Kevin Boss goes to Kansas City to provide insurance for Tony Moeaki, who is injury prone. In his absence, the Chiefs didn’t get a lot of production from the tight end spot in 2011. If Moeaki is healthy, Boss fits in 2 tight end sets because of his ability to run block and his ability to be a threat in the end zone. He regressed as a pass catcher in 2011 with 28 catches for 368 yards and 2 touchdowns in his first year in Oakland, but had 33, 42, and 35 catches from 2008-2010 with the Giants so he can pass catch some as well. The Chiefs are getting him at a reasonable rate, 3 years, 9 million. They’re buying low 1 year after the Raiders signed him to a 4 year, 16 million dollar deal, which they released him from this offseason after he disappointed and with the Raiders cap situation.
