Chiefs Veach's '21 Offseason Plan to Keep Us Thriving: Let's speculate - Page 60

Dante84 · 02-08-2021, 10:03 AM

In order to prevent us wasting precious years of Patrick Mahomes' career, Veach needs to work some magic this offseason. What's your advice for him?

Do you really think they're not going to address this, when the offensive line cost the Chiefs a Super Bowl in 2020? Or just some duct-tape and a prayer?

I don't.

I absolutely do think they'll address it. I just don't think they're going to dedicate every last resource they have to the offensive line, which is what some people seem to want.

The only 2 guys I’m comfortable plugging in are Niang and LDT.

After that I think you have to have a realistic plan that looks something like this:

Re-sign Osemele
Sign Jason Peters
Sign Justin Britt

Draft:

2. Quinn Meinerz/Creed Humphrey/Josh Myers
3. Walker Little/James Hudson/D’Ante Smith

That’s a realistic plan in terms of what I’d expect the Chiefs to do.

When have you seen Andy Reid shake up the offensive line in the middle of the season? If the rookie is good at LT....why would you want to move his position and possibly **** things up?

Then Fisher can go to RT if the rookie is lighting it up. Don't think Reid places much emphasis on LT or RT. He wants 2 great Ts, period.

If they trade up for a LT....then Fisher is gone after this year.

Fisher isn't a RT. That would be awful.

Yep.

They'll ride out his contract and let him go.

Just means they won't be as active in free agency.

He disagrees with you.

Do you think that if I go ask Andrew Wylie the same question.....would he tell me that he can’t?

I’m pretty sure Fisher wouldn’t be as open the playing RT now that he’s not a rookie trying to prove himself while saying the right things.

This is silly.

Sassy Squatch · 02-12-2021, 04:00 PM

And quite frankly, in this hypothetical if the rookie is playing well enough to keep Fisher from playing LT then I'd consider that an absolute home run of a draft pick and a great use of resources.

According to Over The Cap they could save $5.5 million if they do post-June 1st.
