Chiefs Not taking Doucet screws up the Chiefs draft

B_Ambuehl · 04-27-2008, 02:57 PM

They had Early Doucet sitting there in the 3rd round and passed him over in favor of Jamal Charles and Brad Cottom. That wouldn't be so bad if the Chiefs didn't plan on picking up any wide receivers, but they went on to spend 2 picks on wide receivers who will probably never see the field (4th round and 5th rounder), basically throwing those picks away when they could've used those picks on quality offensive lineman. For one of those 2 early 3rd rounders you would've had yourself a starter but now you have nothing but a backup RB and blocking TE.

Typical Chiefs.

They took Charles over Doucet, not over the TE. Doucet was gone by the time we picked again.

Maybe you should learn how to read before you type this shit.

Typical, B A - just looking for a reason to complain.

you could probably follow your own advice

Negative Chester. Doucet was drafted with the 81st pick. Jamal Charles was drafted with the 73rd pick and Cottam the 76th pick. Arizona picked up Doucet one pick prior to our last 3rd rounder.

Chiefs passed over him not once but twice.

I don't think the Chiefs valued Doucet that much because he's short and not a speed guy...

Doucet is never going to be anything more than a slot guy. You're overrating him because he played for LSU.

It was a typo. Flip Charles and Doucet in that sentence.

I know i just found it ironic

Apparently not taking Doucet screwed up the drafts of 30 others teams too.

**CosmicPal** · 04-27-2008, 03:14 PM

Ohhhhh puhhhlleeezze.

For ONCE, the Chiefs drafted well, didn't reach, and picked up some solid football players to make this team a whole lot more competitive for years to come.

I love how the NFL draft makes millions of couch potatoes into instant NFL GM's and scouts.
