In a little less than 28 hours the Kansas City Chiefs will release 22 players to get down to the league mandated 53 man roster limit.
That's about 30% of the team. It's a starting offense and a starting defense.
For many of the players, it's the last time they'll wear an NFL uniform. For others, it's a break until the next NFL team comes calling when someone else is injured and a stopgap is needed.
Many of the undrafted free agents who were brought in primarily as camp fodder will be gone. But, there will be some veterans cut as well. And some that will surprise. On the flip side, there will be some players the team keeps that will surprise you.
With a little over 24 hours to go, I have plenty of questions about the cuts. Here are a few thoughts on the cuts tomorrow that have been bumbling around in my allergy infested head.
Right side of the offensive line
No one is getting it done here. I think Andy Alleman and Ikechuku Ndukwe are safe because they were acquired via trade just a couple weeks ago.
Damion McIntosh or Barry Richardson could be getting a pink slip. Mike Goff or Wade Smith can't feel completely comfortable.
This is, in my mind, the most unpredictable section of cuts out there. The players we thought were solid (Goff) could be cut and the players who knew what they offered us (McIntosh) could stay.
It's all up in the air.
Biggest surprise: Damion McIntosh will stay
***
Linebackers
Zach Thomas? Corey Smith? Andy Studebaker? Lots of question marks.
(For the record, I'm pretty excited about Studebaker and think he makes the team.)
There could be a shocker in there, too. And it could be Derrick Johnson. Last week, Haley said DJ has to "get it goin' a little bit", which to me, might indicate he's not as safe as we all previously thought. It's probably not likely but we can't treat him differently just because he was a first round pick.
Biggest surprise: Zach Thomas cut/injury waived
***
Safeties
Our safeties are almost completely set in my mind. Jarrad Page and Bernard Pollard will man the starting spots while Jon McGraw will backup Page.
But, as we've talked before, one of the more interesting battles on this team comes to the backup safety position. Mike Brown v. DaJuan Morgan.
I've already detailed my thoughts on this. I previously said Brown will win the job and, just because I'm stubborn, I'll stick with that.
Biggest surprise: Whoever is cut between Brown and Morgan.

interesting
does that mean he can still be around the practice field with the team?
if so, he still helps the other LB…

DJ won't be cut but...
He could be on the trade block. He really does need to get it together.

No way
not being cut, not being traded.
He’s being D-Bowe’d, and will respond accordingly

and if DJ doesn't respond
I expect Pioli to play that card close to his vest, and wait until after things have settled down after the cut-downs
I wouldn’t be surprised if we take a flyer there at RT. Might be why things have been so unsettled on the RS of the O-line, hoping to grab a fill-in there as an upgrade. No telling, but I am guessing the work Pioli’s doing as %:00pm Sat approaches is guessing who’s gonna be on the street, and if they can be of value to us.
Cassel vs. Thigpen in Camp should improve the play of both.
Next on the need list: linebacker, and both lines

The thing about Derrick Johnson is, this is his fourth or fifth year
in the league. He has done the same thing since he came into the league. He plays well one game and disappears the next. That might be part of the learning curve for a first or second year player, but fourth or fifth year? No, it is put up or shut up time. Tamba Hali is playing well learning a new position. Derrick Johnson can’t even consistently play his own position? What is up with that? He needs to be an NFL player or go sack groceries.
by G.L. on Sep 4, 2009 2:29 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
He has been coddled
with Herm and Dick as his coaches. Even if Gunter yelled at him, he could always go to unkie Dick or auntie Herm and cry on their shoulders. He didnt respond to that. Lets see if some tough love will get him back in line.

I've been saying D Johnson
could be gone all along,i feel he’s been way too inconsistant for this being his fourth yr.He’s due 1.5 mil this yr and FA next,i say he is no huge hit against the cap,nor is he a huge GAIN or is he a huge LOSS.He just is,pretty plain and dull IMO.

