Have we ever considered that Lucas Niang is a figment of our imaginations?

[Direckshun]

I think we're looking at this Niang situation all wrong, personally. At least those of us even aware of his "existence."

Personally, I've spent the entirety of his rookie contract so far waiting for him to make an impact, to be the right tackle this team needs, but mostly just to get off PUPs and IRs and make a damn difference for this team.

But something occurred to me. It's entirely possible we just collectively made him up?

You know the saying that if God didn't exist, mankind would make him up? I think that's what we've done with Niang.

We all wanted a decade-long starter at right tackle who never gave up a sack in college, and we somehow wanted this talent in the third round. So we just manifested his existence.

But it turns out that's the limit of our collective imagination, because while we can collectively imagine him, we can't actually create him. And so we have to spend seasons with Mike Remmers and Andrew Wylie and Gerod Christian at the spot.

I'm not even sure we selected him in the third round? I mean, was anybody actually there?

I think we've got this situation all wrong, guys. Lucas Niang is basically Harvey the six foot tall invisible rabbit.

TL;DR: I don't think Niang is a real person.

Unfair? Regardless of draft position he’s either good or he’s not.

THE IMAGINING IS ON:

Lucas Niang’s 21-day practice window is set to expire on Wednesday, Nov. 23rd. On that day, the team will need to decide whether to activate him from the Reserve/PUP list or place him on season-ending injured reserve. The last we heard from Andy Reid on Niang came about a week ago. He said that Niang was making progress, but wasn’t there yet.

Reid's exact words:

“Yeah, he’s working very hard and making progress,” Reid said of Niang. “He’s not there yet, but he’s working at it.”

HERE COMES LUCAS NIANG

[oldman]

Looks like we'll find out tomorrow. (Reid) “I’ll talk to (general manager) Brett [Veach],” he said. “I haven’t talked to Brett today, but we’ll talk on that and just see where we’re at with that. But he’s made some nice progress over the last couple of weeks. And I’m not telling you he’d be the starter, but I think he’s ready to get in, probably, the two-deep. We’ll have to talk to the kid, too.”

So if he's ready, who gets cut?

I wonder if they even elevate him at this point.

[Peter Gibbons]

Perhaps it is Mandella effect???
We should have a poll to see how many people actually believe Niang is part of the team and how many others don't ever think he played for the Chiefs.

BTW - I do recall the movie Shazam starring Sinbad so piss off, it happened in my version of the simulation before the administrator combined our sims.

He's part. Only grumpy old men who hate the opt out deny that he at least exists. And Direkshun, but he has a whore of a mother.

You are probably correct.

Other possibilities -

1. Put Clyde Edwards-Helaire on IR. Reports are a high ankle sprain which needs some time to recover. Only temp 4-week solution.

2. Waive Joshua Kaindoh. Maybe still developing but does not seem to have much value to the team.

3. Waive Jack Cochrane. Jack has been playing some on special teams, but we have others that could fill that role.

Also have to consider the move if we bring back Blake Bell.

[Mecca]

Cochrane is another Toub special, it baffles me we have a roster with Marcus Kemp, Jack Cochrane and Chris Lammons and we're discussing where we need to find roster spots.

Marcus Kemp is a Practice Squad member that Chiefs have been elevating for games. Dave Toub likes Chris Lammons and Chiefs seem to value him. I was surprised when KC brought him back with his legal issues.

I'd see #1 as most likely, with #2 as the 2nd option. I don't see them letting Kinnard get exposed, especially since we have to make decisions on both Allegretti and Christian for next year. I doubt Bell will be back this year or even next. Both Fortson and Gray threw some pretty fine blocks Sunday.
