Chiefs Confidence Chart

I wrote this on the 26th of August, and I won't edit it. It will look foolish in hindsight, but that's what I thought at the time.

He's all 80 guys on the current roster, in order of confidence that they will be on the 53 man roster.

GUARANTEED 100% LOCKS

37- Mike Goff – OL
38- Monty Beisel – LB
39- Thomas Gafford – LS

THE REAL TOSSUPS

(The totals at the 53 man cutoff- QB- 3, RB- 4, OL- 9, TE- 3, WR- 6, DL- 6, LB- 9, DB- 9, SP- 3)

This looks like a well thought out list that will be pretty accurate once all is said and done. The only question is will they really cut Damion MacIntosh? It probably depends on this weekend's game.

I like it all, but there should be no way Copper makes this team.

Nick, this is kind of off subject and in the future, but some players who are in contract years and would look good in chiefs uniforms next year: Steve Breaston WR, Mike Gandy OL, Derrick Burgess DE, Karlos Dansby LB, Gary Brackett LB, Ellis Hobbs CB. If we get even 3 of those players next off-season, that would be awesome.
