Chiefs My pre-draft wishlist.... what's yours? - Page 2

Kylo Ren · 04-25-2012, 08:06 PM

My wishlist:

LB Luke Kuechly
NT Alameda Ta'amu
QB Kirk Cousins

If the Chiefs were to draft these three guys, the rest would be gravy. But, I don't know how they'll get all three guys in just three rounds. Kuechly may or may not be there at 11. I'm usually an advocate of trading down. But, I don't think they can trade down and still get Kuechly. Ta'amu will have to be taken in the 2nd. But, he may go higher than out 44th pick. And, Cousins may not last to our 3rd round pick. I could see the Chiefs getting 2 of these three, but all 3 would be miracle.

If the Chiefs draft Cousins, I'd be OK with carrying 4 QBs this year. Then, next year, dump Cassel and let Stanzi, Cousins and Brady battle it out. I like the odds of one of those young QBs developing into a good starting QB.

What does your wishlist look like? We can dream, can't we?

Replace Kuechly with Brockers, and you're on. Give me Molk, too.

I'm neither here nor there on Kuechly, while he's not the ferocious heat seeking monster i want at ILB, he's apparently one of the best coverage players at that position to come out in a long time... i could live with it, i guess.

Yes on Ta'amu, he's my vision of the next Wilfork/Hampton/Williams, but who the hell knows what thought process is going on at Arrowhead... they might decide to go Brockers at end, and trust in Powe, Gordon & maybe Gregg to platoon NT... but yeah, i'm sold on Ta'amu as the prototype plug based on what i've watched.

If we take a qb, my gut really says Osweiller, based on what i've seen & heard. Something tells me Pioli see's a little bit of Brady in him.

The Walter mock that royr17 posted the other night was perfect imo, atleast as far as positional breakdown, i thought it was a nice mix & the more i think about it, the more i could get behind DeCastro... that could conceiveably give us a line that could play together completely unchanged for atleast the next 3-4 years.

In the short & sweet, just get players that pan out on some level with every pick... i'm not enough of a draftnik to have locks at every pick, especially this year... all i DEMAND this year is a NT.

edit - i also really want a secret gem of a rb back to hide away on the ps, a do it all type who goes atleast 220... just in case.

They don't make enough booze to handle my reaction to our top 3 picks looking like that.

beach tribe · 04-25-2012, 08:40 PM

1st) Barron. Berry moves to FS, even though I think he makes the most impact at SS, it's just a notch lower at Free, and Barron becomes a total Beast at SS.

2nd) Oz. I'm not even sure he's available in the 2nd.

3rd) Chapman. Needs no explanation

4th) Nigel Bradham
5th) McNutt
6th) Nate Potter
7thx2) Burfict,l BPA

We aren't at a spot where we need players to pan out. We have serviceable players at every spot. We can afford to take chances on boom or bust players because we don't have any gaping holes.

BryanBusby · 04-25-2012, 08:48 PM

1st) David DeCatro, OG Stanford
2nd) Kevin Zeitler, OG Winsconsin
3rd) Brandon Brooks, OG Miami Oh.
4th) Tony Bergstrom, OG Utah
5th) Ryan Miller, OG Colorado
6th) Desmond Wynn, OG Rutgers
7th) Kellen Moore, Super Bowl MVP Boise State
7th) Adam Gettis, OG Iowa (YEAHHHH IOWA PICK HERE GUYS)

**hometeam** · 04-25-2012, 08:48 PM

1 and 2 im in on. 3? not so much.

**Rausch** · 04-25-2012, 08:53 PM

OG DeCastro
NT Alameda Ta'amu
BAA

I'd prefer another "Phat Back" here (FB/HB) because I don't think Hillis can be depended on long term and it's still a position of need...

**pr_capone** · 04-25-2012, 08:53 PM

You know what would be a great idea? If the Chiefs traded down and picked up Konz in the first. Hudson to RG. KC's O-Line is shored up for a good long time PLUS they get and extra 2nd or 3rd to throw at someone.

Hudson is good depth at G but quality stuff at C.

Hoover · 04-25-2012, 08:57 PM

Would like to continue to invest in the defense. Use a 2nd or 3rd for a OC or OG

That's a pretty bad idea.

Wouldnt picking boom or bust style, ensure gaping holes down the road?

Thats fine, call your shots, who ya got? we're all just guessing & having fun with it, anyway.
