Mahomes bear the brunt of it. One thing i've kinda been thinking about, Could you flip Sammy to the Cardinals for David Johnson and financially make it work? |

The money isn't there. Johnson will cost roughly $11 million. And if you want to bring in IOL reinforcements, that's where it ALL has to go (unless you're letting Jones walk). I've pondered him as an alternative to Bell as well but in the end, he's just slightly less expensive but still far TOO expensive.

Just keep Darrel Williams and Darwin Thompson and then draft a RB at the end of the 2nd round.

We need to shoot damn near the entire RB room into the sun. If you find yourself pining for Spencer Ware, who's agility and speed are just GONE, because he's capable of picking up a blitz....you're doing something wrong. The fact that there's even an argument for Spencer Ware says as much as needs be said about the fundamental failures the Chiefs have had in putting together their RB stable.

I think Andy trusts him to do things like...pick up a blitz. I don't think he trusts Darwin to do that. As for the running back room, things would look a lot more sunny if Reiter wasn't getting shoved back three yards every ****ing play. I'm telling you guys. It's the interior offensive line. |

But the running backs still suck. Just from a pure skill-set standpoint, they're simply not very good. Thompson is the only one with something resembling a standout skill-set. If the OL were good, we'd have a Derrick Blaylock situation where we see a guy performing well even though we all know he's pretty lousy. Yes, there are ways to paper over our stable of lousy running-backs in an effort to make them appear less lousy. But they're not good, man. Though watching Thompson on that early screen did my heart good. It was nice to see a RB outrun a pursuit angle and simply make 10 extra yards through being a skilled player. Damien looked like that guy at moments last year but has shown only the briefest glimpses of that explosion this year. It would sure be nice to have someone who can take more than he's given again.

Does Allegretti figure in on the offensive line going forward as a starter? If so, at C or G?

he hasn't played enough to tell. I think only using low picks, reclamation projects and UDFA on the line in the last few years is showing up on the field though. |
