I was actually going to post something similar. Its probably less about Thornhill dropping and more to do with getting looks at other players. Somebody has to drop to get a look at another guy.
Thornhill isn't going anywhere, nor should he. [Reply]
Look away if you're still having Super Bowl flashbacks but Mike Remmers is working today as the second string LT. Hasn't worked at RT yet today. Could mean Chiefs have settled on Niang at RT
Andy Reid says Juan Thornhill is "just working back in," says he wouldn't take anything from where he's getting his snaps right now. pic.twitter.com/2y8AKrqpJN

Yeah…with all the quality OL starters and depth the team acquired this offseason, the back up LT remains the pain point… [Reply]

Andy would never steer us wrong with coachspeak right?
I mean, I don't want this joke to imply that I'm worried about Thornhill, rather that Andy says things like this all the time without actually saying anything.
For instance, Mahomes is going to play the first quarter. Eric Berry is day to day. No problem with Le'Veon Bell. [Reply]

If both work out...in conjunction with Sneed being the top-rated rookie CB for a 4th round pick...it might Veech's most impressive accomplishment so far.
2 former 1st round CBs for essentially nothing...
Chiefs will have spent almost nothing for their entire starting CB room...while the Donks use the 9th overall pick, passing on a potential franchise QB, to get just one. [Reply]
See this is why Petro's narrative about not trading draft picks fails. Veach routinely picks guys up that should be first or second round picks.
I mean Wharton based on his play should at least be a second rounder. Trey Smith a first. Sneed a first.
Who cares if Veach trades a late round pick to move up and select Gray? Petro thinks it needs to be a numbers game throwing the most picks at players because Petro can't actually evaluate talent like Veach can.
