What has KC done really?. They’ve replaced 2 pro bowl players with 2 other pro bowl players. One is a 1 year rental and the other was a significant overpay. The lost a center and replaced him in what could only be described as a slight upgrade. And they got an aged injury prone guard who signed for a 1.1 mil base salary high on incentives which sounds like a move that Bengals fans would frown on if Tobin did that.
Brown is a terrific run-blocking LT who will be asked to drop into pass protection at a far higher rate and deeper sets than he ever has. Tunney, the 10th best guard via PFF will be asked to excel outside of New England on a new team with high expectations. That’s a lot of moving pieces for a position group that heavily relies on continuity and chemistry.
Will it work out? Maybe or maybe not. I am pretty sure they would have much preferred to not have to make all these moves in the middle of PM unbelievable run.
