It's sort of amazing how much faster a preseason feels with even one less game. The Chiefs only have one more chance -- Friday night's matchup against Minnesota -- to figure out who they're going to carry on their 53-man roster. With over 30 roster cuts looming this weekend, there's plenty of narrative meat on the bone heading into Labor Day weekend and the start of the regular season. So what's the biggest storyline of the week? Arrowhead Pride's Pete Sweeney called into 610's Fescoe In The Morning on Tuesday to try and answer that.
"I think we're to the point on the offensive side of the football where it's, 'Can wide receiver Cornell Powell and running back Darwin Thompson survive the cuts?'," he said. "Because it's going to be some really tough cuts for Brett Veach. I tend to think because of what happened last year, they end up keeping 10 offensive linemen. I know that's a little liberal but if that's going to be the case, skill position players that might have made it in other years maybe might be impacted by that. And I think that Cornell Powell simply has not shown enough, despite even being a draft pick, to necessarily make it for sure, so let's see what he can do."
