Who wants Crabtree at #3

[Cosmos]

We have our trading partner...

If we can stay in the top 10 we will have a shot at a top talent at all of OL/DE/LB positions and additional pick(s).

[kcpasco]

I'd trade for more picks only if Stafford is gone

We can grab Maualuga

[kstater]

Hell no I don't want Crabtree at #3.

[the Talking Can]

no one

[Hammock Parties]

Depends on his 40.

If he runs slower than Bowe, pass.

[RedThat]

Sure. If he is a good player why not?

[Deberg_1990]

Hes basically the same thing as Bowe. Same type of reciever. No thanks.

We need a speed guy.

[CupidStunt]

Rather stick a dildo in my eye.

[L.A. Chieffan]

Drafting WRs with your first pick worked so well for the Lions, I think we should give it a shot.

[Hammock Parties]

I don't watch much college FB but is this guy really that slow? Does he have trouble getting separation?

With his production you'd think if he runs 4.4 or better he'll go early in the 1st.

Not saying we should draft him but we might be able to bilk a team out of picks if Stafford is gone and we want to trade.

[BigChiefFan]

Some people never listen. He's a POSSESSION RECEIVER. We need to STRETCH the field with our number two guy-that requires a SPEED RECEIVER, Crabtree isn't that guy. Spending a top 5 pick on a possession receiver is a total reach.

[mesmith31]

If thats what your looking for wait and get that Hicks kid from UNC...

[alanm]

QB or DE at #3

[kcxiv]

I would be fucking pissed if we draft another WR. QB, if not, then you go defense. I wouldnt mind dropping down a few spots if we can get a good deal.

[Cosmos]

Rather stick a dildo in my eye.

It's like you already did...

Read the op slower.

Looking at trading out, not choosing Crabtree.

:banghead:

[alanm]

Rather stick a dildo in my eye.You'll have a hard time explaining that one at work.

[BigChiefFan]

Nobody is going to trade up to number 3 and select Crabtree.

[L.A. Chieffan]

It's like you already did...

Looking at trading out, not choosing Crabtree.

:banghead:

I dont think anybody else would want to fuck their draft over either by trading UP and then taking an overrated WR

[KChiefs1]

What players in this draft would teams be willing to trade up for?

Matt Stafford
Sam Bradford
Andre Smith

Any others?

[Dave Lane]

Matt Millen does.

[Dooz101]

!st of all, lets spend some of that or all of that 30 mil under cap we saved this yr and go after Haynesworth and Peppers, this will help our D a tad. Then we need to draft a mean MLB, if we can't stop the run and get pressure on the QB we will lose another 10 plus game again next year. The QBs in the draft so far are a strech for 1st rnd.

[bowener]

BPA @ #3 for me

[kcchiefsus]

Some people never listen. He's a POSSESSION RECEIVER. We need to STRETCH the field with our number two guy-that requires a SPEED RECEIVER, Crabtree isn't that guy. Spending a top 5 pick on a possession receiver is a total reach.

Both Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin ran slower 40 times than Bowe (so did guys like Terrell Owens and Jerry Rice). I doubt people would complain about having that duo. Speed is overrated. Neither Boldin or Fitzgerald is a possession receiver. Both are so much more. Dwayne Bowe has the ability to be so much more than just a possession WR, despite his lack of top end speed. Speed is overrated. It helps but there are more important things for a wide receiver.

[smittysbar]

I want Stafford or Bradford, if they are gone (or don't declare), BPA @ #3 except OL, Albert has shored up the LT spot, and drafting this high for another OL position is not smart.

[Stanley Nickels]

I'm not sure what the fascination with any LB in the top 5-6 right now is.. Curry has emerged as the best of the three elite prospects (along with Maulaga and Laurinatis).

Crabtree could go high as 4, low as 10...

[RedThat]

If crabtree ended up being another Larry Fitzgerald my god that would be a terrible pick at #3

[Bowser]

I don't know if we will ever see a trade up into the top 3 again. If so it has to be for a freak or a QB and there are no freaks in this draft that I see.

[sedated]

Mike Williams

Charles Rodgers

[EyePod]

He is going to be much better than Bowe. I would be worried taking him at 3, but I still think he's going to be an elite receiver. So I guess it wouldn't be the end of the world.

