Charles Omenihu, DE signing with the Chiefs

Overview

Omenihu (pronounced oh-MEN-uh-hoo) steps off the bus with a physique that says NFL defensive end, but his skill-set and football acumen are still very raw. He looks like a 5-technique and lines up there, but he simply doesn't have the grit or anchor needed for that line of work. As a 4-3 end, Omenihu sets a stronger edge and has shown some potential to mix power with get-off as a rusher. His game lacks instincts and consistency, but he's got the traits and potential to become an eventual starter if he can continue his development.

Wow, we're matching the Rams move for move!

So, no championship?

Is he another Samson ebukam?

Who does he replace in the rotation? Ford, Key, Ebukam?

Jordan Willis part II

Key will be cut probably. Moved to the PS.

Charles Omenihu's pressure rate this season, 13.8%, is slightly higher than Nick Bosa's (13.5%). That ranks Omenihu among NFL's top-10 among defensive linemen.

The caveat: Omenihu has fewer snaps than most of the other leaders and no sacks yet. But 209 snaps isn't a tiny sample

I doubt CO gets double-teamed as Bosa does.

He'll play end on base downs, probably move inside on passing downs. Basically he's Armstead and Armstead is Kinlaw.

Lack of snaps aint gonna stop the analytics department!

What does it tell you about our DL ? Dee Ford wont come back ? Ebukam is not the upgrade we thought ? Etc…
as our FO has swung and missed on so many draft picks and FA signings upon further notice this is the next one
And please dont even mention JJ Watt in the same sentence as i read in another post… 🙄
Funny that Ks just said he would be surprised if we signed anybody before the deadline, all that BS PR talk…

Him and Ebukam need to sent to the Dumpster Squad

Who would ever complain about adding another pass rusher???
