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

This board wanted to bring back Donovan Smith and he was also a broke dick his last 2 years :-) [Reply]

But off the top of your head, can you think of a better solution?
The Chiefs are simply in a terrible position to get a quality LT.
I don't give a fuck about Humphries at this point. I think people are just bringing up because they can't think of anything else.
Options are extremely limited, unless you're up for giving Stanley or Robinson a fuck ton of money..so if you don't wanna do that you need some kind of cheap vet so you don't have a competition of nothing but young guys. [Reply]
Yeah, after it was made glaringly obvious just how fucking raw Suamataia was going to be his rookie season, and I honestly do not understand how Reid let that one through the cracks. [Reply]

I'm guessing he was just the king of shit mountain. The "least bad" of all the bad options coming out of camp. [Reply]

I think the most likely thing you see is Humphries gets brought back and with a full camp is ready to go if a young guy can't take the job.
That sounds like a possibility as well, but I had no clue Ronnie Stanley was a free agent. That's intriguing, if Baltimore doesn't resign him that sure seems very tempting. [Reply]

Yea the contract he's gonna want will probably be kind of insane... [Reply]
Yes. Precisely. Which is why folks thought it might be a good idea to backstop that shit with a LT that Mahomes at least had some experience with, even if he was only a backstop and was more or less broken down. That's a pivot, not a plan you go into the office season with. [Reply]

But he might actually be worth it, unlike Robinson. Considering how hard they went after Trent Williams when he was available, I think they might be all over this. I can't see Baltimore letting him walk, though. Although, he is 30 and they may be hesitant to pay him with his recent injury history, even though he was healthy all this season.
Good to know there is at least an elite option out there if they want to go balls deep. [Reply]

But who? Donovan Smith is broken down. He's done. Who else was out there that would have been a possible backup? They're just in a shit position all the way around at LT. [Reply]

We are squarely in the, either pay top end of the market rate for a FA, make an insane trade or pray we get lucky, LT spot. [Reply]
