The idea that you need a "heat seeking missile" at SILB is an outdated notion. You need the player you need. Kuechly is basically Jarrod Mayo, a high-contributing, but low-impact player who will make very few plays, but will prevent a bunch of 3-yard runs from turning into 50-yard runs by being in the right place. And, also, playing really good coverage. Ta'amu isn't prototype. He was never asked to be a prototype plugger in Washington. When draft season started, I was convinced that Ta'amu was more of a 1-gap NT or a 2-gap DE. Slowly... I changed my mind. But now I've just since reverted. Ta'amu hasn't changed. I see Osweiler as likely if he falls to the 3rd or 4th. He's a perfect Ryan Mallett type player that the Chiefs can acquire, not to takeover for Cassel but to groom, develop, and trade off for a higher pick. |

If we end up in the low 20s, he's a leading candidate. Of the three you mentioned by name, though, Brockers is far and away the most likely to go at 11. |

Maybe.
But teams love him, personally. They're just not sure if he can play. So if he falls to something like the 5th, you draft him. Develop him. Give him some time in the preseason and if he plays his way to the #2 spot, give him the ball when Cassel goes down. Cousins will never be a franchise QB for this team, but if all this goes down, you can trade him off for a profit in a later year. That's what the Patriots love to do, it's what Pioli loves to do. |

Ta'amu, Zeitler, Perry, Konz... these players are not fits. Jenkins is not worth a 2nd rounder anymore. And Hill will be gone by now. Of the names on your 2nd rounders, I'd take Weeden, then Massie, then Smith. Of your 3rd rounders, I'd go with Chapman easily. I like Pead and Osemele (who will be gone) a lot, and Schwartz. |

But the sooner this board gets off its Burfict kick, the better. Might not even be drafted, folks. |

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.

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.

We have two of them. Think of how huge it would be if you could get the kid's head on straight. A Top 5 talent for a 7th Round pick? I'd at LEAST draft him and bring him to camp. Headcase or no headcase...he compares favorably to Ray "Frigging" Lewis. As a player...I mean.

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.
