Chiefs GM Pioli - Page 2

I believe he is building this team the correct way with solid FA's signed and not reaching for draft picks. So many people will say he reached in the 2nd round but those players will shore up a weak return game. Not everything will be fixed in 2 years so sit tight and see what happens next year. Year 3 is the year we should really see the results of what he has done so far. In my opinion he has gotten playmakers for a team that was really lacking!

Let me put it like this, the McCluster pick looks like a great pick If you take Kindle and Cody after that. Then you go "damn, that's a hell of a draft". Now it all looks like shit outside of Berry.

+ Better returns leading to better field position.

+ Two starter-caliber running backs in Charles and Jones.

+ Bowe, Chambers, and our new slot receiver Dexter McWelker.

+ Two new interior linemen with NFL starter experience in Weigman and Lilja plus a top rookie OG for competition.

+ The second year in a new offensive system. The first with a dedicated and heralded OC and the first where it will be in place for the entire offseason and training camp.

= I'm looking forward to some significant offensive improvements this year and a real opportunity for Matt Cassel to prove himself worthy or unworthy as an NFL starter.

Absolutely my point^^ Not a bad off season compared to recent years.

I didn't even mind the McCluster pick THAT bad. But this team needed a nose and outside/inside backer in the worst way and we took a nickel corner and backup tight end. Just unbelievable.

**** you!

**** you!

We agree on everything in that post, but **** you!

On defense, the line is filled with high round (meaning valuable) draft picks who have had shitty coaches and a couple of different systems in the last couple of years. A new set of coaches will hopefully get more out of the raw talent that's been accumulated.

The defensive backfield should be significantly upgraded with Berry and there will be competition for the other starters from both this year's draft and last year's draft.

Linebacker is still a weakness, IMO, but there was a lot of untapped potential in DJ last year so hopefully the new coaching staff can get that potential onto the field.

Sigh.

We had the potential to get much, much stronger up the middle on defense. And we failed.

Miserably.

I agree with this. It could always be worse.

Good players that Scott Pioli has brought in to this team:

1. Eric Berry
2. Ryan Succop
3. ??????

That's it.

He's already been here a year too long IMHO!

**** defense guys, we got a returner!

THE SEASON IS ALREADY OVER!!!!!!!!!

MoreLemonPledge · 04-23-2010, 08:43 PM

My ideal 2nd round would have been some combination of Tate, Cody, and Kindle. That being said (and it's been said many times before), this team has a lot of needs, primarily playmakers. We had 1. If these guys pan out like they're supposed to, we'll have a nice trio of playmakers.

And you can't be mad about getting the second rated guard in the 3rd round.

You think you're being sarcastic, but you're actually spot on.

This team needed a homerun draft in the worst way to make up for last year's abortion. It had the potential to be the best draft this team has ever seen, and in typical Pioli fashion he ****s it up and takes a bunch of reeruns over the players that are cornerstones of great teams.
