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

Exactly.
I don't agree with Jake at all and I'm honestly not sure why he chose my post to respond to because he is basically arguing FOR my position. [Reply]
The Chiefs have drafted one OT since the Reid era. One. Fucking one.
Eric Fisher.
And while he was the #1 overall pick, he was really raw. And turned into a nice starter. So this notion that Heck can't coach drafted OTs is stupid, because he's 1 for 1 so far. [Reply]
The main person to blame for the Oline issues is the injury bug. I can't think of a single team that would have survived what we went through last year and got as far as we did. Teams just aren't built to sustain 6 injuries in the OL room.
Other contributing factors were obviously the COVID opt-outs, and sure, if you want to blame Veach's team for Reiter & Wylie and everything after, fine, but I won't hold it against them.
LDT (COVID)
Niang (COVID)
Schwartz (Injured, then Berry'd)
KO (both knees 'sploded)
Rankin (recovery all 2020)
Fisher (AFC championship) [Reply]

I'm curious about that number. Let me check what thread we're posting in....... [Reply]
It’s one thing to analyze a have concerns about parts of the team, but this dumbass literally hates everything about the team. He’s always bitching about everything.
He’s still a garbage poster as seen here:
