You think it’s Madden and you can have studs that you’re 100% happy with at every position. It’s not. |

I'm not even asking for a stud on the interior, just some guys who aren't pushovers like Reiter and Wylie are. I'm also of the opinion that Schwartz probably isn't around much longer, and while hopefully Niang steps in for him, he's probably not going to play at the same level as Schwartz in his prime. We're going need improvement elsewhere on the OL to make up for the dropoff there. |

With Watkins potentially leaving, DRob needing to be replaced/improved, Keizer needing to be euthanized, we can pretty much just go BPA. |

Patrick Mahomes has been sacked 12 times in 10 games yet if you only get your information from Chiefsplanet, you'd think the Chiefs lead the league in sacks taken.
The Chiefs also lead the league in scoring and are 2 yards behind Arizona for #1 in total offensive yardage. |

The development of Allegretti goes a long way in fixing the line. And I love the fact that Fisher has played so well next to him. And while the Chiefs have a knack of drafting guys in the mid and lower rounds and getting solid players. Let's be honest, those players sit and learn for a year before earning their spots. And as a resident O-Line homer, I don't want the Chiefs to go crazy and spend a bunch of high draft picks on the line. But as mentioned above, we need a Center badly. And it would make go a LONG way in improving the entire line play. I think Niang is a great prospect. And hell, I'm high on Darryl Williams too. Regardless, I'd spend a 2nd or third rounder on an offensive linemen if there was a guy I wanted at a position of need.
Look, we can debate this all we want, but if Veach is sold on Niang, Williams, and we get LDT back for a year, then all you defensive homers will probably get your wish. |

When Rankin and Schwartz return, an Oline of Fisher, Rankin, Allegretti, Remmers, and Schwartz would protect Mahomes better and produce better results on interior runs, imo. Allegretti was drafted for the center position because Veatch liked how he performed at the position in the East/West Shrine game. It would be helpful in draft prep if he could lock down the position in the remaining regular season games.

That doesn’t mean you don’t ever do it, just that you don’t have to. If Creed Humphrey is there at 29-32, he might be BPA. If Wyatt Davis somehow fell to our pick, I’d probably be the first to pound the table for him. At the same time, I fully expect the Chiefs to value WR, DE, or LB more. |

The Chiefs know what he can and can't do. If they decide to look to him as the starting C next year, they can probably make that move with confidence. And if it doesn't work out (or if Allegretti gets hurt), it's not like they're not going to have backup options. We'll be fine. |

I'm a fan and hope he can lock in a spot be it center or guard
I'll gladly trade a little pass pro ability for some brutish nastiness, and this big mob muscle looking mfer seems to have that in spades |

I find it amazing how plug and play the Oline has been. We out rushed the Raiders last night. Haven't really noticed a drop off since Osemele went down. Guess we should just trust that Reid and Bert probably know what they're doing.

We did a ton of quick passes, RPO’s, runs and some screens. OL will always look better that way, however our long drives drained the Raider defense by the 4th quarter which is why Pat had forever to throw the ball on that last drive. |
