  1. I was worried about a run on OT's myself..regardless Veach if he is getting itchy wont do anything stupid
  2. I seriously doubt I make i unless they trade up..no way I see past 10:30
  3. Arrowhead brags on Slaps BBQ.. does it make the cut?
  4. on the radio yesterday they where talking about what it took to assemble that thing..over 500 truckloads from all over the country with this or that...damn
  5. I seen a PFF article just a few days ago about how the Chiefs need to up his salary..like a 1/2 $B aint enough JFC
  6. I dont see Veach giving up next years 1rst for anyone. There are not THAT many gaping holes in the team and not sure there is anyone that would drop in the draft to the mid teen to warrant that kind of commitment. When the draft hits pick #20 it's time to start paying attention
  7. too much chatter with Flowers to be a smoke screen unless he is taken soo early the Chiefs cant reach him (top 15) if so 1rst Henderson 2nd DE/DL
  8. they might of but that tender IIRC made him one of the top paid punters anyway. I think he was just waiting around to see if someone got stupid and wayyy over paid
  9. my biggest concern is that QBs are getting bigger and smallish DEs could be at a disadvantage at times. in Veach/Spags I trust
  10. probably his size and those cloth line tackles but this is fairly impressive for those 3 years Punt returns (yards): 63 (635) Kick returns (yards): 82 (2,137) Touchdowns: 2
  11. Vaughn (5-foot-5 and 179 pounds) https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/S/SmitNo00.htm Noland Smith Noland Smith Jr. (Super Gnat) Position: WR 5-5, 154lb
  12. K-State RB Deuce Vaughn details two-hour meeting with Chiefs at local pro day Chiefs GM Brett Veach has experienced great success in the draft hitting on players that made immediate impacts in their rookie years. A player Veach brought in for the local pro day was Kansas State RB Deuce Vaughn, who detailed his meeting with members of the franchise in a recent interview with John Kurtz of the KC Sports Network. “There have been (talks with the Chiefs). I actually got to go out to the local pro day, as well,” said Vaughn. “(I) worked out with the running back coach (Todd Pinkston) and worked out with the special teams’ coordinator (Dave Toub). (I) felt like I did really good, and I was able to go upstairs and talk with (Chiefs offensive coordinator) Matt Nagy and talk with the running back coach and even speak to Andy Reid (for) a little bit. Just get to learn about their offense and pretty much portray myself and my football knowledge to them as well.” Vaughn (5-foot-5 and 179 pounds) ranked eighth in the FBS with 1,558 rushing yards averaging 5.3 yards per attempt last season. He led the FBS with 1,936 all-purpose yards and finished 2022 scoring nine touchdowns. Vaughn earned First-Team All-American honors and Second-Team All-Big 12 Conference accolades. “So I was up in that their film room, I was up in their office for about two hours after that workout,” Vaughn continued. “And then just the football prowess and the knowledge that they have is not only Andy Reid but Matt Nagy as well and the running back coach. Well, it was huge to even be up in there and talking about football with them. I mean, they’re geniuses on that side. You can see why they want a couple of Super Bowls and why they’re gonna win a lot for years to come.” The Chiefs are uncertain about their running back depth, with question marks surrounding Clyde Edward-Helaire. Jerick Mckinnon’s future with the team is also in question as he remains unsigned. Isiah Pacheco, last year’s seventh-round draft pick, is expected to continue as the starter, but depth will be needed and considered during the course of the 2023 NFL draft.
