I still don't understand how he managed to fracture his kneecap. What was he doing? How did it happen?

Apparently smith is first man up at RG as of right now
Will that change when LDT comes back? |

I don't think they're going to start 3 guys on the right that have never played an NFL down. I think Humphrey is a lock at OC. After that, I think Niang has the 2nd-best shot to win a starting job. Which means Smith is the odd man out there. There's much more depth/competition at RG than at either RT or OC. |

I don't think LDT gets the RG spot. Look at all they've done bringing in guys. That doesn't lend much confidence. |

There's a reason they brought in so many interior lineman. LDT not showing up for voluntary workouts says a lot, too. I think the guy is pretty much done with football. If Long had actually stayed healthy I think there's a good chance LDT wouldn't even have made the team. He still might not. |

LDT is 6 year veteran and Super Bowl champion. The Chiefs aren't going to dump him, nor are they going to eat his salary when they have so little room left. NFL players miss entire seasons due to injury all the mother****ing time and many come back at the same exact level as before. LDT wasn't injured, he opted out to help others. He's not recovering from a torn ligament or broken or fractured bone. He's a professional football player and as long as he's willing to play this season, he'll be the favorite to start at right guard. Good grief. |

You mean, in OTA's?
Some of you people have lost your goddamned minds. This is a team with Super Bowl aspirations that just had the ever loving shit kicked out of the offensive line just 16 weeks ago. Andy is going to start the season with the best and most experienced guys, which does not include a 6th round guard, when there are at least two other capable starting guards (three, if Niang starts at Right Tackle). It doesn't matter what the year says on the calendar, every ****ing year, people fall in love with some late round/undrafted free agent and this year, it's Smith. And while he may become a quality and maybe even high quality right guard, the Chiefs are not going to start him next to a rookie center or what's essentially, a rookie right tackle, unless it's due to catastrophic injury. The Browns, Ravens, Chargers and WFT's defensive line would eat three rookies all game long. |

Yes. It doesn't mean he's the starter all season, though. If Humphrey wins the starting C job, you can be sure LDT will be the starter Game 1 unless he comes back weak or gets injured in camp. I still think Remmers will start Game 1, but Niang will push him all season.
