Has anyone heard anything about any of our players getting vaccinated? Just curious.

I mean everyone and their entire eligable family should get vaccinated in the NFL right? They have a close contact job, and you can get vaccinated now....just makes sense.

Even if they were not in the NFL, the players and their families should want to get it. You would think/hope players would see what COVID has done to players who got it, and know it could effect their career.

Changes some things with competitors...

Disagree on the whole drop off thing, but.

Agreed. Unless he was playing hurt (I haven't heard anything on this), he looked pretty washed up last year.

Hensley with some Baghdad Bob level spin there. If the drop off between Brown and Villanueva was so minimal, why didn’t the Chiefs save their draft capital and sign him themselves?

Thanks "ESPN Ravens reporter and WBAL Radio contributor."

Not buying that though.

Also, somewhere in this thread is a decent chunk of posts talking about the Chiefs shit line.

On paper, it arguably is top five now. Great offseason for them.

I'm not ready for top five. Orlando Brown is a damn good player and Thuney is excellent. I'll spot you those two spots. Austin Blythe is a solid starter, which is more than I could say about Austin Reiter.

Flipside: Niang hasn't played yet, but I liked him in the draft. Prince Tenga is young, but I thought his ceiling was a developmental swing tackle. Long hasn't played a full season since 2015 and came out of retirement. He has even more to prove.

They need a few gambles to pay off before I see that as a top five offensive line.

There was discussion about how the Chiefs were no longer the team to beat in this conference because their o-line was trash. Basically saying that they were no longer a concern in the AFC. At the time I (and someone else) was saying that FA was not done and there was the draft and time for them to improve their line.

Idk about top 5 but his main point was that with just a few moves, they've seemingly turned what looked like a weakness into a possible strength. Yes, they are still the team to beat in the AFC.

Good move for th3 chiefs

 

[Jack Brickman]

Good move for th3 chiefs

Agreed. They addressed their main weakness.

Now if only they hadn't wasted their first on CEH last year and had drafted a good RB instead.

Didnt get it then.

Didn’t get it when he was a top ten fantasy pick.

Don’t get it now.
