@AdamSchefter: Needing more OL depth, Chiefs signed former Redskins G Mike McGlynn, per source.

Never going to happen.

It's obvious given that Kush has never once received first team snaps in training camp or in preseason that the Chiefs have zero interest in starting him at C unless there's an injury to Hudson.

That's a massive evaluation problem that the Coach and GM are responsible for. Complete ****-up on their part

Reid doesn't care about position. Just the best 5. There would be cons to a move like that. For one is Kush even ready ? Two this isn't an ideal time for a move like that with the job the center does making calls and the exchange. Three Hudson has played very well there and provides some stability in the A gaps. If he was winning some one on ones with Poe in camp that's impressive. Even though it's just camp. I don't think it's the right move cause I don't think Kush is ready for that big of jump be we will have to wait and see

In other words, they're concerned he's going to miss time during the regular season.

They never should have let him play all season with a bum shoulder.

we could have played with Albert/Stephenson. They pushed Fisher because of pride and because they needed to know what they had before letting Albert walk.

Fisher played all year long with a shoulder that needed surgery and they might have screwed shit up permanently

Yep. When lukenbach is your only vet alternative. They're lucky mcglynn was available. I thought they'd have to settle for a semi retired out of the dumpster Mike Goff type of help at OL.

They're lucky at WR that Hammond and Wilson look descent cause Jenkins and Hemingway are dinged up and can't be counted on.

A couple of series of snaps with Alex just for in game exchange reps would have likely taken place. It would be damn risky this time of year

Sounds like they got it wrong (at least at this point in time).

thabear04 · 08-27-2014, 10:38 AM

McGlynn is a 6-4, 325 lineman who has six seasons of NFL experience with the Indianapolis Colts (2012-2013), Cincinnati Bengals (2011), and Philadelphia Eagles (2008-2010). The latter team, the then coach Andy Reid Eagles, leads one to think McGlynn could make the roster for the Chiefs because of his experience with the offense.

His last two seasons with the Colts have been something of a disaster, with -21.1 and -30 overall grades in 2012 and 2013. Before arriving with the Colts he was league average for the Eagles and Bengals, which leads one to wonder if McGlynn just was not a scheme fit for Indianapolis.

At this stage the Chiefs could use anybody who can compete for the guard jobs with Jeff Allen moving to right tackle to fill in for the suspended Donald Stephenson. Jeff Linkenbach and Ricky Henry were awful Saturday night. Improved play at left guard and the development of Zach Fulton would go a long way towards getting the offensive line back on track.

To make room for McGlynn on the roster the Chiefs released offensive lineman Ben Gottschalk.

Maybe but Vick was just a dog killer. Incognito is a worthless piece of trash. Nebraska treats football players like kings and he gets kicked out of there. Still he would be an upgrade for the line though.
