Chiefs Draft Thoughts

Chiefs=Champions · 04-23-2010, 11:26 PM

It was the start of the draft and i was nervous as hell. Okung fell into our laps and i was sure we were gonna take him FML. Then the clouds parted as Berry was shown talking on the phone. I have never been as happy and excited about a draft pick, I was jumping around the room thinking not only did we draft a fantastic player, but maybe, just maybe Pioli actually knew what he was doing..

Boy was i wrong..

To be honest im probably not as pissed of with the draft as some, but im still left scratching my head over a few of the day 2 moves.

IMO we had the chance for the best draft in chiefs history and yet we came away with maybe a solid C+ at best..

Clausen, a guy that you reportedly were considering at 5 drops into ur lap in the ****ing 2nd round and you pass. Not only is he damn talented, showing all the traits of a franchise qb but he also played in the EXACT same offense that our new OC runs.. Seriously how that isnt a no brainer stuns me..

I do think McCluster may prove some wrong and basically act as a poor mans spiller, but the Arenas pick seriously pisses me off, especially after just taking McCluster.

Why Pioli thought that hes a better pick then some of the other players on the board i will never know.

Picking up Asamoah was a reasonable pick, as i think hes perfectly suited to our finesse scheme, but to pick Moeaki and not only that but trade up for him?

that is just plain idiotic. Seriously what made them think they had to trade up for a guy that most probably had rated as the the forth best TE left on the board? Not only was it a reach, but this is a guy whos been plagued by the injury bug his entire career...

In conclusion Pioli better hope these guys produce immediately or hes going to lose the last thread of faith i have in this team..

We also better have a ****ing dominant return game....
