Power Rankings: Chiefs Top 10 All-Time Offensive Linemen

10. John Tait

The former BYU Cougar was taken by Kansas City in the first round of the 1999 NFL Draft and really flourished at his tackle position during his five years that he played with the Chiefs. Although run blocking was more of his thing, he was also very effective as a pass blocker as well.

It’s a shame that KC wasn’t able to re-sign Tait after the 2003 regular season, as he was not only a strong player along the outer part of the Chiefs’ OL but was also well-liked among his teammates. He will forever remembered in Chiefs lore as being on one of the best offensive lines in NFL history, which consisted of Tait, Wiegmann, Brian Waters, Willie Roaf and Will Shields.

9. Tim Grunhard

Grunny, as many refer to him, was a very durable center that played 11 long seasons for KC, culminating in a total of 169 games during that span, starting in all but five of them. The Chicago native was known for his grit and toughness at his spot on the field and was one of the main constants in the Chiefs’ offense during the decade of the 1990’s.

Surprisingly, Grunhard only made one Pro Bowl team for his many years of dominance along the Kansas City O-Line. Since retiring from the NFL in 2001, the Notre Dame alum decided to stay around the KC area and is now an offensive line coach for Bishop Miege High in Roeland Park, Kansas.
