Man!!!! I love Andy Reid. The @Chiefs and Andy Reid are offensive line savants. Kingsley Suamataia has big time potential. I think he he can be awesome guard or tackle. Just needs a little technique work. He is an aggressive killer who is great athlete.
Kingsley Suamataia is a versatile offensive tackle who split his 1,300 career snaps at BYU almost exactly down the middle between left and right tackle.
My favorite line from Dane Brugler's draft guide: "He delivers more pancakes than Denny's" ��
Traitsy OT w/ great size+athleticism+strengt. Easy range in the run game to pull or climb to landmarks or hit set points in slide. Patient hand usage to stay square and trust his lateral agility. Pad level & overall technique should develop in NFL. pic.twitter.com/p9zOJEuMkr
Two games in Kingsley looks pretty good for a rookie LT. More experienced DE’s are going to get past the rookie on occasion, but Kingsley does not look completely out of depth and overwhelmed. [Reply]

What? He was completely overwhelmed today against Hendrickson. He'll learn and get better. [Reply]

I seem to remember our 1:1 tackle struggling his rookie year as well. I hope that they will actually give him some help when going against the next pro bowl caliber player. It just didn’t seem like we were actually invested in chipping, even when Pacheco was in the vicinity. [Reply]

Wtf? Hendrickson was a top 5 pass rusher last year with 17.5 sacks and was 6th in total pressures per PFF. He was 7th in pressures in week 1 despite being double and triple teamed.
He’s absolutely a top 5-7 pass rusher in the league. [Reply]
