Not really. Based on all the different preferences expressed by Chiefs fans (who probably did more research on this than I have), I just thought there must not be one guy who stands out above all the others so I thought it would make sense to trade down. But the way it went down, I have to believe they got the guy they wanted and I'm OK with that. It's a position of need, it wasn't an incredible reach, and the team had other good options so this must have been their guy. I trust Carl.

Calling him a 3rd down DE makes him out to be a pass rush specialist. He's not. He can rush the passer, but he's good against the run too.

It could be worse. We could be drafting like the Bills...



(Sorry CntryGal)

You'd be bitching if they picked anyone besides who you thought they should have.

True but that is something that is fixable.

A very disappointing pick. I was holding my breath for Jimmy Williams.

Granted, the Chiefs usually do worse. At least this time there was speculation that Hali might sneak into the first round. The Chiefs managed to only reach by about 10-12 picks. Now we've got yet another defensive lineman.

Plus, it's really important to have 3 starting defensive ends. You really only need 1 good corner in today's NFL.

I think that was research Holmezz. Just not as much as you wanted. :)

thanks for the info though. that gives me a modicum of hope.

No, we'll need him to play corner.

If the Chiefs trade back up for Jimmy Williams I won't be quite as mad as I am now......

BS..He was projected to be picked anywhere from 20-30.

No. Lawson, Williams, Holmes, Jackson, joseph would've been fine with me.

I'd have liked Carl to trade down, but maybe no one was willing......or maybe Carl and Herm were worried about him being taken. Either way, I think it's a solid, if unspectacular, player.

Have you not been paying attention to what Herm has been saying about playing younger players? He wants them on the field so this could be Hicks last year if he makes it thru camp.