RT/RG
It would be a surprise, but it’s not out of the question that McIntosh AND Goff get cut, Richardson and Ndukwe become starters.
the OL could end up being:
Albert/Taylor
Waters/Smith
Niswanger/Alleman
Ndukwe/Brown
Richardson/Brown
or something like that

my logic
Richardson and McIntosh are about even when it comes to their current level of play, but Richardson is younger, cheaper and actually has some upside. Why not go to the RT of the future instead of the RT of the past?
Same thing with Goff… his upside is non-existant. IF someone else is playing on a similar level, but is younger and shows promise… why not keep the young guy?

So, it was the same as usual.
I’d like to see the new guys with the starting lineup and see how they fare.
by Chiefsfan1970 on Sep 4, 2009 2:25 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
yeah... it's hard to tell
with so many linemen going in and out of the game
it’s hard to see what would happen with 1 cohesive unit.
that may be the only argument for the current line, including McIntosh
they’ve had some snaps together as a unit.
But, overall, as I said in my other post, the biggest problem with the line wasn’t them being overmatched, physically…
it was communication, timing and scheme…
I saw a lot of plays where nobody seemed to know who to block, or the defense sent one extra guy that came untouchd.
Also, the RB were getting to the line before the blockers, so there was no chance to open a hole.

I think some of the trouble came
when they started plugging in different guys.
Richardson is terrible at LT… but I think he was there for the #2 line.
Harris got a lot of playing time, probably his last gasp as a Chief
Ndukwe was OK, but did get beat a couple times
Waters even played a little at C… which should make some of the AP guys happy

he’s been there every preseason game, I think.
Not sure what the coaches were trying to do with that one.
He’s a RT, if anything.

no... he's been playing mostly on the right this year
in fact, last night was the first time I remember seeing him on the left side. I think what Haley was doing is getting the backups reps at other positions where they might need to play if someone gets hurt. And I seem to recall Richardson at LT two years ago some too.

DJ
How could he have gone from being shown support from Haley to cut or traded.Haley was very emphatic about ZT & his changing DJ’s ways.I don’t think he’s lost any ground,I think he just being pushed.I’ve noticed that anyone that Haley is tough on seems to be his people.Never heard a word about Boone & Bam he’s gone.I say he stays & starts.

LB
Studebaker is IN
Mays is IN
Belcher is IN
big surprise: maybe Beisel or Demorrio Williams gets cut… it’s a numbers game at ILB… and there may be an extra guy there.
I think they add an OLB, unless by some miracle Pierre Walters makes the roster…. and McBride could be another surprise cut…. but, he played ok these last 2 games, so who knows

Biggest surprise: Whoever is cut between Brown and Morgan.
Haley has repeatedly said that because special teams are very important there will probably be a spot on the 53 man roster for a special teams ace…why can’t that spot be McGraw and we keep Pollard, Page, Brown, and Morgan?
Marley will be walking soon...she could probably play Linebacker better than some of the guys we had.
by PVChiefsfan on Sep 4, 2009 3:00 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
Could be, but
they are looking for extra linebackers to help with the 3-4. I think safety pays the price for that.
I remember Dawson to Taylor, Kenney to Carson, and Blackledge catching the snap in his facemask. Seen it all...

10 DB isnt out of the question.
Especially if you have 3-4 safeties that play good special teams. So I wouldnt be surprised to carry 5 safeties and 5 CBs

I agree
that DJ wouldn’t be cut, but he could be traded. I can only think of a couple of guys you could label as untouchable. Everyone else shouldn’t feel too comfortable.
I think Demorrio Williams is gone. Just too small for what needs to be done. McBride gone, just because he sucks. Too big and slow for LB and too small for DL. Too bad for him. I would think Beisel would stay just for special teams play at least. Don’t see PUP for Zach Thomas. Why? If he can’t play, cut him. If you want him as a coach/mentor, hire him.

Don't think he makes the plays they want.
He has been making some tackles, but mostly down the field. I think they want bigger guys that can fill the hole and penetrate. That isn’t what Williams does. Saw him just get run over a couple of times last night.

The "make room" players can be cut in the same transaction as the signees.
So those wont be too hard if they’re an obvious upgrade of talent. I’m all for trading Thigpen anywhere for a 5th or 6th and then sending a 6th to the Cards for Long by the way. Welker type WR, Haley trained, tough as nails and can return punts and kicks? Get him in!
