 Q: How do you think your first OTA went today?”
VERMEIL: “Ok I thought, you know, the first day is always like a fire drill.

Chiefs owner speaks out on stadium funding for Arrowhead
|
 The statement itself was so vanilla that it ordinarily would not have required a second reading.
Not, that is, until you considered the mild-mannered nature of its author, one of the last real gentlemen in America today. Only then did you realize that you were getting a warning shot across the bow.Full Story... |

CBS SPORTSLINE: Chiefs give Cunningham the goods; now he has to deliver
|
 As spring passes into summer, the heat in Kansas City is not on its defense. It's on its defensive coordinator.
"We have to make this work," said Gunther Cunningham.
The Chiefs assistant spoke the same words a year ago, only then there was a difference: He was operating with the same tired bodies that sank the club in 2003 and drove Greg Robinson out of the NFL. Full Story... |

One personnel chief's take on former University of Texas linebacker Derrick Johnson
|
|
• One personnel chief's take on former University of Texas linebacker Derrick Johnson, a projected top-10 choice who slipped to the 15th slot in the first round (picked by Kansas City): "We just couldn't see spending that much money on a guy who we would have to have taught how to shed a block and how to tackle. He's a great athlete, for sure, but there are a lot of football deficiencies there." That assessment aside, Chiefs coaches have said they were pleased by Johnson's mini-camp performance. Source... |

Hicks remains the rock
|
 He has been through three head coaches, four defensive coordinators and a hailstorm of criticism, so Eric Hicks doesn’t flinch when the rain hits Arrowhead Stadium.

FOX SPORTS KC-Rundown

|
The tentative starters are Kendrell Bell and Derrick Johnson on the outside and Kawika Mitchell in the middle, but Bell could eventually wind up moving inside if the Chiefs determine that's his best position. The Chiefs will be careful not to rush Johnson, their first-round draft pick, but he will also be difficult to dislodge. Keyaron Fox and James Grigsby will receive long looks and could push for playing time.Full Rundown... |
