CranjisMcbasketball 780 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Brought back on a 1 year deal. I love the moves veach has been making this offseason, except this one. This one is dog shtttt. Nnadi has been a massive liability on the field. my hope its a deal that he can be cut during training camp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer 8,684 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Hard to think there is not someone available that'd not be better for the same $$ but maybe Veach/Spags see's something we dont. Curious to what the $$ is because IF its a 5M deal well hell Saunders go that in NO. In Veach I trust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe_Chief 1,092 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 He only played 34% of snaps last year, so this is just for depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetlord 10,207 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Since he's so cheap, I guess having him around isn't a bad thing but I sure hope Wharton steps it up this year. Gotta have their eye on someone in the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moons314 2,463 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 I realize he’s more of a “run d” lineman than a pass rusher, but woof, I’d much rather have brought back Saunders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess Nnadi signed a VSP contract so the cap hit here is likely negligible. Likely we find a new nose on day 3. A guy like Broderick Martin might need some time to develop but seems like a good fit for us. sith13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Nnadi will just be a backup but wouldn't be surprised if it takes a while as a rookie adjusts to the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, depending on other moves the Chiefs might make in FA, Ika might be worth the second round pick if he lasts that long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's cause a) our nose kinda sucked (yay, he's back!) and b) not a lot of teams run it down our throat cause it's hard to beat mahomes doing that. But still for obvious run downs and situational football you need a good fatty. Can find one cheap in FA or on day 3 so it's not like it's a huge investment. Would be nice to find one with pass rush ability too but those guys are hard to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
