We had Lucas Niang at #57 in the KC Draft Guide, so this is awesome valued. Played through a hip injury last year. This is definitely a guy earmarked to take over for one of the Chiefs tackles in the future. pic.twitter.com/a1P53sN9bL
New Chiefs OT/OG @Kbniang8 has some WILD college stats. He didn’t allow a single sack in 975 career pass blocking snaps. If that’s not impressive enough, he committed just 3 penalties on 1,982 career snaps.#NFLDraft | #Chiefs | #ChiefsKingdom
I feel really good about our OT situation. Better than last year because I feel Niang can slide to LT if Brown has to miss games and Remmers can go right in at RT and play at a league average level. The backup plan for LT if Fisher were to go down was a major concern of mine for the last 3 years.
Get a stud center and this line is going to be really good all through the depth chart. [Reply]

Remmers is great depth. Can move Niang to LT if injuries occur so we don’t do the Remmers thing again there.
We were thinking the exact same thing at the exact same time. [Reply]

Haha yep, I get that I’m high on Niang and have been ever since they selected him. Hasn’t proven it yet but he’s a guy I’d buy a lot of stock in right now. [Reply]

Would be the first time in a while we had a legitimate backup option at LT rather than counting on someone like Cam Erving. [Reply]

Perhaps, just stating it’s a nice position to finally be in with decent depth. Night and day from a year ago, even after losing Fisher and Schwartz. [Reply]

Mmmhrmmm.
Or Long can slide over to RT, Remmers can come in as guard. [Reply]
