Sac's Post Combine Chiefs Mock

Saccopoo · 02:57 PM

1. Gabe Carimi, OT; Wisconsin: 6’7 ¼ “, 315 lbs.
- 2010 Outland Trophy winner, everybody’s All-American, four year starter at left tackle for the pro-style set Badgers. Went against potential first rounders Ryan Kerrigan, Adrian Clayborn and Cameron Heyward as well as practiced daily against J.J. Watt and kicked ass. Superb run blocker and a very good pass blocker. Athletic for his size and can get into the second level. Plays through the whistle and has a nasty demeanor. Can play either tackle spot at the next level.

2. Sam Acho, OLB/DE; Texas: 6'2", 262 lbs.
- Acho showed a good degree of athleticism and speed at the Combine and looks to be capable of moving to an upright position as a 3-4 OLB in the mold of recent former Longhorn defensive ends Sergio Kindle and Brian Orakpo. Winner of the Campbell Trophy (nations top student athlete), first team Academic All-American and second team Walter Camp as well as multiple leadership and sportmanship awards. Solid character and excellent on the field production.

3. Austin Pettis, WR; Boise State: 6’2 ½”, 209 lbs.
- Broncos all-time leader in receptions and touchdowns, Pettis has a knack for finding the end zone. Plays extremely long with superb hands and precision route running. Isn’t afraid of contact and will extend for the ball in traffic. Very good instincts once the ball is in his hands and heading up the field.

4. Ian Williams, DT; Notre Dame: 6’1 ½ “, 315 lbs.
- Williams is a self admitted run stopper that has suffered under three different defensive coordinators in the past four years. Very thick and stout, he’s very reminiscent of current Bills stud Kyle Williams in terms of build and play style. (A bit undersized for a 3-4 NT, but has the potential to kick ass in that scheme due to mind set, strength and tenacity.)

5. Zane Taylor, C; Utah: 6’3”, 313 lbs.
- First team All-conference, three year starter, four year first team All-Academic (conference), team captain. Strong, smart and experienced, Taylor has been a rock in the middle for two BCS game appearances. Is very nasty when the ball is snapped and can get to the second level. A very good leverage player as his three time all-state high school wrestling championships pays off in the trenches.

5. Evan Royster, RB; Penn State: 6'1", 228 lbs.
- The all-time rushing leader for the Nittany Lions, Royster isn't flashy or fast (4.65 40 at the Combine), but has been incredibly productive. A big back that has versatility and plays hard. Reminiscent of another productive, big school back that wasn't very fast that fell in the draft in Arian Foster.

6. Scott Tolzien, QB; Wisconsin: 6’2”, 212 lbs.
- Good pocket presence and can make nice throws under pressure. Not a huge arm, but is accurate and goes through his reads quickly. Has a lot of potential in a Haley system.

7. Dane Sanzenbacher, WR; Ohio State: 5'11", 185 lbs.
- Team MVP and Captain for the 2010 season. Willing to make the tough catch in traffic and has good focus. Is a very good runner after the catch and is precise in his routes. Smart and very instinctive. Ran a 4.59 40 at the combine.

I have you on ignore, but I'm going to guess it's a tackle followed by some random position we really shouldn't spend a 2nd round pick on, and then finally starting to add players that could actually help the team in the middle rounds.

I'll help you out with this one...

1) OT - Carimi

2) ILB - Martez Wilson (herniated disk)

3) WR - Austin Pettis

4) NT - Ian Williams (gets replaced on passing downs)

5a) C - Zane Taylor (BIG SHOCK!)

5b) WR - Ricardo Lockett (Think he's like the 41st ranked WR and not projected to be close to drafted)

6) QB - Scott Tolzien (wasn't aware we had a 6th)

7) RB - Robert Hughes

I bolded the only pick I like.

Well done Keg. You nailed it. Pettis and Taylor are the only good picks I see

Wilson8 · 03-02-2011, 06:50 AM

Actually I think this would be a great draft if the Chiefs could pull this off. Martez Wilson is probably going to be drafted much higher in the 2nd round. His combine numbers shows his athletic ability. Some questions remain about his health. Also I know you are high on Zane Taylor but I'm not sure he can step right in and become the Chiefs starter like they need.

I'd still take this draft for the Chiefs if it happened.

Wilson8 · 03-02-2011, 07:12 AM

I’m sure it’s in another draft thread but Walter Football had a pretty good draft for the Chiefs, but no offensive tackle.

They started with NT Phil Taylor in the 1st round. Followed that with C/G Rodney Hudson in the 2nd round. Many think that Center would be Hudson’s best position. WR Vincent Brown in the 3rd round. I know his speed was not great at the combine but he can be a good WR in the NFL. RB Delone Carter in the 4th round. The 5th round had OLB Thomas Keiser and then QB Nathan Enderle.

I’d also take that draft. Any draft for the Chiefs has to takes a NT and Center. I think the WR need could be addressed through free agency. The OLB need could be taken care of with Studebaker and Sheffield or also going to the free agent market. The only good NT I see in free agency, is Franklin and I think he will be priced pretty high. I see no free agent options for the Chiefs at center, which means they have to draft a starting center.

The draft should focus on taking the best players. Ideally a NT or center would be graded high when KC picks, but you can't reach. This year sucks ass for centers. IMHO, KC should target Sendlein in free agency (whenever free agency is).

Sacc--
You haven't addressed the biggest need the Chiefs have ever faced in the history of the USA--replacing Brandon Albert!!!

**The Franchise** · 03-02-2011, 10:32 AM

No to everything except 3, 4, 5a and 7.

Direckshun · 03-02-2011, 12:46 PM

I like the 7th rounder.

I'll give you that much.

HoHo! That's rich! Funny as the day is long! Did you come up with that knee slapper all by yourself? You're wasting yourself here - you should be on the comedy club circuit with all that hilarity! God damn, you are one super funny, smart and relevant guy!

I can't wait to see what literary gem is going to next spring from your keyboard.
