The #Chiefs are hiring Steve Spagnuolo as their new defensive coordinator, sources say. The former #Giants DC and interim HC/#Rams HC began his NFL coaching career as an #Eagles assistant under Andy Reid. Now rejoins Big Red in KC.

I kind of wondered about that. It would have made a lot more sense. Plus we'd be in so much better spot now with having a year in that. [Reply]

Our guys literally fit the 4-3 better than they do a 3-4. We wouldn’t have brought in Hitchens, Speaks, O’Daniel and so on if they didn’t know this move was coming(Unless Veach just doesn’t know who fits his scheme). You’re worried about Ford and Houston not fitting???? Fords job will be the same, just with his hand in the dirt. 4-3 DE’s play OLB in the 3-4. These guys played DE in the 4-3 their whole lives before coming to the Chiefs.
Also you shouldn’t run a 3-4 unless you have an elite NT. It’s no coincidence our defense went to shit after losing Poe. [Reply]
Trey Flowers is an interesting situation to watch. The Patriots generally don't pay big money to players....and as it stands right now....they only have around $21 million in cap space to work with. Looking through their roster....they only have Dwayne Allen to cut for significant cap space ($7 million in savings). I'm not sure they could afford to tag Flowers. [Reply]
I would give Irving a 1 year prove it deal to see if he could clean his shit up but dude is a mess off the field. I wouldn't be surprised if the Chiefs wouldn't touch him. [Reply]

He's gonna get paid a shit load. I would look to draft the next Flowers. [Reply]
