Another running back committee emerging?

The Chiefs have Larry Johnson signed for a while, they reportedly like Kolby Smith quite a bit, and now they select Jamaal Charles.

This might’ve been a best-player-available sort of move, and he’s definitely a change of pace from his backfield roommates, but it’s surprising they didn’t go for more defense with someone like DE Kenny Iwebema or hit the OL with a choice like Oniel Cousins.

We like their choice of Bard Cottam at TE for sure, though. Injuries kept him from breaking out in a big way over his career, but this big kid can motor in pads and has solid hands. He really impressed us at the Senior Bowl, and he’ll be an outstanding red zone target. We like him much more than Seattle 2nd-rounder John Carlson.
