#Chiefs’ rookie Breeland Speaks made his presence felt against the Jaguars, totaling seven pressures (2 QB Hits and 5 QB Hurries) on a career-high 56 defensive snaps. He played a combined 60 defensive snaps in weeks 1-4, per @PFF. pic.twitter.com/0sacM3II3B

Gotta figure we keep 8 or 9 DL between DE and DT. We have several guys that can play in or out, so I might lean towards 8, so K-Pass will probably be on the fence.

DE- Clark/Ogbah/Okafor/Speaks
DT- Jones/Nnadi/Saunders

If they project Speaks more of a DT, then maybe you take K-Pass as your Wide 9 in pass rush situations.

Or possibly Williams (too much $$) or Hamilton.

Actually this is good. As a DE he needed to gain some weight. This is good

Remember how excited we got over Jon Baldwin running the streets of KC at Night?

Im sure with the added weight he's probably the slowest person on the team including all linemen.

Insufferable prick planet

Isn't this the guy that we're supposed to be converting to d-line?

Didn't he weigh 280 or so last year? Maybe if he's moving to DT he could gain weight.

285 yes. Could be a good fit at DT tbh and we could keep KPass

From 3-4 OLB to 4-3 DT a year later. What a stupid fucking pick. They clearly had no real idea what to do with him or where to use him. Another square peg in a round hole.

So Fuck Veach?

I really hope this is with the intention of moving inside and not just laziness

Yep, if he doesn't work out (which is probably 85% likely at this point), this will be a great lesson in how not to use high draft picks.

Essentially they drafted two DE's in back to back years, and tried to convert them into players that can cover.... LOL and now they're bringing them in close. It's like drafting an OT, and hoping you can teach him to catch, and play TE. Then after he fails miserably, beefing him up and trying him at guard.

If one between K-pass and Speaks doesn't work out, it's like doubling down on a bad hand.

Wasn't he a DT in college?

No he was a 4-3 DE that was forced to play OLB in a 3-4. He should be a 4-3 DE again who has put on too much weight in the off season.
They will probably only carry 4 DT. Jones, Nnadi, Saunders, Hamilton, Williams.
Speaks needs to make the squad at DE.
