Leon Sandcastle to the mutherfucking house

[Chief Roundup]

my sarcasm machine must be flaccid today.:shake:

Warmack is an OG not an OT. It says that at the end of their names. Right there in black and white. It is not your sarcasm machine that is limp. :D

[Sully]

Five players rated above Smith, but at less needed positions.

Make it happen!

We're getting Geno.

I find it fascinating that the Chiefs are publishing this list.

[milkman]

I find it fascinating that the Chiefs are publishing this list.

I haven't looked at the list at the site, but I' guessing that it's a list put together by that guy from Minnesota, and in no way reflects the thinking of Dorsey and. Reid.

[RealSNR]

Jokeshit is only a 95? But Miller told me he was a once in a lifetime OT prospect.

The media is seriously suggesting we go with the 95 OT over the 91 QB?

Fuck man. Just fuck.

[KCrockaholic]

Based on this Geno is rated as the 7th best prospect.

[BossChief]

Too risky. Off to guard you go, Albert.

[Rausch]

Based on this Geno is rated as the 7th best prospect.

:rolleyes:

[Hammock Parties]

Amazing how Landry Jones stock dropped like a rock over the last year.

[Hammock Parties]

Haha. This guy was at the top of Pioli's draft board. LMAO

Yeah, I just think that's very dangerous for their PR department to do if they are not planning to draft QB. This analysis, published on their site, makes Geno look like a pretty clear-cut, no-brainer #1 for this team.

[RealSNR]

Amazing how Landry Jones stock dropped like a rock over the last year.

It's his own damn fault. He wanted that extra year in school. What for, I don't know. He had to have draft experts telling him, "Dude, you're not going to get any better or change anybody's mind. Declare now and maybe you can sneak in as a 2nd round pick"

[Rausch]

Other than Dion in a 'fro there is no clear stud in this draft.

Take the most talented player of need...

[NJChiefsFan]

Their website never seems to give any opinions at all. Just reactions and fluff pieces. No matter what I do or don't agree with here, I do like that they posted an actual opinion. That site is free to speak again for the first time in 4 years, even if it is still in a biased capacity.

[Strongside]

We must take Warmack at no. 1 overall.

[milkman]

Clearly.

4 of his top 5 are fat guys. And then a fat RB. Classic Pioli.

This draft may have a record number of underclassmen, but it may not be the quality that people are expecting. How I see the top 10 juniors now, keeping in mind the fact-finding on them will be ongoing for the next three months before the draft:

1. Luke Joeckel, T, Texas A&M. Strong candidate for the first overall pick. Three-year starter at left tackle in the Big 12 and never red-shirted. A true height-weight-speed prospect who plays with good athleticism and body control. Will play early while he develops better hip and core strength. Good teammate too.

2. Dee Milliner, CB, Alabama. One of the youngest players in the draft (20), but a very experienced corner from the best-coached DB group in the country. Milliner has the flexibility, intelligence and experience to play outside corner and also line up in the slot. Should contribute on special teams early in his career.

3. Sharrif Floyd, DT, Florida. Also 20, Floyd is a strong, athletic defensive lineman who, at 6-foot-3 and 303 pounds, has position and scheme versatility. Good competitor and tough player against the run and pass. Not great sack numbers, but consistently disruptive in the pass rush, and the type of player who makes those around him better by making the offense concentrate so much on stopping him.

4. Bjoern Werner, DE, Florida State. Born in Germany, Werner learned football while at a Connecticut prep school as an exchange student. Played just two prep years before signing with Florida State. Two-year starter at left end in FSU's base and sub packages who shows surprising natural instincts, good hand strength and athletic ability. Pretty impressive to see he had 13 sacks in the ACC in the 2012 season.

5. Johnathan Hankins, DT, Ohio State. At 6-3 and 335, he still has the athleticism to line up at multiple positions on the line -- not just at the nose. Active and instinctive, and showed improvement from 2011. Very good player versus the run that needs to continue to improve his every-down consistency.

6. Eddie Lacy, RB, Alabama. Low-mileage rusher (355 carries in three seasons with the Tide) who played behind two outstanding backs early in his career (Mark Ingram, Trent Richardson). Averaged 6.8 yards per rush in his college career behind an offensive line better than some NFL lines. Good receiving skills, and a willing blocker. He should be an every-down back in the NFL.

7. Jarvis Jones, OLB, Georgia. Began his college career at USC in 2009 and transferred closer to home after suffering a neck injury his true freshman year. Highly instinctive and productive college player, but at 6-3 and 241, could be a tough positional fit. Dominated certain games (Florida), disappeared in others (Alabama).

8. Keenan Allen, WR, Cal. Originally committed to Alabama out of HS, but decided to join his QB brother Zach to play together at Cal. Allen is a big (6-3, 210), savvy and highly competitive WR who has played the slot and outside. Lacks top speed, but is very natural and quick. In a WR class that appears to lack elite players, he may be the best.

9. Alec Ogletree, MLB, Georgia. Tremendously talented athlete at 6-3 and 232, and should be an every-down NFL inside 'backer or middle 'backer. Has the skill and ability to contribute immediately all defenses as well as special teams. Jumps off the tape and could have the most upside of any underclassman in the draft. But some off-the-field issues will need to be studied before giving him a final grade.

10. Gavin Escobar, TE, San Diego State. Three-year starter who was hampered this season by a knee injury that he played through. Good height-weight-speed prospect at 6-6 and 255 who right now is more receiver than blocker. I'm high on his ability to produce as an offensive tight end right now in the more wide-open NFL offenses. He's what we call an "F-type'' tight end, a receiver who can play off the line probably more productively than as a blocker right now.
***** will be doing some work for NBC Sports Network at the Super Bowl.

[Psyko Tek]

Leon Sandcastle to the mutherfucking house

have they got jerseys available yet?

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Easily the best QB available and a 90 plus grade by most scouting services. Yet people wonder why we try and bitchslap any and all doubters.

What was his draft board? I haven't seen it.

That was actually his list of top underclassmen. Clay is being a little dishonest here.

And a big fuck you to clay for making me defend Pioli somewhat

Had someone try and tell me the other day that he'd rather ride it out with Cassel than draft Geno. I asked why and he said that he doesn't like scrambling QB's, need a pocket passer and that Geno is very inaccurate.

Felt like doing that above gif IRL

[Mr. Laz]

quite a few WR's worth having this year

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Definately. I think our needs really match up to this draft well. Grab Geno and either a starting WR, corner, or safety in Round 2. Pretty good haul.

I once had a statistics teacher in college named Harold Dyck (pronounced "dick").

Hairy dick. He must have hated his parents.

Wonder if he was any relation to Gladwyn Dyck. Had him for algebra at Lindsborg High School back in the late sixties.

It's not their opinion. These ratings come directly from nfl.com's combine participants page (http://www.nfl.com/combine/participants). I don't know who came up with the rankings.

[MahiMike]

You watch, Mike Glennon will end up being the 1st QB in this bunch to win a Super Bowl.

Guys with that kinda neck talent only come around once a decade.

[boogblaster]

if we trade for a QB .. I like the ILB ..
