just wondering what everyone would do if both where still there when we draft.

id hate spending three years worth of first round draft picks on DL and still suck.

I'd like to get a DC in place, firmly, before we even make any draft decisions. If it's Crennel, so be it. I don't want to handcuff the DC without getting his solid input, assuming its worth a damn.

That being said, our safety position is causing way more damage to our overall defense than any other position. Including the lack of a fat DT.

I thought it was lack of a pass rush?

i would hope that if Suh and Berry both fell to us we would trade down a draft spot or something and then take Berry.


just don't see how Suh fits on our team unless we go back to a 4-3 or they think that Suh can play nose tackle ala Jay Ratliff for Dallas.

Quality coverage over the middle will allow our CB's to play better; allowing our entire secondary to erase passing options for the opposing QB; making him sit in the pocket longer; leading to more sacks, broken plays, and more interceptions via forced bad throws.

The pass rush will get much better once we have a solid backfield.

Dante84

Even if our Dline gets a better push and we still dont have a safety, teams will dink and dunk us all the way down the field on screens and tight end dump offs.

I would pray that some team would be willing to move up to get Suh. I think this team needs Berry worse than Suh, but it wouldn't shock me at all if they went Suh in that scenario as he would help sell more tickets immediately.

surely we can improve our safety position through FA without spending a bunch of cash.

i mean solid,unspectacular safeties are pretty common. It's when you get one that is a stud that they get expensive.

There shoud be a few good ones available in round two and three this year as well. Maybe not Berry. But good none the less.

of course i want a star everywhere ... but the question is how do you get the best total talent.

it's much easier to get a decent safety in FA than a DT.


all depends on how you rate Suh vs Berry though :shrug:

First, Suh won't fall to us but if by some miracle Detroit picks another WR you take him at 3rd and do the happy dance.

Plus, more ticket sales to the NE fans.

Berry no contest. He is exactly the type of player Kansas City needs. If opponents can get some fear of Jesus Berry in the backfield the pressure will get that extra tick that will make em arrive on time instead of just after the QB let go.

Berry would upgrade the corners, safties and linebackers.

Suh would probably help the d line and inside linebackers but that's about it. He is not the type of player to change the way an opposing team plays you, Berry is.

You guys really want to spend another Top 5 draft pick on a 5-technique?

Doing this means:

Our last 3 R1 picks, all of whom were top 5, play the same position.

We'd have over $100M wrapped up in the three of them.

Who becomes the rotational guy? Dorsey or Jackson? What happens to McGee? Or did we waste a R3 on him?

Micjones
12-30-2009, 10:58 AM
That'd be one hell of a decision to make.
It'd be hard to pass on a prospect like Suh with a 3-4 scheme.
At the same time though... You might be able to trade down 2 spots and pick up an extra (high) #2 and STILL get Berry.

This is all that needs to be said. You don't pass up Suh's talent, even for Berry. Suh is everything. He is one bad mofo. I heard he was created in a lab by crossing the DNA of Darth Vader, Chuck Norris, Rocky Balboa and Jesus Christ. I could go on but the point is: if you have a chance at him you DO NOT f@ck that up.

Look at Detroit, they drafted an ass load of WR's in the 1st round: Charles Rogers, Mike Williams, Roy Williams, before they finally landed on CJ. Sometimes you just have to admit the mistake and move on. You can't move on if you're still trying to convince yourself that (____ player X) wasn't a mistake and even if they weren't a mistake anyway, you still don't pass up on the best player in the draft if they fall to you.

The CBA is a huge deal for us this year.

a new CBA will probably include a slotting system for the draft making our pick incredibly more valuable.

without a new CBA the FA period will probably suck which will make it doubly hard for crappy teams to acquire talent and easier on teams looking to keep their talent.

I agree. That'll be a GREAT problem to have come draft day.
The possibility of trading down a slot or two intrigues me though cause we could still get Berry and add another #2.

A Golden Tate/Sergio Kindle/Brandon Spikes Round 2 would be insane...

I cant see us trading down @ 2 or 3 but I guess it could happen.I think we pick when its our turn.Too damn far away to really see how things will change between now and then.Hell Cj Spiller may be up in the top 10 by then and shake things up.

I'd rather have Berry. Fuck, how much 1st rnd talent do we need on the D-Line? We need to spread the wealth man. we're going to have the most expensive D-line in the NFL, with only 3 guys playing on it.

