I can’t believe how many Willie Gay apologists exist here. The man is a good player but he’s not Derrick Johnson or any ring of honour level type player for Kansas City. He’s not a consistent tackler and is poor in coverage. Tranquil is a dawg, and Willie is going to have to ball out because he will lose snaps to this guy, because Tranquill is a complete football player. Veach just dragged his nuts with this acquisition. Love the competition this will create. [Reply]
A really curious signing. I wonder what the plan for him is. However, he seems a versatile guy that can make it difficult to know what the defense is doing. Seems like a guy you can use as a situational edge rusher, linebacker, and as a strong safety. [Reply]

Tranquill had one good season and was an after thought-role player prior to it. A complete nobody on a relatively mediocre defense.
I'm not trying to hate on Tranquill, but Gay is really good LB that you're not giving enough credit to. [Reply]

Tranquill is a good signing because we lack depth. [Reply]

Definitely don’t view him as a Gay replacement, but as a young versatile lb that adds some diversity to our lb core, especially with his ability to cover. [Reply]

The guy wasn’t ever given a chance and was a very productive college player. Staley learned how to use him properly and when he got a proper snap share the guy became their most reliable defender. Veach strikes again [Reply]
