Humphrey wouldn't have been as good in Cincinnati as he is in Kansas City. The Chiefs run a very similar scheme to what he was used to at Oklahoma and Cincy was looking at a RG not C so he would have switched positions.

People are hard on Carman but if you watch the tape you can see why they drafted him to play guard in their scheme even if he wasn't a superstar as a rookie.
