If your the Chiefs, do you go WR in round 1?

RedThat · 01-16-2007, 01:17 PM

This is a tough choice.

I'd love a big play WR, and I think it's time that the Chiefs get one.

This is something we've never had in a looooooooong time. But it's tough because as much as the Chiefs need a WR, they need a DT just as bad, and even an OT.

So in round 1 at #23, if the best player available is a WR, DT, or OT? What do you take? I think Im going WR. I think Herm and the staff can find defensive talent in the later rounds.

At the WR position for the Chiefs, let's face the facts. The Chiefs only have 1 starter in Kennison. And he's 33. I like Kennison. I think he is a decent WR. Not somebody though youd have to scratch your head over if your an opposing coach wondering how your going to game plan against the guy. Kennison to me, fits the perfect role of a complimentary WR. And the depth at the WR position has me concerned. I look at Samie Parker he is not a starting NFL WR. But could be a good a good depth guy?

There is no doubt in mind the Chiefs best receiver is Tony G, and Im happy we signed the guy. But I feel this is a position we need bigtime, it is important to help out our passing game. We need an injection of youth, and talent here. Somebody else that can stretch the field, create seperation, and get open, make the sure catches, and the big plays when we need them. I never seen us have that kind of player. A big threat that teams have to game plan against. It's time we get Tony G the help he deserves.

*Folks, after this playoff loss Im convinced we need a WR. 7 dropped passes by our WR's...no 1st downs in the 1st half. ZERO catches by our WRs. Im thoroughly convinced after the playoff game, this position needs to be addressed.

You go Long Snapper, then bullpen catcher, immediately followed by Fluff Girls in rounds 3-7.

I don't think we need to draft a WR in the 1st round, but we definitely need to be more proactive in addressing our WR needs than we have been the past two offseasons.

If Jarrett or Ginn are available I would.

But you dont think the draft is a good place to do it?

Their are some good talented WR's in the draft this year. If one of those guys, Jackson, Jarrett, Ginn, Samardizjia falls to #23, I might consider drafting one of those guys.

*In FA, their is not much out there. The best guys are Drew Bennett, and Kevin Curtis imo.

I would rather take an OT.
and for God's sake, start Huard the next season.
it would give us decent passing plays.

Archie Bunker · 01-16-2007, 01:31 PM

What is everyone's opinion of Jeff Samardzija? Is he looking like a 1st rounder or 2nd.

POND_OF_RED · 01-16-2007, 01:35 PM

With the Jets first choice in the draft, they select................................fullback...............Texas AM............LOLOLOLOLOL I can't stop laughing when I hear that.

I think if any of those guys is available with the exception of Samardizjia, we should take them.

Guard. Look at our roster. Shields and Waters are only two listed.

Guard or MLB. No WR. Still thinking about Snoop's meaningless impact.

Indiscriminately, drafting the best player available is a good strategy. Trading may pan out for line help.

Yeah, I would love to get a WR in RD 1 or RD 2, but we have so many needs to address that I wouldn't be disappointed if we spent our first two picks on any of the following: OT, DT, C, WR, or CB.
The free agency group isn't great for WRs, so I do hope we land someone in the draft, but you never know who might still be on the board when we draft.

And what if the OT's left when we pick are projected 2nd or 3rd rounders?

We NEED a WR and the WR position this year is much deeper than the OT position.
