The Chiefs had similar offensive line woes in 2014. They threw Fulton out there but sat LDT. It was the last year the Chiefs missed the playoffs and the line was so bad that there were no TD's by a WR all season long.

They'd move Thuney, Wiley, or Remmers to RG before Smith gets a chance this year.

Yep, or Allegretti or someone else with experience.

Look people, Tennessee is not the Tennessee of the past. They are 10-24 in the past 4 years in SEC games.

If his blood clotting issue is under control, Smith has serious upside but even then, he's not an NFL starting guard right now, especially on a team with Super Bowl aspirations.
