The Offensive Line

Who’s In: Eric Fisher, Parker Ehinger, Mitch Morse, Laurent Duvernay-Tardif, Mitchell Schwartz, Zach Fulton, Jah Reid, Bryan Witzmann???

Who’s Out: Isaiah Battle, Corin Brooks, Joseph Cheek, Jordan Devey, Josh James, Damian Mama, Mike Person

The Chiefs have traditionally carried eight offensive lineman on the 53 man roster. Seven of those spots are incredibly easy to predict. The eighth spot is a huge guessing game of which unknown the Chiefs believe has the most potential. I ended up picking Witzmann simply because he was on the roster to end the 2016 season and plays tackle. With Fulton able to back up on the interior line and Reid able to play both tackle and guard I went with a tackle as the eighth man. I have absolutely zero confidence in that pick so if you want to make a case for someone else in that spot I could be easily persuaded.

Now let’s move on to the defense.
