Simmons is following Mahomes & Chiefs Instagram account, and has been since Super Bowl week. I keep checking if that's changed or if he's following other NFL QBs and team accounts and it hasn't. Simmons is ONLY following Patrick & the Chiefs said accounts. [Reply]

I'll say this, his functional strength really did look pretty poor against Carter even when he was getting the job done. It was angles and momentum he was using. Some of that stuff might have been called a hold. Most of it might not have worked against someone a little stronger. And if he's a starter and they start going right at his chest, that's gonna be a struggle.
He was able to get his angles right and use Carters momentum against him to win more than he lost in that clip but even in a pretty positive film package, you could see the strength is a real issue.
I'm please to see I wasn't the only one with this takeaway. He also got smoked on some inside moves while looking great pushing him upfield to the outside. Tells me he isn't stout and has to commit to one direction to succeed. Big red flag for me. [Reply]

I hope he goes before us.
Because Nolan Smith and James Pearce screaming off the edges with Jalen Carter coming up the chute doesn't sound like much fun to me.
Last year everyone was convinced Nolan Smith was too small to hold up against the run, and that he had an inflated draft grade due to being on a dominant Georgia line. They were wrong.
Not much we could do about the Eagles picking one earlier than us with Smith. But if we let Pearce go to them I'd be incredibly pissed.
He's not as strong as Smith, so the concerns this time might be more legit. But he's got the frame to build out, and if Spags really can't find a substantial role for a guy like that, that's his failure imo. [Reply]

Nice! Just to be clear, this is more of a guess for the Chiefs potential targets than my own even though there's obviously some overlap. [Reply]
