I don't like his talent for the pick.......I don't think any of the 5-7 teams behind us would have taken him. Hence reaching when you could move down and still get him.

You don't know that for sure now do you? What makes you think the 49ers wouldn't take him if we picked Lawson?

I'm not upset with the pick, he has his priorities straight and is a pass rusher which we really need! It's better than just accepting Hicks for another year

as usual chiefs are always in a pickle during the draft b/c they are just good enough to place them out of reach of the better players during each round. 20th pick suxs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

given where we are in the draft pure luck plays a big part of who we get and if he'll make a difference in the short run and long run. Larry Johnson is a great example of this.

I don't disagree that we could have gotten him several spots lower, but how do you know there just wasn't a trade partner? If not, and the Chiefs wanted Hali, sometimes you take a player a bit earlier than projected.

It could be worse. We could be drafting like the Bills...

Really, we could have moved down? Who offered us a good deal to move up? Seriously, I'd like to know.

I bet it was Pittsburg.

I like the pick:

POSITIVES: Relentless defender coming off a tremendous senior campaign. Displays outstanding first-step quickness, is fast off the edge and displays outstanding pursuing from the backside. Plays with good pad level, quickly alters his angle of attack and is fast in every direction of the field. Shows an array of hand techniques to protect himself or defeat blocks. Naturally strong and splits double-team blocks. Instinctive with a good head for the ball.

NEGATIVES: Needs to improve his body strength as he will be pushed from his angle of attack by large opponents. Occasionally pins his ears back, rushes up the field and over-pursues the action.

ANALYSIS: A natural leader slowly developing a complete game, Hali has the ability to fit several schemes at the next level. Offers possibilities as a pass-rushing end in a conventional defense or could stand up over tackle in a 34.

Hali was the 2nd best DE in this drafted and was thought to go anywhere from 10 to 25 before the combine. He's not a reach. A reach would be what Buffalo did, selecting a fringe first rounder in Donte Whitner with the 8th overall pick.

How things change, Donte Whitner is one of the best players from this draft now...

It might be a bit of a reach according to the "experts", but I'm fine with it. We have drafted player on top of player with "potential"... we've got "potential" all over the freaking field. Here is a guy who is going to show up, work hard, and get to the QB. Not flashy, but that's what I like about Herm, he drafted a football player over a bunch of measurables. Wait till Krumrie gets ahold of this guy. I like the idea of having him and Allen both being total animals rushing from each end on passing downs.

ChiefsCountry · 04-29-2006, 02:30 PM

Hali is a good pick. This is the spot where he was expected to go for most of the draft process. He was productive in college, great motor, plays hard and makes plays. You need guys like that on a defense. Chiefs make a great pick two years in a row now.
