That's funny since this is a shitty year for WR's and rushbackers in the first round...and OT's.

So see rainman that list has to change you can't go reaching for need.

This team is not playing that badly on the defensive line. They're mostly holding their ground and giving RBs few lanes to run through.

The Chiefs are getting killed because they're giving up way too many big plays. And that's happening because our Safeties and LBs don't know their gap responsibilities and they take horrendous angles. In the San Diego game, Brown was responsible for almost all of Sproles' big runs. Watch Pittsburgh--you don't throw screens against them because Polamalu is running at the running back like a freight train 1-2 seconds before the QB even releases the ball.

And I disagree. Watch how many plays there are where our safety is 2-3 steps away from making the right play. Our safeties don't make plays. Plays come to them. Think of a single play this year where you saw the safety read the QB's eyes and break up a pass. Think of a single play wher eyou remember the safety getting after the QB on a safety blitz. Think of a single time this season when you remember the safety blowing up a screen play. Reed and Polamalu do those things all the time, 16 games a season.

You can build the foundation around solid players. But you need to have a few playmakers like Polamalu if you ever want to go places. And it's getting harder and harder and harder to find those guys in free agency these days.

Hello James Sanders...since Patrick Chung can step in and start with Merriweather..

If that really happens I won't be a fan of this team anymore.

Exactly my point!!!. They get to roam and freelance because they have a front seven who do their jobs. There whole defensive approach is for them to roam and make plays. The Chiefs are not even close to this kind of talent in the front 7, therefore you could put Polamalu or Reed in a Chief uniform and they would become slightly above average safties.

Football is a team sport and it all starts upfront.

Sanders. Good call.

The better team to look at is the 90s Chiefs.

One of the top two or O-Lines in the league, a playmaker on D in DT, but not a single other playmaker on the offensive side of the ball, except in Montana's single playoff year with the Chiefs.

4th best record among teams in the 90s, yet bounced in the first round in the playofss, except again, in the Montana year.

They averaged about 11 points a game on those playoff games.

Why?

Not a single ****ing playmaker.

The Dick Chiefs did have a playmaker in Priest.

You don't get to pick the year the players happen to be available.

2 awesome safety prospects are in the draft this year, why would you pass on them to take a mediocre LB prospect?

Then how are we going to pick Jordan Shipley to be Wes Welker.

I disagree they make plays because they very very talented..... you add playmakers regardless of position... this upcoming year the best playmaking talent early in the first is at the safety position

But at least they made the playoffs because of that Oline......you win up front you have a chance, you lose up front and all the playmakers in the world is not going to help.

Like last year with the QBs.

Oh. Yeah. I should've had TE in there. And HB.

My god. It would have been easier to make a list of positions we don't need.

"Atleast they made the playoffs"

The battle cry of a loser fan.

Look I'm a huge CJ Spiller fan but I'm not going to pimp him to be the Chiefs pick because it doesn't make sense.

As a clarification, my list had nothing to do with the talent of this year's draft class. I'm just talking about the Chiefs' needs.
