Mock (3/14/13)
This one will be a little more indicative of Andy Reid's trade-happy nature.
Assumptions: 1. They get one compensatory pick, an extra third (Carr). 2. The Chiefs pull off a trade down from the #1 draft spot by offering a steal of a deal to the Bills. They swap 1st rounders (this puts the Chiefs at #8 overall) and the Bills deal a 2nd rounder and 4th rounder this year, and a 2nd rounder next year. 3. The Chiefs then package their 2nd rounder with the 3a pick (3b cannot be traded) to move back into the bottom of the first, around pick #21. 4. Trades down from the 4th rounder, swapping 4ths (dropping us about 10 slots) and accumulating an additional 5th. 1. OT Lane Johnson, Oklahoma It's pretty clear at this point that Andy Reid is not sold on Donald Stephenson, and at this point, no deal has yet been made for Branden Albert. So the Chiefs take a guy they think can man the RT spot this year, with the hopes that Johnson has left tackle ability for 2014 and beyond. 1. CB Xavier Rhodes, Florida State No corner has been signed, and this roster is both thin and shallow at the position. There are a lot of corners in this draft but few with legit #1 corner ability. 3. ILB Nico Johnson, Alabama With corner and RT holed up, the last remaining hole is ILB. Nico is a favorite of mine at the position in this draft. 4. RB Montee Ball, Wisconsin The Chiefs need more meat at RB, especially to help take heat off Alex Smith. 5. WR Marquess Wilson, Washington State The Chiefs continue to hope Baldwin can develop opposite Bowe. In the meantime, the Chiefs are still hurting for depth at WR. 5. OLB Michael Buchanan, Illinois Your typical Illini product. Athletic as all get out, in need of serious development. 6. ILB Zaviar Gooden, Missouri Some badly needed athleticism for our ILB corps. 7. CB Micah Hyde, Iowa The CB position needs more talent down the depth chart. |

I think that's a pretty clear sign. |
Zaviar Gooden will be gone by round 4.

If I were trading back into the bottom of the first round, I would take Datone Jones. The Chiefs need a DE that can provide a pass rush.

Have a veteran QB that you need to protect?
Draft a rookie LT! |

If I trade down to 8, I'm taking Tavon Austin. He's going to be a beast in the NFL.

I agree, though, they are gunning for Joeckel if an adequate trade down doesn't present itself. I don't have any idea how they value Lane Johnson, but if all we're hearing at this point is Joeckel Joeckel Joeckel, it's a clear indication this regime does not give two shits about Donald Stephenson. |
