I wouldn't have a problem with KC drafting Dupree but I think he's going to be long gone by #18.

Yeah.....I think he's going top 10.

Dupree gives them leverage with Houston as well.

In his defense, there's only about 10-12 impact players in this years draft.

No. While he can drop back effectively, he doesn't have the lateral agility to be effective in that role.

The guy is 270 lbs. And ****ing fast.

He's a rush end.

There is no way on god's green earth that he'll ever play MLB.

Other than Collins and Humphries I don't think I'd be thrilled with the other tackle prospects. I do not understand the Arik Armstead hype. I might be the only one on this board who would be okay with Gurley.

Perfect world would be an occasional 2 LBs inside who can both cover and rush, essentially 4 rush-backers on the field at the same time.

At linebacker you can have all the measurable in the world, but at the end of the day it means nothing if you don’t produce and Zach Vigil produced more last season than any other inside linebacker in the draft. His performance was consistent week in and week out with two negatively-graded games in 15 weeks.

When you think of a small school linebacker with big production getting little draft buzz it’s easy to assume that he’s a poor athlete, but that’s not the case with Vigil. His pro day numbers put him right around the inside linebacker average for almost all the events compared to historical combine figures. When you watch his tape, though, his coordination and instincts both jump out as above average.

The middle linebacker graded well above average rushing the passer, in coverage, and against the run. Vigil’s 76 total stops were the second most in the draft class and his 36 total pressures were the second most as well. He was also a very reliable tackler missing just 12 all year compared to 131 combined solos and assists.

154 Tackles
19.5 TFL
9.0 Sacks

My board:

1. Williams
2. Cooper
3. White
4. Fowler
5. Winston
6. Shelton
7. Parker
8. Waynes
9. Beasley
10. Mariotta (I guess, a big reach).
11. Peters
12. Dupree
13. Collins (OL)
14. Scherff
15. Gurley
16. Ray
17. DGB
18. Peat
19. Humphries
20. Kendricks

Id be upset if they drafted my MOM at 18. She has Parkinsons now and her memory is getting really bad and she has to wear a diaper.

Hog, this is wrong on so many levels that I cannot begin to count them. And here I thought you were better than that! However, given that this is Draft Week, I'll just chalk this up to you being overwhelmed with "draft emotion".

Boys, we need to get this draft behind us lest Hog loses touch with any/all levels of personal deportment. C'mon Hog, hang in there for just a couple more days!!!

This is a pretty deep draft. Usually, I am set on two-three players with the first pick. I can't say that's the same this year. I am not a big fan of taking OL or DL in the 1st round this year. I've seen Armstead and Erving mocked a few times to KC...and I'm not a huge fan of either, particularly in this draft where OL and DL depth is good.

List
* No OL in the first.
* No DL in the first.
* A Baldwin-esque WR in round 1 ala Devin Funchess.

Looking for an impact/1st year starter at CB, ILB, or WR with the 18th pick.
