Not me. I personally saw him play the season that he was ranked the worst Tackle in the league and dude was beyond terrible. How the Texans wasted a 3rd round pick in that TURD, was beyond me. (Although it makes sense now, seeing what they have done in recent years) I called him a lazy, often injured, total waste of a roster spot the second he arrived, and caught a lot of heat for it from some. Maybe I was wrong, because he surprised the shit out of me when he played "OK" at Guard, but then he promptly went back to his often injured ways, so...:shrug:

A Rankin Wave is when there's no other option so you use your hand to wipe an especially muddy one and are trying to fling it off your fingers

He hasn’t been able to even practice in forever.

No surprise he was waived from a crowded snd talented OL room.

He started 5 games at Left Guard in 2019 before injury cut his season short

ThyKingdomCome15 06-17-2021 04:49 PM

Kinda stinks he didn't pan out. When Fisher was out the coaches chose to move Remmers to LT and Wylie to RT. That says a lot of what they thought of Rankin. That's disappointing.

Rankin looked ok until Cam injured Schwartz which tore up Rankin's knee on the first play at RT.

He didn't show up for offseason workouts or minicamps, making it pretty apparent that regardless of his skillset, the dude quit.

In 2019, he started next to Cam Erving for 5 games before tearing his pec while the Chiefs scored 24, 30, 24, 26 and 32 before being placed on IR.

But the bottom line is that the guy must not have loved football because he'd still be on the team if he did, especially over guys like Wylie and all of the other scrubs.

The talent was there...something must be up with the recovery.

I still think that would have been the best move.

They should have kept their line intact and given Rankin help instead of flipping Remmers, who was destroyed by Denver in the 2016 Super Bowl, and sliding all of the guys, save for Reiter, down a slot.

I don't know if that would have been enough to make them competitive but at least 4 guys would have been at their same positions as they'd been for most of the season.

srvy 06-17-2021 08:36 PM

No surprise he was waved. He just could never recover from the injury. That he made it this long without any production just proves the dire straight our o-line has been in before Veach moved on it.

Or just the desire to play in the NFL.

I've said it time and time again but some guys play in the NFL because they genuinely love the game and others play in the NFL because they can.

I think Rankin was one of the latter.

oldman 06-17-2021 10:14 PM

When he didn't show up for the mini-camp, I was pretty sure he was history. You can say injuries had a lot to do with it, but I agree with Dane that he just didn't have the desire.

wazu 06-18-2021 07:15 AM

I can understand not loving the game. And if you have other options then fine. But man, check back with that guy a few months into having a real job.

Eh, if he was smart with his money, he should be a millionaire. If he's still smart with his money, he could get any job doing anything and be OK.

If he's smart.

oldman 06-18-2021 08:51 AM

I don't see him as any great loss. The Chiefs signed Wyatt Miller and still have Prince whatever on the roster. There will be plenty of camp cuts and guys trying to make a comeback to pick from.

YOU WILL ADRESS PRINCE TEGO WANOGHO CORRECTLY HE IS IN FACT ROYALTY

edit: I just found out that if i name my grandfather king of his small village in Northern Michigan, I also will be a prince.

Is Prince Tega Wanogho a real prince?
Wanogho started all 13 games in 2018 at left tackle. He was named a second-team All-SEC pick for his play in 12 starts at left tackle during his senior campaign. Received medical flag at Senior Bowl. Prince is, in fact, a prince in the real sense of the word, as his grandfather was the king of a village.

Exactly, and it was well documented. J.J. Watt actually called him out about it during a couple training camps.

Rain Man 06-18-2021 09:49 AM

I'm starting to think that every guy in Nigeria is a prince.

I was assuming that Prince was his actual first name. Is it a title and he wants everyone to refer to him by that title? I'm confused.

I assumed that maybe with less communication and transport they just assume every area roughly the size of a county is a kingdom. Also with less medical and more danger, life spans may be shorter so theres more princes waiting in the wings with stunted life spans. If there were a chance id get mauled by a lion i would have had kids and married much sooner than i did.

I spent more than a year trying to arrange a study tour for a delegation from the Nigerian water ministry. My main contact was a travel agent with connections to the Nigerian government. And a Prince. My staff would say, "The Prince called".

Dunerdr 06-18-2021 12:17 PM

The more you know!

The answer is that Nigeria as a federation of 36 states, has no central prince. But there are parts (tribes/ethnic groups) in Nigeria where a person is chosen traditionally or by other means to represent a particular community or town as the highest traditional authority. Such a person’s ruling power or jurisdiction are effective only within the town he rules as the traditional head. This means he submits to the state/regional and central government of Nigeria. Most tribes in the south-eastern Nigeria (the Igbo people) call such a person ’Igwe’ or ’Eze’ which translates as King in English. And like for every other King, his male child is the prince. Whose princely privileges can not go beyond the boundaries of where the authority of his father covers (though princes are accorded some respects by people from other towns, tribes or different ethnicities who have regards for Royalty when they see one). Other privileges the prince enjoy outside the boundaries of his town might be on merit or by affluence (unfortunately, not all of them are rich). Hence, there is no Prince of Nigeria but there are princes in some tribes in Nigeria. I hope this answers the question.

MahomesMagic 06-18-2021 01:19 PM

I had hopes for him at guard at one point.

But yeah, at this point it's a numbers game where he just doesn't fit in.
