Losing KJ seemed like a shocker, and it sounds like his potential jumped off of the screen.

People slam message board posters for being wannabe GM's, but if you ever want to know the truth about players, go to the message board of their team.

That is great to know for sure. I guess he was really good at Clemson too and with Hobby being here who coached Clemson's D-line KJ could shine with us. We really needed another End with upside after the Cam Sample and Myles Murphy injuries and Gunter retiring.

Just like I think Chase being in the Slot more on Offense could be a thing of the future, a big FB that punishes these smaller Linebackers could be a way to combat their speed.

Having one that can catch the ball and be a solid blocker could be invaluable. A guy that I really wanted us to draft in the 7th was Carson Steele from UCLA. I think he does both well and will become a weapon. Of course KC signed him as an UDFA and he played very good this preseason making their 53.
Oh well......

Interesting, good stuff Casear2727. I got a feeling the Chiefs are still the team to beat in the AFC. They just seem to make the right moves when they need to. And they signed Perine as well.

Apparently he played LE at Clemson with Murphy at RE
Clemson was pretty good so I’m surprised he made it thru waivers in a league that so desperately needs pass rushers and especially pass rushers from low picks This guy shouldn’t have ever been able to come here but I’m not mad

This sure sounds like a hell of a cut down day waiver wire pick up.

Seems a nice pickup.

Let's hope Henry can be our next BJ Hill who we got in a trade for Price on cutdown day I believe.
That was one our best trades ever. Hanry for nothing is sweet if he can help in a rotation at DE.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.

I remember an interview I saw with Mike Ditka, who said he wasn't fast enough to outrun anyone, so he would just wait till they caught up with him and knock the crap out of them. I realize A-Trains don't grow on trees, but there has to be this type player out there and could just plow through todays defenses. Remember, Alstott did this in the days of the heavy linebackers.

I was for Steele in the Draft myself. Still, bastid Chiefs. Starting to dislike them as much as the stealers. Need to beat these guys bad. But at least the Chiefs don't have to cheat to win as much as the stealers did.

I have wondered that for a while now. Defenses are getting faster but lighter. Will it cycle back to where you can use thumpers to grind down the smaller defenses. However the rules make it attractive to throw the ball.

I think this too. You read enough comments and minus the extremes on both sides and you get a pretty good feel for what the player is. |
