    I asked this question here and there. I think that it's really important to understand what the problem is. I read that the Chiefs also run the same basic O-line scheme. So I'm not sure that I buy Popper's explanation. I would love some of the experts here, especially Steve to look at this.

      I always figured the smaller/athletic Oline guys typically had more stamina than the classic power guys, therefore had an advantage late in games, not the other way around.
      Still do, until convinced otherwise

        I also thought the smaller guys spent s lot of time cut blocking, which I’m not seeing here.
        Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.

          It was a bad play.
          It is happening too often.
          BTW Lamp may be the only Olineman I want to keep now.
          Maybe Bulaga.
          One new UFA + Rd1 through 3b, two selections, should be on the front burner.
          SMH.
          Always studying Oline.
          Always.

              FWIW I've spent my time running hundreds of TDN Machine mock drafts. Trades both frivolous and reasonable have been entered. Experiments with diverse draft strategies have been utilized.

              There will be a fistful of Olinemen available early round two. Our best scenario will always be to end up with a second pick near @#36, should Sewell be gone.

              Trading out of prime time, should we be able to sucker any of 31 teams into trading up, can surely result in stockpiling top 100 picks to build defensive talent and depth. There are plenty of Corners and Pass Rushers. 3TECH and run defense remain issues for us. What a mess.

              That is what THIS Big Board reveals. It is what it is. Ideally, we get two plug n play Olinemen.

                If you are trying to get something realistic, I don't think a draft simulator is going to give it to you.

                like this one from last year lol

                  Hundreds of simulations at TDN has given me a much clearer picture than what most others have.

                  They have a solid big board.

                  Compare it to Pro Football Network, On the Clock, Drafftek, anybody you care to.

                  Add in NFL Draft Scout, Ourlads.

                  Do some leg work.

                  There are always missing pieces, especially this year.

                  It's going to be quite a Senior Bowl...and quite a ninja Top 150.

                  Don't give me shit for putting the work in.

                    Chiefs also have an offensive genius in Reid and a stud QB in Mahommes. That helps a lot.

                      Interesting comment (not his exact words) from Hank Bauer the other day after watching Herbert throw the first interception: "Why would you have him roll out? He's a big strong guy who can see over the defensive linemen and he has a rocket arm? Horrible design!"

                      I think Lynn got it into his head that the offenses of the future feature roll outs. He doesn't assess players strengths, but sees them through a lens of his making.
