So, how many 2008 draft picks do we have now?

[Kylo Ren]

I assume we have all of our 7 picks in 2008? Have we traded any away? I don't recall. We've gained a 5th for Dante Hall and probably a 4th for Trent. Have we gained any other picks that I'm forgetting? I think there's still a chance that we may trade one or two more players. I think we'll have 10 or more picks in '08. I like it!

2 things. (1) He'd still have to sign a decent contract elsewhere to be worth anything in comepensatory value, and even if he does, (2) we've signed a few players to a lot of dollars and if we greatly exceed the value we lose we don't receive any presents.

Please excuse my ignorance. What does BPA mean?

I reviewed the draft value chart and we could trade one of our 4th rounders, a 5th, and 6th pick for an additional 3rd (albeit a really low one, but we could trade two fifths or some sort of package to get where we want). Then we still have picks in every round with an additional third rounder where some quality can be had.

For the most part good but why safety in the 4th? I think LB or RB would be a bigger concern.

Thanks Milkman.

I hope we draft the shit out of the available OL options.

After that, our secondary will need to be retooled and our WR corps could use some work.

Not sure, but I think the next draft is pretty deep at OL.

I'd love to get a shot at Sam Baker.

I expect, however, we'll probably be drafting in the 15 to 20 range again.

That could change with the performance of Croyle. Huard isn't exactly young, and if Croyle doesn't pan out- you can expect the Chiefs to be drafting a QB very early again. I expect them to draft a QB anyhow.

If Croyle looks to be promising, expect the Chiefs to draft a mid-round QB for future insurance.

If Croyle fails to show any promise, expect the Chiefs to draft a QB in the first couple of rounds.

Who do we have at safety if Pollard or Page go down? Considering Wesley is traded to somewhere else.

John McGraw, former second round draft pick of Herm's when he was at the Jets, and Chad Williams, a veteran FA out of San Fran.
