2009 Mock Draft
 
I thought this was odd...

"The draft order in this mock draft was determined by calculated judgment on how I believe the teams will fair this season. All of the prospects in this mock draft are eligible for the 2009 draft, but just because they’re eligible, that doesn’t mean they will declare. With that said, congratulations to the Dallas Cowboys for winning Super Bowl XLIII and to the Kansas City Chiefs for finishing with the worst record, as they continue to rebuild their football team. The Chiefs are now on the clock…"

I'm starting to think that, around the NFL, the Chiefs lack cred when it comes to this rebuild thing. Herm needs to call a press conference to straighten this sh*t out.

I think as easy as our schedule is next year and good a draft class as we have coming inthere is NO reason to believe that 8-8 is not a strong possibility. Herm is really the only one that could hold us back from that.

Or Brodie Croyle either completely failing or getting injured early might have a part in that.

Let's hope of the best.

Pablo 05-12-2008 11:44 AM

I'd gladly take Crabtree in that position..or Oher.

I'd rather have a beefcake line or a pimp WR corps than Tim Tebow. I'd rather have Thigpen back there chuckin the ball than Tebow.

picasso 05-12-2008 11:54 AM

Croyle has failed already, in not winning a single game yet.

dj56dt58 05-12-2008 11:56 AM

so with the first overall pick, we are taking a 2nd rounder?

Yeah, he should have just blocked for himself, ran the ball, and caught all of his own passes...

Brodie definately didn't wow anybody last year, but it's absurd to say he's a failure because he didn't win with last years offensive squad.

Do you even realize how terrible the Chiefs running game was last year?

Ridiculous..a terrible running game is a direct reflection of your offensive line.

I agree.

I've always thought Tebow was going to have to be one of those guys who switches positions when he gets to the NFL.

He's in a spread offense, seems like all you hear about is how big/strong of a runner he is.

I'm not convinced he's anything more than just a running QB in a college friendly scoring system.

Croyle had 9 chances to win 1 game. He did not, that is a failure.
The same team won games before Croyle took center stage with an old, beat up, back up QB. I can't believe some of you guys are standing up for a QB that hasn't even proved that he can win a game in the NFL yet.

You had 2 chances to make 1 valid point.

Fail.

Larry Johnson anyone? Brodie was kind of without his service for his starts...that might have been an issue. Just maybe. And it doesn't matter if he was at top form last year, teams gameplanned LJ, and when he went down they sure as hell weren't going to gameplan Harris or Smith.

I wouldn't worry about it too much, Mr. picasso. It's just like the Planet. There are guys who (early in their posting career) can post 700 or 800 times without making any sense, whatsoever. Sometimes it just takes a while to get the hang of it.

Besides, lots of young NFL quarterbacks have problems winning in their first seasons ... even those with good lines and offensive coaches with actual brains and things.

ChiefRon 05-12-2008 12:52 PM

First of all, if we're drafting #1 overall, it won't be used on a "project" QB.

But really, does everyone here just go along with the "experts" that we won't even win as many games as last year??? Even with the schedule we have? Geez, talk about pessimistic.

I mean, it's a stretch to guess who will win these games right now since we don't know about rookie holdouts, additions/subtractions after June 1, training camp reports, etc, but does everyone only see 3 wins from this schedule?

I'd rather be underestimated.... Last season was a big let down after going 4-3 and then 9 losses in a row. I mean, I didn't think we'd win an SB, but I was hoping for more than 4-12... I like this "If we have 6 or more wins, this is a productive season" feeling that I have. 6 wins aren't that hard to come by.... (I didn't say this last season, so I figure if I say it this one, it can't possibly hurt.... and I'm ready for the repercussions if we don't win 6 or more... this quote can be placed in my signature....)

Really, you must me mentally challenged. How can you say that so matter-of-factly. I mean, you could have said that you don't think he has the shoulders for it or something like that. I think he wasn't given a legitimate shot last season. He needs a little more help than 2 options to throw to, especially with the leagues worst OL and literally NO running game. How can you evaluate him based on that situation. I can't think of any situation which would be worse for a QB to get his first chances to start in than our team last season.

Croyle's had TWO years to do something, not just one. He was horrific in Pittburgh in 2006 and couldn't eek out a win in 2007.

All I can say is that I'll be happy when there can be no more excuses made for Croyle.

I'm comparing what they had to work with when they started, which was nothing. When they finally got the players to win they succeeded

Delano 05-12-2008 07:30 PM

It looks like there is a bit more elite talent in the '09 draft. Even if the Chiefs don't pick in the top five, they'll still get an elite playmaker.

I think comparing Croyle's career to two Hall of Fame QB's is tenuous at best.

Teams have been built around QB's before that couldn't succeed. Like Dilfer in Tampa Bay or Alex Smith in San Fran or David Carr in Houston. The list is endless.

There's are dozens of examples of teams that were built around a QB, only for that QB to be not worth a shit and the team had to move on.

When has Croyle had a chance with the proper tools to work with? He had no O-Line at all, HOFers would have been murdered by the OL last season.

Why is it so difficult for you to understand that he needs the "tools" around him to have the OPPORTUNITY to succeed. No one is placing him in Canton.

What I don't understand is how Brodie Croyle was beaten out by Damon Huard with those same "tools" and how Huard was able to win 4 games (and many in this forum think he should have won 6 - Houston & Chicago) while Croyle won zero.

Are we to assume that Damon Huard would still outperform Croyle since the "tools" have been upgraded?

I can tell you exactly how Huard won 4 games and Croyle won zero: Larry Johnson. Huard lost all 4 of his starts without LJ and Croyle never had a start with him in the backfield.

So why didn't Croyle perform better in the pre-season? And why didn't he perform better or win any games when Kolby Smith was putting up 100+ yard games?

Tebow ain't an NFL QB.

This ariticle has zero credibility.

Pre-season doesn't mean shit and LJ only had 3 carries in his single game. No NFL team is going to be worried about or game plan around Kolby Smith.

I'm not saying Croyle is great - or even good. I'm just willing to reserve judgment until the 2008 season plays out.

I believe he has what it takes, but at the same time he should stay in college to polish his game more.

Yeah..he better polish up his patented run up the center's ass technique.

Or maybe polish up learning the UF system, because that'll help him the the league.

I don't expect us to be good at all, but if we end up picking #1 overall, you can say goodbye to Herm and Carl, and hello to a new front office.

He ran up the center's ass enough to throw for 3286 yards, 32 TDs, 67% competion % and only 6 int's with a 172.47 QB efficiency rating (2nd highest in the country) you ignoramus.

I think Croyle would be the first to go, especially if Tebow and Stafford declare for the draft.

Pasta Little Brioni 05-13-2008 09:08 AM

Tebow was what a sophomore last year? heck he has plenty of time to fine tune his passing skills before heading to the NFL.

not to mention it was his first year getting an opportunity to play...

Pasta Little Brioni 05-13-2008 09:15 AM

I really don't see how anyone can judge Croyle playing behind not only a bad line, but one of the worse that has ever seen the field in the NFL. Throw on top of that LJ being out and I'm willing to see what he does this year before passing judgement. The thing that does trouble me is the Detroit game where huard came in and lit it up after croyle got hurt, but hey if brodie struggles again this year QB will be a huge target come next years draft.

Elway had some success with crap teams around him. Shit, let's be real. A couple of those Super Bowl teams had absolutely no business being there...and they wouldn't have been if it weren't for him.
