My pre-draft wishlist.... what's yours?

Fairly high wish list:
- Marvin McNutt (think he could be a nice big WR value pick)
- Terrance Gannaway (Good #2 power back we could get late. See him in a Michael Bush type of role)
- Nick Foles (3 year starter, consistent #s, big arm, want this guy if we can't get Osweiler)

Indifferent On:
Decastro or Kuechly. Not sure which one we'll get. Either or sounds like they'd serve us well. I can see benefits for either or. Not sure which one I want more.

Do not want:
Kirk Cousins (IMO he doesn't have any special skill set. Solid player. Maybe could be a Trent Green type which is nice but nothing elite. Simply tired of seeing Chief QBs without special tools. I've had my fill.)... Hoping someone else snatches him up before the Chiefs do.

I, too, think people are sleeping on Nick Foles. I like him a lot as a midrounder. I don't know if the Chiefs do, however.

I've been a Foles fan for quite a while. I would be happy with Tannehill, Osweiller or Foles out of this draft. I was kind of intrigued by Cousins after the Senior Bowl, thinking he was a Trent Green type of QB but I agree that the Chiefs already have a player like him in Stanzi. I would rather bet on the potential of the other three.

I don't think the Chiefs care that they have Stanzi.

I think they love Stanzi and they want to keep Stanzi. I also think they're happy to throw him into the preseason fire against Quinn to see who comes out on top.

I am certain they will take Cousins if the price is right.

I really don't know how they feel about Foles, he's a hard read. But he carried a lousy offense for years with astonishing accuracy. His complete lack of athleticism doesn't bode well, however, to become a Chief.

.

If you believe the book that followed KC/Pats/Atlanta's offseason last year, then you'd feel differently. The book made it seem like they really liked him. They tried to trade up for him a few times.

I think he could end up a Matt Ryan type player - not one of the top 5 or 6 QB's but pretty good. Especially if he gets some quality coaching. Stoops sucked.

However, afaik, the Chiefs have only met with Oz, Tannehill, and Cousins (not sure about Weeden) so it's unlikely they are looking at him.

ETA: ...and some small school QB's.

I think there's a lot to be interested in Foles if you're the Chiefs.

IMO he has the same resume as Cousins but with better size & arm.

Multiple year starer, Senior, good completion %, good #s (take that for what it's worth in college)

I suppose he doesn't have the winning record Cousins has but I think that's more a product of the teams they were playing on.

Yes, Foles isn't very athletic. But Scott Pioli's shining moment of getting a QB is Tom Brady who isn't athletic either.

YES on McNutt!

Stanzi to McNutt and Moeaki many TD's Get them on the field.

I see both Kuechly and Cousins being Chiefs before this draft is over. I swear.

Ta'amu, I don't. There's really only one NT in this entire draft the Chiefs probably like.

I would not bet on the Chiefs drafting a NT unless Chapman falls.

[Kylo Ren]

Trade down?

My actual draft wish is that Pioli has Snyder on a table right now with his head in a vice convincing him to give us the #2 pick for 3 firsts and two 2nds.

Probably have a better chance with the Colts.

[Simply Red]

I'm pretty sure John_Wayne is Gunther_Fan - I'm also fairly certain that Gunther_Fan was actually nothing more than another Kotter mult.

[brorth]

My wish list says:
Russell Wilson somewhere in the draft.
A real NT.
A sharp, mean Safety.
A Guard or Center, depending on how I feel about Hudson at the moment.
Russell Wilson somewhere in the draft.

[DTLB58]

Any of the Bama Defensive players.
