:-) Are you serious? Campbell refused to go in because he was petulant about losing playing time. Wills refuse to go in because he tweaked an existing knee injury. [Reply]

Every stone should be turned over. Every single one. [Reply]

Another broke dick reclamation project.
Sounds like a quitting version of DJ Humphries… pass.
Wills has played a full season once in his five year career… including only 13 games combined the past two seasons.
The fetish people here have for shit players… :-) [Reply]
If you're not going to evaluate "shit" players, you're unlikely to actually find a solution. The Chiefs are in the unenviable position of trying to find a LT while never having a top 10 pick. It is what it is. They should be trying literally everything to fix the problem, no matter how far fetched, as long as it's cheap. [Reply]

Why does the solution at LT have to be cheap?
Because they are paying top AAV at RT?
If you going to keep trying to address the LT position on the cheap… then expect the same results. [Reply]

Precisely, because we always draft last or next to last, the Chiefs need to be real good at finding diamonds in the rough and turning over every stone. What they CANNOT do is draft a tackle w/ the second round pick and go into next season thinking "we're good" [Reply]

The pieces have to be cheap. Because they're going to have try a lot of pieces. There isn't a magic bullet here. It's all about volume at this point. [Reply]

They aren’t going cheap at RT, center and LG… the opposite actually… yet they have to continue to be cheap at arguably the most important position that protects Mahomes’ blind side?

He didn’t have COVID the past two seasons when he only played in 13 total games.

Interesting.
They don't have the money to address LT once and for all BECAUSE of those existing contracts.
If you're waiting for them to back up a truck full of money for Stanley or Jackson, prepare to be disappointed. [Reply]

Prepare for a repeat of this season… that’s the reality if they keep trying the same strategy of filling the LT position on the cheap.
Definition of insanity… keep trying a failed strategy.
And the fact that Jawaan Taylor’s contract is hindering their flexibility to invest more in LT just adds insult to injury considering how much of an epic fail he has been at RT. [Reply]
