ANOTHER DGB THREAD!
Dorial Green-Beckham visiting the Chiefs today
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...-chiefs-today/ While many pre-draft visits are for the sake of smokescreen, or to firm up medical information, many of them are for teams to look a player in the eye. Likely along those lines, the Chiefs are bringing in one of the most talented players in the 2015 NFL Draft today, who comes with considerable baggage. Via Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, the Chiefs are hosting former Missouri wide receiver Dorial Green-Beckham today. Green-Beckham has also visited the Bengals and 49ers, and the Vikings and Ravens have also met with him. Plenty of other teams probably have as well, to see if they are willing to gamble on a player with explosive ability and a checkered past. Green-Beckham was kicked off the team at Missouri after a pair of drug arrests, and a domestic violence accusation (though no charges were filed). He transferred to Oklahoma, but never played a down there. If you trust him, he’s the kind of game-breaking talent which any team can use, and getting him with the 18th pick might be a steal. Weighing whether they can take such a chance is the kind of thing most evaluators can’t decide before meeting someone face-to-face, which the Chiefs will do today. |

No thanks, we already have a big, and talented but troubled receiver.

Who really believes we will not draft OL in the first round? Nobody should seeing how completely crap they were last year. Their shit play literally cost us at least three wins.

Wouldnt totally surprise me, but I'd much rather use one of those extra thirds and maybe a fifth.

The year away scares me more than the off field stuff due to lack of development.
However, had MU not had the problems they did, I doubt he gets kicked off (hamas, dj, Duncan can vouche for that) and had he played, I doubt he gets out of the top 10. It's a risky puck, but offers a pretty high upside. I'll rely totally on the front office on this one. |

Interesting start to the article, because every time I see the name Dorial Green-Beckham, I think it's a new brand of cigarettes.

DGB has the ability to be Dez Bryant. I'll take it if they go that route.
He comes with baggage, but we've seen plenty of players **** up in college and turn it around with this organization. Most notably, the meanest OLB in football.

If we draft OL in round one I'm going to poison Andy Ried's fried chicken. Somehow... Someway... it will be done.
Dorial Green-Beckham everybody.

Because New England, Seattle, Denver, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, etc... have never drafted an offensive lineman in the first round.

I don't know about that. I could see the Ravens, Saints, or Pats all take him.

If he falls out of the 1st, i would hope that they Chiefs would strongly consider him.
