Now, I do think Niang is a sleeping giant at RT. I don't think people realize just how good he was before that hip injury in college. That basically leaves LT and a solid swing tackle. If they get a good FA LT, they can take a guy like Walker Little to develop in round 3 and he can be a swing guy for a couple of years. If they can't get a top-shelf LT in FA, then I think you look to get a good swing guy there and then go after a LT in the draft. Either way, Reid requires tackles that can play in space. |

Can take that two ways. Maybe a great interior gets mahomes to trust his pocket more. Or, if his permanent tendency is to drift are we always going to put our OTs in a tough spot regardless of who we put out there. I'd agree we need above average tackles... But do we need elite ones now that we have this kind of an interior? |

Tackle is the gold standard for OL in this league; but carving out an online built differently to suit a unicorn isn't necessarily the worst idea... I'm not jumping on any theories just yet but I appreciate the idealistic hope, and I still am holding out for silver sleeves or whatever his name is |

This. We had hot garbage at tackle in the Superbowl against great edge rushers, and Reid just shrugged it off and called the game as if we had Orlando Pace on both sides. Get that man a great left AND right tackle.

I think Andy thought he could get away with average guard play but had seen enough.
This offense badly needs quick pass, screens, playaction. Arguably the guard is more important. Not to mention that a lot of CEHs best running is up the gut. We saw how little confidence Reid had regular season when he refused to run against Tampas interior. Tampa annihilated us with stunts. Great defenses slide pass rushers like Aaron Donald inside. I used to be have guard really low on my list but it sure seems like so much of what mahomes needs right now. We need a short game more than we need long pass pro tight now. |

Dude is playing for less than $1m base this year.
For one of the best in the game. Veach is a total badass.

I wouldn't be surprised if we traded up for a tackle now. |

I hope the Chiefs aren't planning on sliding Thuney out to tackle. He's played there before but i would rather not count on him there now. You generally want to move people in, not out. CB to Safety, OT to Guard. |
