But what ticked me off isn't that, it's being an absolute jackass about the pick while simultaneously making an exponentially stupid pick yourself (not you, specifically). Here's how I see it: if you have a legitimate argument against the thought that Gibbs could be a dynamic player in the Chiefs offense AND you didn't also make an absolutely reeruned pick yourself, then I'm all ears. Honestly, I'd love to hear that feedback. I've heard exactly what I've outlined in paragraph one though, which speaks to some collective idiocy. I thought this was the smarter group of people on the board, act like it and I might show some respect. |

I have not been subtle in my admiration of this woman.
She is an absolute goddess.

The good news is that the actual draft will play out nothing like this. Reassuring. There shouldn't have been a choice to make at 31 for Branch or Gibbs because Branch is probably a top 15 player and Gibbs is probably going top 25.
Branch might be the best all-around defensive back in the entire draft. He just won't get picked higher than a couple of corners because he's ... not a corner. The fact he was even there at 31 was absolutely numbing to see. I wouldn't pick him based on that alone. I'd rather it look like the massive cluster**** it is. At least there is a small chance that Gibbs is there. Andy Reid won't pass on that type of weapon, which is why they spoke to him already. I'm trying to at least give it some sort of realism. Maybe I'll throw that to the wind and draft a QB in round 2 simply because he should have been drafted by a team that's going ot need one in 2024 by now. |

The Chiefs are not interested in CB/S this year, and oh look loads of them fell. I don't really see it as ****ing up, I see it as part of the fun of the draft, rubbing my hands together with glee when I see a great talent falling to me because he's not really on Chief's fans radar. I can understand that this is especially frustrating when you're picking for the Chiefs though. Maybe that explains the terrible record on 1st round picks over the years |

I'm not bitching about DE because the Chiefs need one, hell there are plenty to draft this year and I can get one. As I said, there are a few I'm plenty happy with sitting there yet and the chances all 3 are gone at 63 are slim. And it could very well be the group of players and the situation (not taking DE at 31) the Chiefs end up in. I am complaining because it's not me who's getting screwed or whoever mocks for the Chiefs each year. Everyone does because we end up creating an unrealistic pile of garbage that has players and positions going to teams that simply will go in another direction in the draft, and certainly won't double down in the top 35 picks. It's simply not a competition to see who can out-draft the other guy with the best players. If it is, this is my last year. It should be to put some level of thought into what teams have done in the offseason (which is why this shouldn't start until at least after the 1st week of FA), gauge their current and near-future needs beyond just the primary standout need, and draft accordingly with the best players at the right times. |

I really wanted that guy, but it seems like the draft sites either love him or hate him, and the Giants also need a big receiver. So I went with my safer pick.

Yeah, getting the chiefs almost always sucks.
That said - you went off the board. I took Bradberry my year because it got picked clean. But there weren't any DE or WR reaches this time. You just liked the RB better. Not sure you have much cause for grievance here. 'Our guys' didn't get over drafted like they often do.
