As far as I’m aware, the Chiefs have generally carried the following numbers<\/p>\n
2-3 QBs<\/p>\n
3-4 RBs<\/p>\n
6-7 WRs<\/p>\n
3-4 TEs<\/p>\n
9-10 O-line<\/p>\n
9-10 D-line<\/p>\n
9-11 DBs<\/p>\n
5-6 LBs<\/p>\n
Punter, Kicker, Long Snapper. They tend to keep the Offense and Defense fairly evenly split, 24 on one side, 26 on the other, or 25 each.<\/p>\n
Based on what you’ve seen this offseason, the draft, OTAs, free agency, etc., how many of each do you think the Chiefs put on their 53?<\/p>\n
Personally, I think they’ll do 3 QBs, 4 RBs, 6 WRs, 4 TEs, 9 O-line, 9 D-line, 10 DBs, and 5 LBs.<\/p>\n
If they keep those numbers, and they keep the predictable ones, I think the roster spots people are competing for are TE3, TE4, WR6, O-line depth, and D-line depth. <\/p>\n
I expect the DBs to be Delane, Fulton, Williams, Hicks, Conner, Gilman, Elam, Kohou, Roland-Wallace, Canady — if anyone of those gets beat out for a roster spot, I’d expect them to try and trade them away. <\/p>\n
5 LBs, Bolton, Tranquil, Bassa, Cochrane, McDonald — it’s possible someone displaces McDonald or Cochrane, but I don’t know which position group they’d shrink to keep 6 LBs(Unless they decide to give up on the Nussmeier experiment)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As far as I’m aware, the Chiefs have generally carried the following numbers 2-3 QBs 3-4 RBs 6-7…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":684025,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[67],"tags":[110834,399,15977,398,396,397,99],"class_list":["post-684024","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-ncaa-football","tag-arrowheadlines","tag-football","tag-kansas-city-chiefs-news","tag-ncaa","tag-ncaa-football","tag-ncaafootball","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/684024","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=684024"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/684024\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/684025"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=684024"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=684024"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=684024"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
