West 6,713 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 Bubble: Niang.......Driskill gettting alot of snaps (Niang is not quick - he could be traded) Hanson ......Practive squad Hardman......Remigio may be the returner Goners: Toney......Seems like he would rather be somewhere else, Andy will assist on this. Toney's market value is low (best case) Irv the TE.....Has not shown much, may make the PS...May get traded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niang may get a roster spot but agree, he's on the bubble. Hadden, the sixth round pick, may also be on the practice squad. He's not shown anything better than the other reserve DBs. Also doubt Irv Smith has trade value but the PS makes sense if he's willing. Main remaining questions are at RB and who starts at CB. Other than that, the teams seems pretty well set. Is there anyone who can still improve their prospects in pre-season game three? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West 6,713 Posted August 19 Author Share Posted August 19 Game three is going to be about the CB room and WR Room. We may see a DB Trade as well. Teams know KC is loaded at DB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer 8,683 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 IIRC the Browns have a bunch of injured OTs not sure how serious but maybe get something out of Niang West 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetlord 10,207 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 Suamataia, Taylor, Morris, and who? I think Niang has a shot at the roster. Not good, but a body in a worst case scenario. Calliendo and Nourzad seem to have sown up the interior line reserve spots. The Chiefs seem to be overstocked at reserve DBs and #6 WRs. Not a lot of trade value there. Still hoping for a speedy third down RB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KC Warpaint 3,234 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 Hardman may be kept, i read an article yesterday that said that Remigio has flashed at times he makes too many mistakes which will hurt his chances, can't have him make , bonehead plays when the regular season starts. We allowed Toney to get a ring but that ship has sailed not even sure why he is still on the roster right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CranjisMcbasketball 780 Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Niang looks done to me, heck even Godrick looks better at OT to me. FAU, he 99% wont be cut being a 1st round pick last year, but my god he shows no ability to do anything. no burst, no power, nothing. I actually think FAU might be a trade candidate, the thing saving him is that Omenihu won't be back for a while. West and KC Warpaint 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieHard 2,061 Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 I am really intrigued to see how the bottom the WR and CB room shakes out. I just don’t know how they view these guys. I hope it is Moore and Ross over Remigio, Toney and Mecole. If they keep 7 I think they give Mecole the nod, but I prefer the up side of Remigio.

For 3rd and long, I’ll take a good pass blocker who can catch. McKinnon was perfect for the role but, alas, time is undefeated.

oldtimer 8,683 Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 I'm with Mex. The Chiefs need a bigger bodied back..call it a FB or whatever I dont care but at 3rd/4rth n goal from 1,2 or 3 yrd line with a big back the Defense HAS TO honor the possibility of a run up the middle same with a 3rd n 1,2. I liked McKinnon but his wheels fell off and until proven otherwise they don't have a replacement. JMO but bringing Steele in shows that Andy saw a deficiency in short yardage ability without the Sausage and it's being addressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West 6,713 Posted August 20 Author Share Posted August 20 One thing to consider, I think Red Beard or RGR said it....the Chiefs back up CB's are long and strong and they can be very good in press coverage. This is not something that is abundant in the NFL.....There may be some value there and I expect these guys will see significant time Thursday.

Lining up Steele as FB with Pacheco will give defenses a lot to worry about, Lamardirts and oldtimer 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prince is Pachecos backup. I do think a speed back that can pass pro and catch would be a great type to fill out that group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CranjisMcbasketball 780 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 yeah i think playing baltimore week 1 is the worst possible time to face them. lamar and henry will be fresh, and its hard to battle their running attack early in the year when most defenses aren't use to full speed tackling yet. that being said the ravens are probably just as scared of the chiefs and we should be favored. even if we lose the game it will be hard to be mad. this will be the ravens super bowl.
