I’m in complete agreement, Veach probably doesn’t take him if Clark’s not here... extremely savvy roster building
All these guys have ready made mentors they respect in place, add in a class act coaching staff and they’re all set to thrive here [Reply]

Demone Harris is super tough against the run, with starter upside if he can get a pass rush developed — and he’s super young. He helped us win a Super Bowl.
We have to risk practice squadding or cutting him to make roster space for Danna, a guy who isn’t as good a fit for the position and also has no pass rush.
Just a terrible pick and we’re going to lose a cheap year of Demone Harris.
Don't you think if the Chiefs like Demone Harris and he's worth keeping, they'll find a way to keep him?
If he plays better than Taco Charlton, why wouldn't they keep Harris over Charlton? If Danna is as big of a piece of shit as you think he is and Harris is great, why would they practice squad Harris?
Yes, great players on great teams get cut before the regular season all the time. It's also true that guys whose roster spots were thought to be safe get taken by random training camp invites who just simply played better or showed more potential. It happens all the time. Very rarely do you see coaches (particularly on this staff) go, "We think we have a better chance of winning games if we keep Player X over Player Y, but we DID spend a draft pick on Player Y, sooo.... let's hope Player X makes it through to our practice squad!"

Guarantee you havent even seen the guy play before. Really dumb post. [Reply]
I didn’t read the entire thread so I have no idea if this was said already but we should see if RNR is available to come back. Having a nacho and taco on the DL seems like a good thing. [Reply]
