Palangi 788 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Niang being activated this week? How soon until he replaces Wylie? I’d like to see Niang take over the RT spot this year. Then next off-season train to be the LT. He is an elite pass protector. Then see it Kinnard can be the RT. But obviously draft a guy to compete with either one. https://www.arrowheadpride.com/2022/11/21/23471735/chiefs-offensive-lineman-lucas-niang-likely-to-be-activated-this-week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all the things he does well there's a few that are right in front of him that he just can't see. I honestly think he believes Andrew Wylie is a good football player. Wylie is going to start for us all year, and he's gonna give up critical pressures and sacks all year. It's fucking neglect. We have one of the best football players that's ever set foot on the gridiron and Reid insists on having one of his tackles being a guy who doesn't belong on an an NFL roster.

DieHard 2,061 Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 I thought Prince looked good. Don’t see Niang as a huge upgrade, but T depth is no joke. Glad to get Niang back in the mix. West and Lamardirts 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer 8,686 Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 has Naing even played a meaningful # of snaps in 3 years? What makes anyone think he's an up grade and yes I realize that sets the bar very low? SEMO and dhitter 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know coaches comments have too be taken with a huge grain of salt but the way Reid talked he is going to running with the 2nd team for a bit. I dunno if they still see Niang as a starter or not at least for this year. I thought Prince did a better job than Wylie but they went back to Wylie when he was ready instead of giving the kid a chance. artsy and oldtimer 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems RT has been a glaring weakness since Mitchell got hurt. dhitter and sith13 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sith13 1,746 Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 We are yet to replace Schwartz at RT and Niang doesn't seem like the answer with all the health issues. However I think he could be an upgrade for the rest of the year if all the preseason talk about him in 2021 was real. Don't have high hopes though.

Calichief 3,016 Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 The line was playing really good with Niang last year. Smith and Niang had a good thing going. mex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
