Sounds like the rival fans are getting concerned.

. DJ has looked great in OTAs and Chuck Cook even said he couldn't believe that DJ fell into our draft position. He also scoffed at DJ not being able to shed blocks. He said show me the tape, you won't find any film of DJ struggling at anytime. Keep ****ing doubting Derrick Johnson, punk.

DJ was the most decorated linebacker in college football. You dont get accolades like that if all the other team has to do is put a blocker on you to render you ineffective. Im pretty sure that would have been figured out before he wreaked havoc on opposing offenses all season. Obviously he can beat blocks, but due to his speed, he often doesnt have to.

Even some of the people over on the Mange were pissing and moaning about the Chiefs getting Derrick Johnson. Perhaps theyre a bit further ahead of the detractors in the talent recognition department, although that is hard to believe when they back Jake Plummer as their starting QB.

One quote in particular went something like this.

"It doesnt matter. Whoever we pick isnt going to take Derrick Johnson away from the Chiefs."

And for all you dingleberries out there listening to Mike F'ing Mayock, you might consider the fact that every time he called Johnson weak at the point of attack, he only showed ONE CLIP. And he showed it over and over and over. One bad play in two seasons worth of havoc. Is that all Mike Mayock can come up with?

I might have considered his diarrhea of the mouth if he had a few more clips to back it up with. I mean, if DJ was so bad at the point of attack, he should have had multiple instances to show us all how bad he is. Instead, in two seasons worth of film, he found one bad play, and he blew it so far out of proportion that its sickening.

I guarantee you that you can take any player in the league, and pick out a play that they just got punked out on. Its going to happen to everyone from time to time. Mayock was talking DJ up like mad at the combine during his drills, ready to bow down and give him head, saying that this guy could do anything that any pro team could ask of him, but then on Playbook he dogs him out and calls him weak. Mike Mayock is a douchebag, plain and simple.

I guess we Chiefs fans should be thanking the stupid prick though, as the first 14 teams apparently bought into his bullshit, and he fell to KC.

Indeed!

Derrick Thomas was weak against the pass. He was never able to cover the tight end. It was because he was always covering the QB. Good players play to their narural strengths and work on their weaknesses.

DJ has done nothing to convince me that he cannot be dominant at any LB position. I think DJ will find a way to overcome his "weakness".

Didn't you guys just re-sign a LBer that is about 4 foot 11? How does that dude shed blockers?

According to Tampa Bay Ian doesn't cover them very well at all...

Are you guys really putting Ian Gold on the strong side?

No they are going to force Williams to play out of position to cover up for grossly overpaying Ian

How do you mean? We're not starting a rookie out of position on the strong side.
