I know everyone likes him a lot more than Reagan, but all I hear from you guys is the special team play he brings.
I want to know can he block for ronnie and ricky (not that Reagan could)
 
All I know is that in all the Kansas City boards I went to, they all love him.

He's a former Chief BTW.

Actually Regain blocked very well, but couldnt catch a cold. He was a big part of what Ronnie was doing last year before RB got hurt.

He lost his job since they want A FB that can catch the ball, Hennings offense likes to feature the RB's and FB alot.

Grisby is a very nice reciever and an ok Blocker from what I saw in Preseason, heres hoping that he can bring the same boom that he brings on ST's.

I like Boomer and Ricky was rushing over everyone with Boomer ahead of him. The hole the line opens has something to do with it, but I love the kids attitude and he leaves everything on the field. The guy has no respect for his body what so ever.
 
I've been watching the Season 3 of Hard Knocks lately, when they did the Cheifs' training camp. Grigsby is a beast with a lot of heart for the game. I'll be pulling for him hard this year.

If you want a better look at him check out that show if you can find it. If plays well and if it looks like he'll stick around I'll get a Grigsby jersey in a heartbeat.
 
I will tell you, My Favorire play that we used to run years back was the Full Back Screen to Rob Konrad, As far as my memory serves me well, i dont think it was ever stopped short of the 1st down.

I never understood why we only ran it a few times.

Well if he played with the Chiefs since he was drafted in 2005 if he was blocking for LJ who put up numbers like this.

2005 336 carries 1,750 yards
2006 416 carries 1,789 yards

I know alot of that was take O-line but some of those blocks that broke him for big runs had to been Boomer's doing. so to answer your question YES
 
I think he actually played LB in 05 and 06. They converted him to FB for the 07 season. He got hurt in training camp and I honestly don't know what happened to him after that.
 
theres no such thing as a great FB anymore. Seriously, talk about the most expendable position in the entire league.
