I used the word "can". I know, he can also get worse. I was trying to come up with positives. I think defensive coaches must have decided that they can work with him.

I know you used the word "can". In fact, it's that word I take exception to. I really don't think he "can" improve at this point. He's maxed out and now on the decline to go with it.

Brett Veach communicates and works with his coaches. I assume that they said to sign Nnadi.

I'm not excited by the signing. I came up with some possible reasons that it happened.

It's pretty telling that Saunders went out and got a 3 year deal, but last year was the only year he's been healthy. Nnadi never missed a game in 5 years and started for the best team in the league in all but 12 games over that time and no other team is willing to give him even $2 mil for a year. Hell, did he even get any interest if he's signing for vet min less than a week into free agency? The guys been so bad that he was almost out of the league. |

Or what is more likely, Derrick Nnadi's agent reached out to every single team and there was literally no interest. They came back to KC and said we didn't get any offers, but my client wants to keep playing. Nnadi has been on this team during the best 5 year stretch in it's history and Reid/Veach did him a solid, because it really doesn't hurt the team and they wanted to do him a solid. It's less than a week into free agency and he's already settling for vet minimum. He had no interest.

Now we know the truth, KC Pet Project has a lot more influence over chiefs personnel decisions than we thought. bunch of dogs on d seems to be the plan.

I'd probably prefer a guy like Karl Brooks over most of the lumps, purely for continuing the trend of inside outside versatility. Hell I was in on that guy early on here. But at some point you just have a lot of pass rushers who get shoved around in the run. The absolute worst is guys like Nnadi who can't do anything. |

That guy is a tank and can move. Nnadi on his best day can't hold Reader's jock. Again - I'm not sure what some of these comments have to do with Derrick Nnadi. Having an elite version of ANY player is a good thing, even a pure NT. But having a merely average NT doesn't move the needle and Derrick Nnadi isn't even that.
