I don't know why, but I just can't stomach the idea of drafting Clady. Any of the 6 in front of him seem fine, but for some reason I don't like him. I have no idea where my bias comes from.

I can. I've watched a couple of his games and he looked good. I admit that's not a lot of observing, but add that to the potential everybody talks about (Potentially better than Jake Long?) and this pick can excite me. All that said, if we actually get him I hope it's after a trade down.

All that said, if we actually get him I hope it's after a trade down.I should have been more clear, I didn't mean I can't see drafting him at all, I just meant I can't see drafting him at 5...

At #5 he's a big risk for KC:

1. Not a big mauler that may not fit into a Herm scheme.
2. A junior means he is raw.
3. Playing in a weak conference in college.
4. Issues regarding maturity and intelligence.
5. Does KC have the ability to coach him up?

I guess those are some of the reasons for the rumor that KC is high on Albert instead.

[BigChiefFan]

Talib at 22? I just don't see it.

[ChiefsCountry]

This is who McShay works for, those who dont know.

[Direckshun]

This would give us a prime shot at Groves or Jackson in round 2.

[Mr. Laz]

i don't understand why Ellis is starting to slip a bit :shake:


imo Dorsey,Ellis should be #1 and #2 in the draft

you are talking 2 guys that change the game. They can both beat the double team and they both are hard workers.

[Rain Man]

Once again, I'm overlooked because of poor measurables and a lack of Division I experience.

Yep.

Maybe the Chiefs can trade JA to St. Louis or Atlanta and pick up both Dorsey and Ellis. How would you like that?

Hey, everyone else posts this kind of stuff so I thought I would give it a shot too.
