3) Reiter wouldn’t take a 1 year deal and thought he earned a 3 year deal from us. Veach disagrees. Center is at play in the mid rounds.

Key point there.

I don't trust PFF grades on ANYTHING.

He's going to be playing next to an elite G, possibly 2 if Long is healthy (at worst, KC is going to be "solid" at RG with the number of bodies it has.

I'll take it and consider it an upgrade. KC is roughly top 10 at C, top 3 at LG, possibly top 5 at RG, and top 10-15 at RT (as long as they leave Remmers there, with potential for better depending on Niang).

That's the makings of a really good OL.
