onejayhawk Posted August 15, 2021 Author Share Posted August 15, 2021 In all of this, the names Tim Ward and Prince Tega Wanogho have not popped up. Shows what we know. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onejayhawk Posted August 19, 2021 Author Share Posted August 19, 2021 This one is about fringe players and how game #1 affected their position. Some are kind of dicey. one thin I like is that the author recognizes that TE/FB as a group will like get four roster spots. What I don't like is that he thinks Blake Bell is on the roster bubble. https://www.arrowheadpride.com/2021/8/18/22630632/chiefs-bubble-watch-how-preseason-week-1-impacted-the-roster-bubble J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigTrav Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 One more for Darwin. I'd rather him than a 7th WR because I think he can spell CEH for some receiving. His twitch is ridiculous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's why they picked him up. His potential as a ball carrier is secondary. I don't think that's the decision in any event. The 4th RB would be Burton. Is the team willing to go without a FB, since Gray is available? As a footnote, what would you give for a Moose Johnston? J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onejayhawk Posted August 20, 2021 Author Share Posted August 20, 2021 Preseason Game #2 tonight. I hope to get extended looks at Prince Tega Wanogho, Tim Ward and all the backup Cs. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigTrav Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Turns out Gray is on fringe?! If so, I'm having him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onejayhawk Posted August 24, 2021 Author Share Posted August 24, 2021 Noah Gray is not on the fringe any more than Joshua Kaindoh. He may not be at the top of the depth chart, but that does not put him in jeopardy of street clothes. Darwin is one of the players I think Toub was referring to when he said that fewer players would be kept primarily for ST. There are others. It's beginning to look like BoPete Keys may earn his keep. He was not in danger of dropping off, but he looks like another CB/S hybrid in the making. It's kind of sad that we have so few we want want to make the team. It's more a matter of familiar faces getting bumped off. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly this is about guys we already think have made it but I think they will keep 7 WR.https://www.arrowheadpride.com/2021/8/24/22639937/chiefs-coordinators-give-clues-as-nfl-roster-deadline-looms Edited August 25, 2021 by onejayhawk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onejayhawk Posted August 25, 2021 Author Share Posted August 25, 2021 The buzz all summer is about Devon Key, but it looks like Jody Fortson and Daurice Fountain are also making serious bids to make the final roster. will there be a way to squeeze all three onto the final 53? With Ward and Saunders stepping their game up, they are no longer potential cuts. Watts and o'Daniel not so much. With five new OL starters, who are the holdovers and how many? Is Prince bidding to make the roster? What of Durant? We have used both in preseason games. We have used Burton at FB and at several other positions. He's a FA who might stick. Who from 2020 is still on the 80 man roster and in danger of not making the final 53? I have Armani Watts, Dorian o'Daniel, Darwin Thompson, Andrew Wylie, Yasir Durant. Am I missing anyone?
