onejayhawk Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Now that we have a better idea of who will be on the 90 man roster we can start shaking the tree to see who falls out. This is an article on the crowded position groups.It's easy to place the starters in most units, and often the led backup. After that it can get hairy.https://chiefswire.usatoday.com/lists/2022-kansas-city-chiefs-90-man-roster-most-competitive-position-groups/?itm_source=parsely-api Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onejayhawk Posted May 9, 2022 Author Share Posted May 9, 2022 (edited) Here are some takeaways from the final two days of rookie camp. https://chiefswire.usatoday.com/lists/kansas-city-chiefs-darian-kinnard-jaylen-watson-isiah-pacheco-skyy-moore-justyn-ross-rookie-minicamp-takeaways/?itm_source=parsely-apihttps://chiefswire.usatoday.com/lists/kansas-city-chiefs-andy-reid-george-karlaftis-trent-mcduffie-skyy-moore-rookie-minicamp-takeaways/ I know someone well who tried out as an UDFA. He did fine against other rookies. Then the veterans checked in. J Edited May 9, 2022 by onejayhawk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onejayhawk Posted May 10, 2022 Author Share Posted May 10, 2022 Reid had some comments at the conclusion of rookie camphttps://www.arrowheadpride.com/2022/5/9/23064424/chiefs-andy-reid-on-trent-mcduffie-george-karlaftis-tyrann-mathieu-and-more It was great. It was great getting everybody in here, these young guys in here. [GM] Brett [Veach] did a nice job of supplying us with two deep for every position at least. We were able to get some good team work in. I think it’s a good foundation for the young guys that are coming back. Not everybody is making the team, obviously, that’s out here, but the ones that are coming back in a week will at least be able to hit the ground running, know the snap count, right? You’re down to the basics. Snap count, how to get into the huddle, what the coverages are, fronts, so it’s good. On McDuffie He moves around well, good hips, good hands. I like the part about being smart when you’re playing that position. Leverages become important. How you do those. Size, different-sized players — we have some big receivers that we go against. How are you going to take care of that?” On Karlaftis He goes 100 miles an hour, walk-throughs, everything. We had to slow him down, but I’ll tell you, it looks like he has a nice feel for the game. We put some fire zones in yesterday, and he moves around well when he’s in space. He’s got good hands it looks like. Again, this is with the little we’re doing. But that motor is probably the thing that jumps out at you. He goes and goes. At a point, you have to think of the other guy. But when you’re going at that tempo, and it’s a walk-through and everybody else is doing a walk-through, then you’re going to get somebody hurt and it might be you. So, go at the tempo we give you. We’re going to give you plenty of time to go fast. He’ll get that up at training camp. He can go 100 miles an hour and do his thing. Just knowing the tempo of the drill.

KC_Guy Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Tryout OL Chris Glaser signed to the roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KC_Guy Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 also re-signed: C Austin Reiter and WR Gary Jennings. Good explanation on the logic behind those moves here. Released: QB Anthony Gordion, RB Brenden Knox, OT Gene Pryor, DT Darius Stills. Gordon may come as a surprise after being with the Chiefs last year, but the team recently signed QB Dustin Crum. May be they want to get a closer look here. They may still swap QBs between OTA and training camp if it doesn't work out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onejayhawk Posted May 10, 2022 Author Share Posted May 10, 2022 (edited) Next up are the voluntary workouts until OTAs. Schedule below.
