Assuming that we are stuck with Cassel (no matter how I vote), I clicked WR, NT and OLB. If we can pickup Fitzgerald, I would go with C, NT and OLB (not necessarily in that order).

QB, NT and Center would be my top three priorities.

Since they are going to be keeping Cassel around, how about
WR
NT
Center
OL/center
OLB
OL
That being said, I just hope they go with BPA every time, but they won't.

No way. I'd make an exception for a star in his prime like Fitzgerald, but there is no way I'd build around another aging veteran like Lee Evans, Chris Chambers, or Bobby Wade.

Sleeper 2nd round outside linebacker - Mason Foster. Huge bowl game over the Huskers.

IDK looks like some good athletic prospects to me. Have to wait until the draft ramps up to see where they are slotted.

I love the way Charles was used this year. In fact, I think it was almost perfect.

And you're right, Jones aged in dog years throughout the season. He was absolutely useless by about week 12 and got no better from there.

That said - good backs slide every single season. From Foster to Blount to McClain, etc... - It's not hard to find a nice powerful runningback with a bit of speed that can go out there and run the ball a handful of times/gm.

In 2 seasons, if we draft/develop well over the next couple years, perhaps a 1st/2nd round back is a nice idea. But right now we have much bigger fish to fry.

jesus god, does the sanctimonious bullshit from you ever stop?


and to top it off, you literally don't know what you're talking about when it comes to chiefs players and their histories on this board...

you are literally ignorant on the subject


for all that is holy shut the **** up

Perfect, until the team really needed him.

That's exactly what's been done.

There are many people that think any criticism or evaluation of a rookie is unfair or dishonest because "he just needs more time!!!!" and sometimes that's just assinine.

Sometimes a bad player is just bad from the get go.

Charles appeared to have been injured when he did a dumb thing and tried to run someone over on the sideline.

Look at how he was used in the 2nd quarter. It appears to me the plan was to keep him fresh during the regular season and take the governor off a bit during the post-season. He appeared on his way to that kind of game before the Refs let the Ravens dogpile him and he made a poor decision on the sidelines.

Just because the plan didn't go to script doesn't mean it wasn't a good plan. He was fresh and at his best for the playoff run. Then he got injured - shit happens.

It was a dumb plan. **** keeping people "fresh". Do the Pats keep Brady fresh? KC got lucky San Diego floundered down the stretch.

Depending on the FA signing, But if we fill some needs in FA. Then I have no issues spending pick 2 or 3 on a RB... They are a dime a dozen and we could find another Charles in rd 3.

Its really hard to get a feeling for the draft without knowing or seeing what the FA plans are...

Once that is done, then we can hammer out the Picks and hopefully have another solid year...

i picked NT/WR/RT (though you could argue C is as needy as RT)

..i can't believe we're going in to year 3 of 3-4 with Edwards as NT....imagine our D with Raji instead of Jackson...

i would love to get Powe, but doubt he last till the low 2nd

we need a FA WR and a draft pick WR...

take the best OL/WR/3-4LB available in the 1st....



we need a late round rb, or a vet FA pickup too..jones is toast...

Yes, a quarterback and a RB are the exact same animal.

I mean no team in the league has instituted a timeshare at RB. None of them.

Did we not enter the playoffs with a rested Jamaal Charles playing some of his best football of the year? Yes, yes we did. And was Charles not a guy that was subject to getting dinged up all season? Why yes, yes he was.

So I'm flummoxed that some people seem hell-bent on ignoring the wisdom in doing what we could to ensure that our most dangerous weapon was available for the most important part of our season.

Sorry, as bad as everyone WANTS him to be the answer, Charles isnt going to be the type of back you lean on when you need him... He history is starting to prove it to us...

They might wanted to run him Herm style and rape his ass for 40 carries sunday.. But didnt happen and now we know why...