[DJ's left nut]

Philly for their 2 firsts. Wouldn't they love to have a possession guy on the other side of Jackson? Either to keep McNabb healthy, happy and productive or provide a lot of help for Kolb's development.

Take Everette Brown, Nate Davis and Alex Mack with 1A, 1B and 2.

[EyePod]

I think he was trying to say that we need a faster receiver opposite Bowe. I wouldn't complain with Bowe/Crabtree though...

Boldin wasn't selected in the top 5-see the point?

[sedated]

Boldin wasn't selected in the top 5-see the point?

it doesn't matter where he was drafted, he is one of the top WR's in the NFL-see the point?

[EyePod]

Yep. He's not only amazing on the field, but jeez, he was out with a face and came back from it! WTF? Such a fucking great work attitude.

[RedThat]

Charles Rodgers

Larry Fitzgerald and Calvin Johnson you negative bastards.

[Demonpenz]

crabtree bowe Tgonzo would be a nice wr core

[RedThat]

Oh yeah and Andre Johnson was shitty pick at #3 overall too

[RedThat]

so was braylon edwards too. damn that guy suck balls

[Basileus777]

so was braylon edwards too. damn that guy suck balls

No, he just drops them. Besides that was one of the weakest draft classes in history. Three running backs went in the top 5. Alex Smith went #1.

#3 is too high for Crabtree. His lack of speed makes him more of a risk and him and Bowe don't really complement each other.

Some of the greatest receivers didn't have the greatest speed.

He can make up for lack of speed. Im convinced a WR doesn't have to be the fastest guy as long as he is a great route runner, has that ability to go along with a great set of hands and so forth he'll be fine.

Route running > Speed. As long as he is a terrific route runner, I'm glad.

[KCChiefsMan]

personally I would grab Curry, Orakpo or maybe a QB or trade down and get Maugula (sp?) or Laurinitus

[ModSocks]

Then we need to draft a mean MLB, if we can't stop the run and get pressure on the QB we will lose another 10 plus game again next year. The QBs in the draft so far are a strech for 1st rnd.

I'd rather have Suggs than Peppers. A MLB can be had at the top of the second, if the MLB's are getting thin, i don't think we should have too much trouble trading up from Round 2 pick 2 to get one. We need a QB in rnd 1.

Seeing all of this Philips Vs Cutler crap makes me wish we had a young star gunslinger to throw in the mix. Everyone in our division has a potential star Qb but us. (Russel isn't a bust yet, we'll wait till after next season to write him off). Stafford or Bradford could be our guy. Match one of those two and with a new coaching staff and much improved D-line (hopping we get suggs and Albert) and we can be next years Ravens or Falcons.

Stafford Vs Cutler Vs Rivers, sounds fun

[eazyb81]

I don't get the fascination with Crabtree. He's small, slow, and his huge numbers are due to the ridiculous pass happy offensive scheme at Tech.

What do you think someone like Darrius Heyward-Bey would do in that scheme?

[DJ's left nut]

Small? Crabtree is the same size as Fitzgerald and built like a brick wall. He's damn near a prototype possession reciever. Additionally, he has great hands and is not slow. He's not the absolute fastest out there, but he's certainly not slow.

He's going to be a very very good pro. I see a lot of Fitzgerald in his game.

[petegz28]

No WR's or RB's in the first round please.

[Micjones]

You only take Calvin Johnson type Wide Receivers that high.
Crabtree's not that guy. I'd love to have him, but we've got bigger fish to fry.

Besides, we'll be able to get a quality WR in the middle rounds.

[googlegoogle]

No WR's or RB's in the first round please.

exactly unless they are 320pounds and can also play on the oline or 250lbs and can play linebacker.

[Mr. Flopnuts]

If we trade down, I hope it's for Taylor Mays. That kid is going to be a HOF'er.

[Cosmos]

I started this thread to discuss the possibility of the Chiefs trading out of the 3rd spot to a team a few spots down, who are desperate for a WR like Crabtree...

I like the idea of extra picks in 3 & 5 to move down 3-4 slots.

If we keep this pick and do anything less than take a shot at our QBOTF, I will be dissappointed.

[The Bad Guy]

Crabtree certainly isn't small.

Nor is he worth a pick in the top 10.

[HemiEd]

BPA @ #3 for me

Yes, whatever happened to that?

It's debatable.

[DJ_is_the_realdeal]

Get Curry from Wake Forest!!

[RINGLEADER]

And he slips a lot.
