Nico Johnson was a two-down type of guy and it looks like Sutton is rapidly moving away from that in terms of lining up a prototypical 34 defense. He's employing a version of the Dick Bumpas TCU 425 more than anything at this point. Guys like Derrick Johnson are ideal for that at the NFL level - long, rangy dudes with a little size. It's why I thought that Kyle Van Noy in the 2014 Draft would have been ideal for the other inside spot. Depending on how he tests at the Combine/Pro Day, a guy like Mississippi State's Benardrick McKinney wouldn't be a shocker as our first round pick. Eric Kendricks isn't going to test as well as his brother did and his size doesn't do him any favors. He's not a long guy - more compact at his size, which isn't much. They'll hope to compare him to someone like Bobby Wagner, but he's not as thick as Wagner, doesn't shed blocks like Wagner and most definitely won't have the measurables that Wagner did. And Wagner went in the later part of the second round. After the Combine, I'll be surprised if Kendricks goes before the fourth round. |

Am I a moron for thinking that Denzel Perryman is just as good as someone like Kendricks, the only strike against him being he's about 1-2 inches shorter?

Perryman is absolutely fierce. His size and play style are reminiscent of Zach Thomas. Oh, while we are on Kendricks: Quote:

If there is a LB I am really high on it's Stephone Anthony. He's 6'2" 245 lbs and has the nastiness to shed blockers and did extremely well at the Senior Bowl.
In coverage drills he showed the speed and agility to cover RB's and TE's in the middle of the field. He's more info on him. http://www.tigernet.com/story/footba...ior-Bowl-13467 I'm just not a fan of Kendricks rd 1 because I don't want to wait for a year or two to put him in the gym and get strong enough. He's gonna have to gain at least 10 lbs. Why not just take Anthony who is perfect size, has the production and his only knock is experience in coverage (we do have a good coaching staff)?

McKinney is a very athletic guy. He's definitely a three down linebacker who has the potential to thrive in a system like Suttons. (Sorry SNR, but if he tests the way people think he will, he'll most definitely be on the Chiefs radar.)
He's played inside and outside, is very long and can move well in space. He's not as smooth as someone like Van Noy from last year, but he's not a heavy legged run plugger like Rey Maualuga or Brandon Spikes. |

From the sound of your post I think you have no idea about a weight program on any level and likely would be stunned at what goes on even at the local high school level like Rockhurst or Blue Springs. Now there will be some strength increases just from natural maturity as boys become men, but it has jack shit to do with going from UCLA to the Chiefs. I'll be very interested to see at the free agent combine they want to implement how guys measurables stack up vs when they were in the combine coming out of college.

he said it's not about the specific program being that much different from what he did in college but the amount of time that becomes dedicated to the craft and how specialized it is for each individual player. Moreso that it becomes a main focus and they aren't having to worry about anything else other than football at this point. He said the expectation is that no matter what school or where a player comes from, the strength and conditioning staff with the chiefs expects that they can put 10 to 15 pounds of good weight on a guy in a full offseason if they're asked to by the coaching staff. 'm skeptical about that amount though, seems excessive. |

I can't even imagine what kind of training regime he's implemented 30 years later. |

Not really sure about the "time" thing either unless he is referring to nutrition and rest. Any more than 4-5 hours week with weights will likely result in over training if they are "natural". I'd also question the way a lot of guys spend that newly found free time and if it's focused on S & C for football in the off season when they are back home away from the team.

Even the small schools start team strength and conditioning now in the 7th grade if they have a good coach and parents that don't bitch too much about their kids having to go above and beyond just standard practices and games. Last edited by BigCatDaddy; 02-08-2015 at 06:09 PM.. |

It's funny Fisher was a 230lb college freshman and I'm sure someone will say "dude just needs a few years in the weight room to bulk up"
