kingseanjohn Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Release and re-sign? If not, we better go OT early in the draft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedGold Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Writing was on the wall. Will miss both players, but it was time. Extending Hill and Mathieu should be next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KC_Guy Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Well, in TCMD we got 2 draft picks out of them ... but ended up with a not so convincing OL (in my opinion) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefer Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Gonna need to grab as many OL as we can in the draft at this point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habbsawce Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Oof, with the cap going down something had to give. Definitely going to have to draft Olinemen and put a lot of emphasis on depth and rotating linemen. Poor Mahomes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KC_Guy Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Would laugh my b*u*t*t off if the Chiefs end up with Charles Leno in free agency ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayanfootball Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Good, IMO. Now we can concentrate on replacing. Back and Achilles injuries on used tires. Not a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayanfootball Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 I don't think Chiefs would let both go without some reassurance from L.Niang. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onejayhawk Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Agreed. They think Niang is not just an OT, but the LT, or this makes no sense. They have candidates for RT, but they may feel that they can draft one who can play right away. J 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefs_5627 Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 (edited) So what are we looking at for a starting lineup: LT Niang LG C RG LDT RT Does Algretti go to C? Remmers comes back? I hope this doesn't mean Wylie comes back... Edited March 11, 2021 by Chiefs_5627 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onejayhawk Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 It's just that wide open. Niang has to be the LT, but the bodies they have back are thin--Wylie, Rankin, Allegretti, Durant are the only ones on the active roster, plus LDT who is a special case. Other than that, it's waiver claims and UDFA. Prince Tega Wanogho and Darryl Williams are likely in the mix, but the others are probably camp bodies. If they want to sign one of the FA, I think it's most likely Reiter, because of the chemistry he has with Mahomes. They can get a good player at #31, but a starting player is more dicey. In all, the team does have eight draft picks. J 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’d be LT: Rankin LG: Wylie😄 Allegretti RG: LDT RT: Niang Sans LT, that’s not worse than what we rolled with the majority of last year. I know it’s not good.. but fill LT with a guy like Alejandro Villeuva or someone around that and the OL is the same as last year, with the draft to improve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yeah Wylie is a RFA isn't he... 🤦 If Niang winds up on the right side we'll definitely have to sign a vet for LT or draft one high. Maybe we pull a trade for Zeus Jr 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Wow got rid of both Schwatz and Fisher? Surprising, guess they want maybe to keep Remmers or better yet be able to resign the younger Wylie and Reiter who are younger. Should for sure draft a OT late 1st round now with those two guys gone. Sure they got Rankins, Niang and Tega Wanogho but not sure two of them could start, maybe one. Really they can obviously get any OL and make him into a fine player, look at who they had as guards and who great they are now, or how good they made Remmers when he came over. Probably should not be a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onejayhawk Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 It's over $17 Million off the cap. Everyone knew it was coming, but we were in denial. I thought they might try to keep Schwartz for his final year, but Fisher's $11 Million was dead weight. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
