Check out his takes: QB is going to be fun to watch and all 3 are better than Wilson. RB is a strength, WR is good, both lines are better than ever and the insanity just goes on and on. This may be the real knowmo...
It’s all up to QB. I’ll go through position groups but I think you’ll see I’m pretty confident all over. I firmly believe all three have a better arm than Russ, all three are just as athletic, maybe slightly less elusive is all. This is going to be a a relevant and a blast of a preseason watching qb’s.
RB
Williams looks great, Jaleel looks just as good. Perine is far behind those two but still a legit NFL backup/contributor. I didn’t like the Estime pick, but he’s a more complete back than I anticipated. I HATE that Blake Watson is out, might not get his chance. Running back will be a strong suit for us.
WR
Outside of lacking a “superstar” this is a good group. Courtland is sleepy good, and looks good. Tim Patrick is the ultimate sleepy good player. If he’s healthy he makes the team. Mims could very well become that super star. Josh Reynolds is a solid starting nfl WR.
That’s 4:
I don’t see them keeping Lil’ Jordan Humphrey off this team. Trust me on this one, Vele WILL make this team. Brandon Johnson can play. You still have Jalen Virgin. I honestly Think Troy Vincent might be on the practice squads. I just can’t see him cracking the top 6.
TE: I made my note about Nate Adkins. I think we kind of know what we have in them all. If they keep four Yassmin is long gone. There’s only 5 on the roster. The other 4 aren’t as bad people think. All serviceable with big upside from Dulcich - no news here except that Yassmin sucks.
OL and DL are hard to read during camp but I’ll say this. They are big and physical. On paper I can’t remember a season as a fan where I thought we were this talented on both sides of the line. Zach Allen is an animal.
OLB - I am �� not worried about this position. It’s time for Cooper and Browning to be on the field and no overpayed vets ahead of them. They both look the part. Jonah Ellis is a nice addition. I never noticed Bennito once today. Thomas Incoom was giving some backup olineman absolute hell during a 3rd down period.
MLB - biggest difference this year is that I see Cory Barton being a true two down, Alex Singleton on the field more and Jonas Griffith coming in. I love this group. Singleton might be the most underrated player in the NFL. I loved Josey Jewell but I think he was too similiar and Singleton and Barton is a better compliment to him. Griffith is an athlete. Strand has stuck around for awhile for a reason.
CB - this is similar to WR, except we do have a superstar. This will be a competition but I think we can’t lose, we’re in great shape here. The only thing I notice is how small the group is. Surtain looks huge. Jaquan Mcmillian is super physical regardless of size.
S - if any position scares me it’s this. But….
Brandon Jones not practicing
It’s hard to tell if they are in position or not to the untrained eye at camp
It seems to be a less important position for a stud, seems like they need a good, specific role player
That’s enough for now! More camp to come for me!
All i can think when i read this is, "Thank God the Chiefs don't make us look this stupid anymore".
It sucks rooting for a shitty team.
But no more, "Keep fucking doubting Mike Maslowski" or, "I'm tellin' you guys, Brad Cottom is the next great thing at TE". [Reply]

So their defense is elite because they shut down that shit offense and at the same time the offense is elite for scoring on a shit defense. Make this make sense. Which is it? How are both sides magically this unstoppable force at the same time? How is Bo torching them when these homers praise tye defense? [Reply]

Patrick Mahomes has never been 3rd on any depth chart. That doesn't happen to generational talent. (which is what you're up against with Bo Nix's shitty ass as your QB/Leader)
God I love it! [Reply]

Hmm. What about that rookie season where he was … you know, not the starter? [Reply]
I knew it. They're trying hard to hype him right now, but the most impressive "feat" I've seen mentioned is stringing a couple 10-20 yd passes together.
If they'd drafted Rattler and picked up a star at #12, they might have legit reason to be a little excited. Thankfully Denver went full Denver... [Reply]

Apples to Oranges. Lombardis to last place.
2nd string and that was merely a formality as we had Alex smith and used a year of him starting to help his trade value. If we would've had Stidham, Bo Nix's shitty ass and Zach Wilson...Mahomes would've been starting. No question. [Reply]
