Chiefs Who do Chiefs pick at 18? Who do you pick at 18? - Page 12

**Meatloaf** · 04-01-2015, 03:06 PM

Ok, folks, we're just under a month to go before the draft, and I thought it might be interesting to see who some of the CP Heavyweights think the Chiefs will draft at #18. For extra credit, please note who you'd select at #18.

Of course, we don't know who might be available at that slot, but I think most probably have a decent idea of who might be available. Anyway, this is your chance to go "on record" as per the 2015 draft.

Note that I stuck this in The Lounge as there doesn't seem to be too much other football stuff going right now. I would ask the mods to please move it if/as needed.

I'll start:

Chiefs: DT Malcom Brown
Meatloaf: WR Jaelen Strong

We run a nickel with 3 safeties almost 60% of the time. Shaq would be great as the box guy in those sets.

If we hadn't signed Branch, I'd have brought up Shaq as a guy to keep an eye on awhile ago.

If he goes to a quality situation, he's gonna be a pro bowl quality player.

IMO he's similar to Kam.

That's crazy.

He will be long gone by the end of the second round and I think NE might take him at the end of the first.

He has to go to a team with a coaching staff that understands how to use him.

He might be my favorite player in this draft, do I'm a bit biased.

Just depends how you can or do use said gadget

There's a term for that.

I think it's called dime.

Not sure I'd draft him at 18, but I'd love to get him in the 2nd.

I brought him up in a trade down scenario selection, he wouldn't go 18th

I really have no bearing on who the Chiefs will pick this year. It is such a toss-up.

As for me personally, I'm between CB Kevin Johnson and OT Ereck Flowers. I'm leaning toward Johnson.

And what point would that be? When someone says "you DON'T draft interior line in the first round" and someone else shows that teams actually do it proves the first person wrong.

In fact, a good general rule of thumb is if anyone says "you don't" do something they are talking out of their ass.

Chiefs: Cameron Irving
Me: Eric Kendricks
