Re: Offensive Linemen
I will scramble and run with McNabb, Culpepper, etc. if I need to convert a 3rd or 4th down and im losing or it's a close game because for some reason, whenever I need a huge conversion, my receivers tend to drop the ball, get hit and drop the ball or the ball will bounce of their head, arms, side, legs, chest, etc. and fall incomplete. In other words, I have more confidence in converting by doing a roll out and taking off then I do passing. I will stand in the pocket if im playing with a QB who has no mobility though. I love playing with the Colts but Manning is as slow as **** and isnt going anywhere. With a QB like Manning, you have to be a pocket passer but with his attributes, that doesnt bother me at all. I love passing with Manning to Harrison, Wayne, Clark, etc. It's almost like the superior version of the "greatest show on turf". LOL. Chiefs are crappy but so are my 49ers. Lucky for me though, my second favorite team is the Dallas Cowboys because of one player. Being a 49ers fan, can you guess what player? Chiefs do have some good players though. L.J. is awesome and one of my favorites overall. Their receiver who they drafted last year (Bowe if I remember correctly) looks to be a franchise type receiver. Defensively, Allen and Johnson are great at DE and OLB respectively. Pollard at SS is also good. The OL needs to be rebuilt though. Roaf retired two years ago and Shields retired last year. Wiegmann was released I think and so was Welbourn. The only guy left is LG Brian Waters who's an excellent guard. If im KC, I try to draft OT Jake Long to play LT and put Bober at C or RG and go from there. QB wise, they need to just stick with Croyle for a full season if he's healthy and see if he's the answer. Huard isnt the long term answer so wasting time by having Croyle sit on the bench is horrible. Especially, since the OL is being rebuilt, having a franchise QB who'll be around for the long term is important so the chemistry can be built upon them and the QB. Oh well, at least you're not a fan of a team who's paying their QB over $33m over the next three years. *is a pissed off 49ers fan* |

Re: Offensive Linemen
What was the point of the crib anyway? Getting harrassing phone calls from Jamie Kennedy? I'm still looking for the option that will let me get a 2k5 restraining order against him. On the upside of the crib though, the NFL trivia game and the air hockey are nice diversions.
Dwane Bowe from LSU. Yeah, he was definitely a bright spot last year. Hopefully he becomes the first legitimate #1 receiver the Chiefs have probably ever had. And an improved o-line would be wonderful. Especially for those of us playing the video game version of the team.

Re: Offensive Linemen
My fave fantasy rosters though are the ones I make where I'm the starting QB of the Chiefs. Call me an egomaniac, I won't tell you you're wrong. I love those rosters, it takes the game from just being competitive to something quasi-personal. There's more at stake when that's "you" behind center. I wear #3 even if it's retired by the Chiefs. It's fantasy right? oh, and in my defense, my overall ratings aren't 99 in every attribute.
Oh, and here's a prediction for the draft: McFadden is the next Reggie Bush. He can't run up the middle. He doesn't run through anyone. Watch his footage in college, he ran around and away from everyone like Bush did. McFadden is basically ineffective between the tackles. I noticed it in the bowl game VS Mizzou. I thought, "Well, maybe he doesn't wanna get injured before the draft." But then I watched some draft gurus break down tape of him and, yes, he's not good between the tackles and he's not physical. McFadden will have a tough time getting more than 3.5 yards a carry. Even with all the athleticism. Cuz what really matters in the NFL is discipline and skill. And that takes work that it seems a lot of top-flight athletes don't wanna make the effort for. They think they can just out-athlete everyone instead of out-executing them through consistency.

Re: Offensive Linemen
I started to wonder about D-Mac as well. He is bigger than Bush and I think he's going to have a chip on his shoulder aka A.Peterson, that is unless he goes to Oakland were no one pans out. Can't wait to see the draft, seems like it takes longer to get here than Christmas did when I was 8

Re: Offensive Linemen
Hopefully McFadden does pan out. I had fun watching him for 3 years. It's not I dislike him. Although, when it comes down to it, Mendenhall has better pro-skills.

Re: Offensive Linemen
^^^^^
If you're talking about DE Jared Allen, he was a 4th round draft pick in 2004. I have each team listed in a year by year wordpad document that includes their draft from that year. Allen was the only bright spot from your 2004 Draft Class. |
