Kansas City is trading its first-round pick Thursday night, along with three other picks in the 2021 and 2022 drafts, to the Baltimore Ravens in exchange for Pro Bowl OT Orlando Brown and one pick in the 2021 draft and another in 2022, per sources.

I wanted him but yeah he's ****ing bad.
Honestly, I thought that from the beginning and said as much. My concern was that he was in a run first offense and he would not make the transition to the Chiefs offense at all. Dude cannot pass block for shit. He is terrible at it. [Reply]

I don't think that's a good idea, either. Niang almost got our QB killed at RT. What do you think will happen if he plays LT. [Reply]

And seems to be getting worse. It's safe to say he has shown no improvement. He had problems with speed rushers during the preseason, and he still having problems tt the same pace now. [Reply]

Orlando Brown's performance today was worse than Remmers' in the Super Bowl. We know Brown isn't the answer at left tackle. He's not a rookie, he's a smart guy, he just simply doesn't have the quickness to play LT. It's not going to get better. I honestly don't see how Niang could be any worse. [Reply]

He’s just not a LT.
What makes you think Niang would be any better? Could easily be worse. [Reply]

They would be wise to do so but we both know that isn’t happening. They’ll trot him out there and watch him get beaten like a drum all year. Just hope to God he doesn’t get Mahomes killed. [Reply]
