Chiefs ‘Alvin Kamara Clone’ Among Reasons Scout Raves About Moves

Chiefs Ohio State OL Josh Simmons ở tuổi 32
The Kansas City Chiefs have added some nice pieces this offseason, and analyst Louis Riddick loves what the AFC champs have done.

The Kansas City Chiefs‘ offseason business has divided opinion. Some think the franchise has lost its fear factor and isn’t at all sold on the organization’s moves.

And then you have ESPN’s Louis Riddick, a former pro scout for multiple NFL teams who loved some of Kansas City’s moves.

The offensive line was the biggest issue, and the Chiefs signed Jaylon Moore in free agency, and then doubled down with the first-round selection of Josh Simmons to fortify the left side of the line.

For Riddick, the Chiefs may have solved their roster issues better than most this offseason.

“I think getting Josh Simmons, that could end up being the steal of the draft,” Riddick said on NFL Live. “Along with him and Jaylon Moore, if they can go ahead and solidify the left side of this offensive line, with some of the other additions they have, keep an eye on Brashard Smith, he is an Alvin Kamara clone with 4.3 speed they have got a lot of things going on right now in Kansas City, they may have addressed their issues as good as anybody.”

Many expect Simmons to push Moore for the starting role sooner rather than later, while the addition of Smith, who was a receiver for his first three years of college at Miami, then turned running back last season, is lightning in a bottle.

The Chiefs have been missing that in the backfield, and while Isiah Pacheco and  Kareem Hunt are good pros, they don’t have the speed to worry defenses.

Now the Chiefs have Smith, along with Elijah Mitchell, to inject some speed into the rushing attack.

So, with the offensive line additions, the hope is that Patrick Mahomes, who was sacked a career-high 47 times last season (including playoffs), will be better protected. Now, he might also have some speed wrinkles in the run game.

If both of those moves pan out as many hope, then the Chiefs, as Riddick says, might have addressed their needs as well as any team this offseason.
