My brief take on the draft

[Nightfyre]

My take on the draft: The Chiefs did not let the draft come to them, they went after the players they wanted.

Dee Ford - I like the player, I just felt like he was a reach for a position of need. But if we really were in love with him as a person/player, and really set on a passrusher, then the got what they needed.

Philip Gaines - Again, I really like the player. Tons of upside. Again, I feel like we reached for a guy we were targetting.

De'anthony Thomas - I see how he fits with Reid, but again, this pick seems like it was made a round early.

Aaron Murray - Great value. Love this pick.

Zach Fulton - Great pickup and a good scheme fit.

Duvernay-Tardif - Great value and hopefully he can come right in and make an impact.

Think this draft might be a little better then last year but that isn't saying alot.

I'm still confused why we picked Gaines when Keith Mcgill was on the board

Gaines > McGill

Gaines has the fluidity, shiftiness, and explosiveness that you want out of your corners.

Keith McGill is just a younger Sean Smith.
