Mock (12/8)
Assumptions:
1. The Chiefs go 9-7 and miss the playoffs. All staff is retained. 2. S Eric Berry retires. 3. OLB Justin Houston is franchised. 5. The Chiefs re-sign C Rodney Hudson 4 years, $20m ($6m guaranteed), DE Kevin Vickerson 2 years, $4m, S Ron Parker 3 years, $6m ($500k guaranteed). 6. The Chiefs cut: QB Chase Daniel, WR Donnie Avery, WR AJ Jenkins, TE Anthony Fasano, DE Mike DeVito, OLB Tamba Hali, CB Marcus Cooper 7. OLB Josh Martin is tendered. 8. The following players walk in free agency: RB Joe McKnight, WR Junior Hemingway, WR Frankie Hammond, TE Demetrius Harris, TE Richard Gordon, OT Ryan Harris, OG Jeff Linkenbach, OG Mike McGlynn, CB Chris Owens, S Kelcie McCray 9. The Chiefs re-sign the following players for minimal deals: WR Jason Avant, ILB Josh Mauga, S Kurt Coleman, LS Thomas Gafford 10. The Chiefs sign the following free agents: WR Jermaine Kearse (Seahawks) 3 years, $9m ($2m guaranteed), TE Lance Kendricks (Rams) 2 years, $5m. 11. Compensatory picks: 3rd, 5th, 5th, 7th On with the show: <iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/IuH_FhrKcs0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> 1.20. OLB Alvin "Bud" Dupree, Kentucky You cannot win in the NFL without a quarterback, protecting the quarterback, and getting to the other team's quarterback. The Chiefs have their QB, and I like the value for Dupree here better than I do for any OL. Dupree is a physical specimen who can really flourish with some great coaching. He has churned out consistent stats in a tough conference, and now that the team has to replace Tamba Hali, they are going to need to make sure they can get passrush from his spot. Dee Ford is a good start, but no sure thing; Dupree gives the Chiefs fortified talent at the position. 2.52. WR Rashad Greene, Florida State Greene is an excellent receiver in that Florida State scheme. Lacks perhaps the elite speed or size, but is solid in both respects. His best attributes are that he's a sharp route-runner and his YAC ability -- both things which are sorely needed in an Alex Smith offense. 3.84. CB Cody Riggs, Notre Dame The Chiefs prefer tall corners, but will go short at the slot position if they like the talent. With Chris Owens unceremoniously departing, the Chiefs invest in a guy with everything but size. Riggs is 5'9", but plays with fantastic physicality out of the slot. 3.98. CB Cam Thomas, Western Kentucky Thomas is much more in the Chiefs' vein of CBs. Over 6'0", very long, excellent speed, and will need a ton of coaching. 4.120. OG Laken Tomlinson, Duke A huge, muscular bowling ball, Tomlinson plays like a more athletic Zach Fulton. 5.160. ILB A.J. Johnson, Tennessee The Chiefs need to keep working to replace Derrick Johnson, if his recovery this year doesn't work out. 5.174. NT Brandon Ivory, Alabama The Chiefs need to keep fortifying behind Dontari Poe -- maybe someday they'll understand they need to rest their best defender. 5.176. OLB Owamagbe Odighizuwa, UCLA The best name in this draft is also a sneaky-aggressive passrusher. 6.196. TE C.J. Uzomah, Auburn It's no surprise that the split second the Chiefs lost their 3rd TE, their offense started to struggle. 7.235. FS Detrick Bonner, Virginia Tech 7.254. WR Jake Kumerow, Wisconsin-Whitewater |

**** Dwayne Bowe. He needs to be sent packing.
|
Quote:
We can cut Bowe and bring Avery back, but we can't realistically do both. |
I would ideally like the Chiefs to trade up for DeVante Parker, so they could part ways with Bowe in 2016.
|
I can't do this anymore.
|
Quote:
What we don't have is the option of paying $14 million to a bottom tier wide receiver. |

Quote:
Go ahead and let go of Bowe and then only bring aboard Jermaine Kearse in free agency. I guarantee you that Alex will eat twice as much shit next year as he did this year because of bad WRs. Unless we find Randy Moss in the draft (and that ain't happenin') or acquire a guy like Maclin or Cobb in free agency (even less likely to happen) we're not going to get any better at the WR position if we cut Bowe. |

So we're adding another OLB rd 1 bc we aren't sure of Ford? We're ignoring the OL that is a complete catastrophe?
|
It also worth mentioning that Bowe was being marked by the best CB in football.
|
Is DGB gone in this scenario?
|
Berry will NOT retire.
Dude is going to take the year off. He will come out 2016 as the first man out of the tunnel, and Arrowhead will explode with cheers and tears. Bookmarking this post. |

Unfortunately, I'm not sure about that one. My friend, albeit not in Berry's physical condition, was diagnosed with lymphoma at 26 and it took him 2-3 years to be declared 100% cancer free. |

Quote:
2. How many people do you know with lymphoma. 3. Do you think you should shut the **** up. |
Quote:
2. 3, 2 of which are surviving. Family and friends. 3. No, because **** you, Direckshun. Also, **** Palestine, while I'm at it. |

Bahahaha sorry... lol |
Lighten up guys he was just being an optimistic fan. No offense meant by his post.

Quote:
There is no way we can draft OLBs in back to back drafts. Talk about fu@king reeruned. It's also idiotic to follow that up by using our next to picks on one position. I actually like a number of your picks, its the approach is just all wrong. If we don't address the oline with one of our 3rd rounders I'll be pissed. Shit the reason we get the extra pick is because of Albert. Seems right to invest that pick back into the line. |

People bitch and moan that we blew a 1st round pick on a guy to replace Hali next year and now people want to draft a OLB to replace Houston. Some of you guys are ****ing bipolar or something.
|
Quote:
Fact is, (as DA_T_84 knows) every case is different but going off what little we know and the statistics... it is entirely possible he could play NEXT year. Mario Lemieux came back the same season. So, I have to go with DA_T_84 here. **** Palestine. |
Quote:
That would be the second dumbest move in franchise history. |
OLB? You are trolling
|
Quote:
Fair enough. And congrats, of course. |

Yeah. Neil's up there though.

Letting Gannon walk wasn't exactly our finest hour.
Neither was trading a draft pick for Herm Edwards. LMAO Or, of course, Eric Fisher. |

I'm certain that streak isn't over. |

**** YOU. |
LMAO
Direckshun's predictions are just ****ing hilarious |
If he's really gone from here, it's one of the bigger losses, IMO, CP has ever had.

If you miss him that much, I'll start posting a different dumb ****ing mock draft every other day with my own dipshit analysis. |

I miss him. Dont always agree with his evaluation of players, but he's one of the few here that takes the time to watch these guys in detail and then share his thoughts. It's not about always being right or wrong, but it's fun to do and to look back on.
|
Why did he leave?
|
I just want to post in this forum because nobody ever does this time of year so my name will show up on the main page for days and then ill feel special RIP Ereckshun go chiefs

I don't know if that's true or not though. |
He had a baby (his wife did) and seems to be pretty busy with his work (according to Facebook that is)

Gonna be sad not seeing a slew of Direck mocks this year.