  13. here ya go Xen Chiefs legend Mitchell Schwartz hosting ‘KC Smoke Show’ at 2023 NFL draft Former Chiefs RT Mitchell Schwartz will be helping introduce 2023 NFL draft goers to a quintessential element of the local culture in Kansas City. The NFL announced on Monday that the Super Bowl LIV champion, Schwartz, will serve as host of “KC Smoke Show” at the draft. This special event will spotlight the local BBQ cuisine and pitmaster culture in Kansas City. It will feature a number of local favorites, such as Joe’s KC BBQ, Gates Bar-B-Q, Arthur Bryant’s Barbeque, CHEF J, Slap’s BBQ and more. The pitmasters for the respective restaurants will all get a chance to show off their BBQ prowess with a variety of cooking demonstrations, a BBQ competition, a rib-eating contest and more. “KC Smoke Show” is set to take place on Saturday, April 29 (Day 3) beginning at 9:30 am on the North Lawn of the National WWI Museum and Memorial. Throughout the 2023 NFL draft, there will be 20 local food and BBQ vendors with an on-site presence within NFL Draft Experience on the south side of the Museum and Memorial. The goal here is to give fans of all teams a chance to experience what the local KC cuisine has to offer.
  14. he sucks..aint no Jamal Charles and certainly aint no to Earl Campbell
  15. Chiefs already laying groundwork for trading up in first round of 2023 NFL draft Kansas City Chiefs are already calling around ahead of the 2023 NFL draft to attempt to find a way to move up in the first round according to a new report. Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer broke down team-by-team needs and pick predictions with sourced information in his recent edition of the MMQB. He said that the Chiefs are, “one of the few teams that has already made calls about moving up.” He added that the teams that Kansas City has spoken to feel they’re trying to find a “discounted way” to get up the board. What that exactly means remains to be seen. Perhaps they’re gauging interest in adding a player to a trade package? Maybe they’re simply looking for a bargain and a team who might take less in trade than expected. He mentioned two particular targets in a trade-up. One of those is Boston College WR Zay Flowers and the other is Alabama RB Jahmyr Gibbs. The information on Flowers seems to lean heavily on his recent throwing session with Mahomes. The information on Gibbs sounds more like it’s speculation on his fit coming from sources outside the team’s building. “I wouldn’t want to be in the AFC West,” an NFC exec told Breer. “if Gibbs winds up in Kansas City.” It shouldn’t come as a massive surprise that K.C. has already begun doing their homework on making a trade-up in the first round of the 2023 NFL draft. Chiefs GM Brett Veach explained that all possibilities are on the table during his pre-draft media availability. He also gave a very descript play-by-play of when and how they go about laying the groundwork for a first-round trade.
  16. When the Kansas City Chiefs signed WR Richie James in free agency it came as a bit of a surprise. Everyone knew the team was interested in adding to their receiver room, but the specific player, not so much. As it turns out, the Chiefs have had their eye on James for quite some time. Speaking to media members during his pre-draft press conference, Chiefs GM Brett Veach provided some details behind the signing. Apparently, the team had been interested in James since he was at Middle Tennessee State University. They even attempted to acquire him in a trade back when he was with the San Francisco 49ers. “He’s a guy that played with (Giants Offensive Coordinator), Mike Kafka, last year in that (Giants Head Coach Brian) Daboll offense in New York (with the Giants),” Veach explained. “(He’s) a versatile player, you can move him around a lot, (he’s) a Middle Tennessee State guy that we liked. Actually, I think a few years ago, there was a trading deadline period when he was with the (San Francisco 49ers) Niners, I think we actually tried to trade for him. One of those waiver wire cut-day deals, but I’ve always liked the player. I think he’s a very versatile guy and he also does punt returns too, so he can take some pressure off of KT (Kadarius Toney) or Skyy (Moore) or whoever is back there. Just having another guy is something that we think is a plus.” After Kadarius Toney was able to pick up the offense rather quickly, it seems they’re expecting a similar process for James. Mike Kafka’s offense in New York apparently uses many familiar concepts and terms. Veach’s comments about James returning punts in the stead of Toney and Moore are reassuring. It suggests that both of those players are, in fact, due for larger roles on offense in 2023. They’ll need a player like James to fill in on punt returns to lessen some of the workloads for Moore and Toney. Whether James amounts to more than depth remains to be seen. He’s already down in Texas working with Patrick Mahomes and his new teammates. That shows that he’s at least motivated to make an outsized impact.
