I went ahead and added the starting left tackle for every Super Bowl in case you're feeling nostalgic. I didn't include Jim Tyrer because of, well, you know why. [Reply]

I was kidding. However, your original point about "that same line of thinking is why we went into the season with Moore and Toney pencilled in as the starters" doesn't make any sense. Your making the case that we went into the season with unknown quantities at starting spots and it failed. If that's your fear then we should absolutely sign Donovan Smith and ensure we don't re-live that situation this year but this time it's at LT. [Reply]

At this point, unless something else happens, I don't see an upgrade out there at FA. Sure you could bring in Smith but I'm not sure he's light years better than Kingsley or Wanya. As long as neither of them are just downright horrible....start one. [Reply]

I think they will try it. Let them battle it out in camp but if the winner doesn't look good enough they will get a vet in to start. [Reply]
The only FA option for the Chiefs is Smith IMO. He knows the system, he's only 30, and he is exactly what we need, a little stop gap insurance policy. Otherwise, I think the Chiefs are going to roll with Kingsley. They are going to give that kid every opportunity to win the job and I'm all for it.
I also think C.J. Hanson and Hunter Nourzad both make the roster. Allegretti's absence provides space on the roster for both these cats, and frankly, Lucas Niang probably gets cut or traded if Morris or Kingsley look good in camp. [Reply]

The reason I used Bahktiari is because he did that for Aaron Rodgers...the other 2 examples we have here in Dawkins and Jones literally were protecting on awful teams with shitass QBs.
It's a lot easier to make that call when the franchise isn't back there. [Reply]

Well yea the Eagles signed Becton which I find annoying. [Reply]
