Poop Have we reached critical mass with Reiter and/or Wylie? - Page 3

Whatever it takes. But they’ve got to get better linemen in there to protect the franchise.

Put Wiz at Center with Wylie at LG.

Slow weak white guys on the OL don't stand a chance.

oldman · 12-02-2019, 11:42 AM

Wisniewski is on a 1 year deal, so I wouldn't put a lot of faith in keeping him around for a 10th season. Rankin was a 3rd rounder, so he may be toward the end of his contract. We have a C in waiting, Allegretti, so why draft another with a 1st? What we need to do is draft/sign Gs are Gs, Cs that are Cs, and OTs that are OTs. While I understand that you need guys that can play multiple positions, you need your starting 5 interior guys to play where they're supposed to.

**The Franchise** · 12-02-2019, 11:45 AM

We have that OT that we signed from the Colts practice squad. I wonder where he’s been working in practice.

KChiefs1 · 12-02-2019, 12:53 PM

OL is pure shit.

ChiefBlueCFC · 12-02-2019, 01:12 PM

If anything, hopefully it is a wake up call to the front office that they probably need to address the interior of the OL in the offseason. No qualms with LDT, but Wylie and Reiter have been undesirable to say the least.

I've seen a few say that Wisnewski (i know that isn't how its spelled,.... i think) should be playing and I'm wondering why he isn't playing because when he played, it seemed like an improvement over who he replaced.

Regardless of what happens the rest of the way, our OL absolutely needs to be addressed via draft/FA... probably draft over FA i'd imagine

I'll hang up and listen off the air

rtmike · 12-02-2019, 07:25 PM

I read Wiz doesn’t like playing center anymore. He was cut shortly after signing a 4 year. He was beat out at C.
Prior to and I think Super Bowl he was playing LG. But the high draft pick he beat got better and took back his spot so Wiz had to play C if he was to stick.

Pitt Gorilla · 12-02-2019, 01:18 PM

Allen really wouldn't be an improvement, either. At this point, the improvement just about has to come from within. Rankin looked really solid. I'd hope that Allegretti could do something similar down the road.

On a somewhat related note, anyone have access to PFF player grades? I'd love to know how NFL centers compare this season.

Dunerdr · 12-02-2019, 01:23 PM

I really believed we were approaching a point where rankin started at LG and wis would end up at c, now were patchworking.

OKchiefs · 12-02-2019, 02:32 PM

Hmm, maybe taking an OL or 2 early in the draft would have been better than taking some loser fat **** like Breeland Speaks.

**BossChief** · 12-02-2019, 02:54 PM

Our best OL is probably

LT Fisher
LG Erving
C Wisnewski
RG Wylie
RT Schwartz

oldman · 12-02-2019, 02:57 PM

LDT does just fine at RG when he only has to pick up his guy. It's far too often he has to contend with Reiter's guy.
I've watched a bit more of college ball this year and a couple guards have impressed me, Bredson from Michigan and Kindley from Georgia. But we do have to think about bringing a quality tackle on board. Mitch and Fish aren't getting any younger.
Once we have the AFCW locked up, I'd like to see what we have in some of our backups (PMII out of the game, of course). It's time to fish or cut bait with some of our OL.

That's actually a damn interesting point.

LDT was hurt for most of the time he'd have played alongside Morse last year, right? And he was actually looking very good in the first few games before his injury (when Morse was alongside him, IIRC).

Maybe that's a big part of it. I hadn't considered it, but it's possible that Reiter is having a negative impact on LDT.

I really think we need to get Wisniewski in there as quickly as possible. We have to know if he can provide an upgrade. If he can't, there's little harm done in trying. It's not like he's going to expose Mahomes any more than Reiter already has.
