McClain...Yes or No?
I know the draftubators will be all over this w/ the "You don't draft a MLB in the top five!" argument. But after last night's preformance, as well as a very successful College season, would you take McClain with our pick at #5? Personally if Berry is off the board, I'd jump on the guy. He's not only a gifted athlete but a very intellectual player.

the thought of being in the top 5 and having draft low again just makes me ill.

Personally, i just want an impact player at #5. I don't give a rat's ass if he's a reach or not. If the Chiefs find a guy they love, and they can't trade down to get him, then **** it. "Reach" for him. I don't want to be stuck with Okung because he isn't projected as a reach. **** that.

Im tired of linemen. We need skill position players. Whether it be the top safety, top LB, top WR; it doesn't matter where you draft him, just get one.

Absolutely. Give me someone that is actually playing for ROY on either side of the ball. Not another hack from LSU or some other marginal player. There isn't a player on this team that can't be upgraded at #5 outside of flowers/charles.

We reached for Tyson Jackson because he is what we wanted.

I guess you missed the other half of my post, and almost every post i write, saying that we need a skill position player, not another lineman.

Tyson Jackson is a player that Chiefs felt that they needed. Hopefully, they don't think they need another LT.

I think there are better selections and that we could address the ILB position in the 2nd with a player who wouldn't be a big enough dropoff to justify McClain at #5 overall.

That said, he's a damn good football player and would immediately help the D. We need to get MUCH stronger up the middle.

Not my choice, but I wouldn't freak out, either.

Pretty much how I feel.

I'll gladly take McClain if the alternative is another ****ing 5-technique, Cody, an offensive lineman, etc.

I'm actually at the point where I'm almost expecting him to be the pick, if Berry isn't there.

After the positional and talent reach last year, and the fact that Pioli took Jerod Mayo at 10 the year before, I can totally see McClain as the pick.

Yep.

All the talk last night about his intelligence and being a "coach on the field"...I figured Pioli was ready to JIHP.

He fits the mold. Hard working, loves watching film. Football player, not just athlete. He's who I want to see the Chiefs taking first, but I'd prefer to trade back a few spots to do it.

McClain's a very good football player, who would instantly upgrade our LBing corp. That said, I'm not sure spending a top 5 pick on ILBer is the best use of our draft pick, but I wouldn't be upset with the pick because he projects to be a difference maker at the next level.

We're in the same boat we were last year.

If Berry's gone, there's no one worthy of a 5th overall pick, other than Claussen, who becomes this year's Mark Sanchez. (at least regarding the should we take him and sit him for a year debate)

Pioli won't admit his mistake this early, so Claussen's likely out.

If Berry is gone, who's worth it at 5?

Spiller's playmaking ability is worth the 5th pick, but his positional value is shitty.

Haden is going to be a solid CB at the next level, but if you're taking him 5th overall, he has to be a shutdown corner, and he's not.

Dez Bryant? Please.


Leaves you with two options:

Taylor Mays and Rolando McCalin.

Both would be great additions to this defense, and neither are worth a Top 5 pick, IMO.

Bottom line, if Berry's off the board, we're reaching for someone, let's just hope it's a solid reach, and not a Tyson Jackson-esque reach.
