Chiefs Waive Kolby Smith and others

Chiefs waive RB Kolby Smith, QB Matt Gutierrez and four others (DB Andre Jones, OL Nick Landry, OL Jermail Porter, TE Leroy Banks) 3 minutes ago via TweetDeck

Moeaki practicing again must of pushed Banks out. I kept hearing Leroy Banks was doing pretty good and was a pleasant surprize so far.

I am also truly surprised to read that Banks is off the team. He seemed to be doing a great job in OTA's,

Best of luck to these players wherever they land(unless they land in Oakland, of course)

Banks was better than O'Connell. But Pioli traded a seventh round pick to draft O'Connell so thats probably why he wants to keep him around a little longer. Also, Porter has been our second string RT most of this year also. They probably just cut Smith now, because they knew he would get hurt during TC and wouldn't be able to cut him then.

That surprised me to about Banks. I thought he had O'Connell beat. O'Connell must be a better blocking TE.

Denver picked up Kolby Smith...they have too many RB's to be interested, probably just interested to see what we are doing

We are SCREWED

Nah with all the backs there Kolby probably wont even make the final cut.

The Broncos are just willing to pay him for a week or two to find out how we plan on using McCluster.

Kolby was injuired again I think... He was solid...but with Mccluster, Charles, Jones...we are fine!