And who wants to go though a 3rd straight year of "X-lineman is a bust in his first year". Im tired of hearing that shit. We'll just hear it again if we draft Suh.

But anywho....say we did draft Suh, would you be opposed to trading our two second rnd picks to move up and draft Mays?

Because if we could land Suh AND a top safety talent, well, that changes shit.

It was more a reference to our continual drafting of defensive lineman.

I don't doubt that they can work in our system, I think a lot of Dorsey and always have. Not a fan of TJ but I could be wrong and I'll be the first to admit it if I am. At best I expect TJ to be an average player here. He wasn't worth the #3 pick thru no fault of his own, but he now must live up to that pick. I don't think he can but I know that Suh can and I don't think you pass on a player of his caliber because you have a mediocre player already filling the position. TJ's first year stats DO NOT compare favorably to those of any good 5 tech.

For the record I wouldn't be opposed to drafting Suh and trading him or keeping him and trading TJ. If TJ has done such a bang up job then maybe BB would be willing to give us his 2010 1st rounder. :rolleyes:

You draft Suh because he makes everyone around him better.

From a former Ravens and Browns scout:

Suh can play NT, shade, 3 tech, 5 tech or whatever else you would like him to play... he can dominate at any spot, any scheme

The Chiefs 3-4 is nothing like the Dallas 3-4, the Chiefs are trying to build that boring NE 3-4 where big fat guys play up front and stop the run and the LB's only blitz sometimes.

The NE style of 3-4 is nothing like the Pittsburgh style or the Dallas style. And for the style this team seems to want to play, which is the boring one I might add, Suh has no spot unless you want 3 top 5 picks to rotate in 2 spots.

If we played 4-3 we'd still be hosed because Jackson could only play end in obvious run downs and Hali could only play in obvious pass downs otherwise we'd have 1 side that couldn't stop the run and 1 side that couldn't get a pass rush. And Hali with his hand on the ground against a LT isn't all that hot to begin with.

Jackson would have to move inside and become a rotational player, which, for Pioli, would be a bigger admission of being a dumb fuck than if he outright cut Cassel.

Exactly why i want Berry. So everytime an opposing team throws the deep ball i can have that hope in the pit of stomach that it will result in a pick, rather then the dispair in the pit of my stomach hoping that the ball is overthrown, because the odds are pretty good that the safety isn't going to be there when the ball starts coming down.

I'm still torn on the 2.The more I read,and more video I watch,the more I like both guys.Like I said before IMO,either pick will make us better.

I remember when Dorsey was Suh 2 years ago....

From the same Ravens scout.

RT @FootballFan9216: then why was Glenn Dorsey considered best player in that class?>> not by teams i worked for... tweener, injury prone

Ill tell you one thing.

If both are on the board and we take Okung...Im boxing my Chiefs stuff up for a couple years.

And for the crowd who wants to be shortsighted and say things like "you cant take a DL that many times in a row, you'll turn into Matt Millon".....if the Lions used that philosophy, they wouldnt have Calvin Johnson right now and would have basically nothing to show for all those picks. Out of all those picks at WR, the only one that stuck was the only one worth the pick because he was truly an elite talent...the others werent.

I agree. With these kind of players that will be available, Pioli can't fuck this up right?

Right?

Oh fuck...yes he can....

If you want to bust on the Lions for anything bust on them for making a fan friendly pick instead of the right pick.

They took Charles Rogers over Andre Johnson because he was the hometown kid when Johnson was the better prospect.

I'm game for Suh or Berry. If 1 of those 2 guys are sitting at the table and we reach for someone else I will be pissed. (again)

I seem to recall them being considered equal and most had them as 1 & 1A. If its that close then I can't blame them for taking a local player.

If Suh falls to us we have to take him.

I'd take Eric Berry. You can not invest another 30 million on this defensive line.

That would be Matt Millen dumb.

Do you not recall Haley/Pioli saying they wanted to build our D-line the way they did in New England? 3 first rounders.

ok...but its still detroit how many games have they won in the past 5 years? i wouldnt base your argument on drafting another DL on something detroit has done IMO

Good point. If they'd had any consistency up there on the coaching staff, they probably could have stopped with Williams.

I'd rather have Berry. ****, how much 1st rnd talent do we need on the D-Line? We need to spread the wealth man. we're going to have the most expensive D-line in the NFL, with only 3 guys playing on it.

And who wants to go though a 3rd straight year of "X-lineman is a bust in his first year". Im tired of hearing that shit. We'll just hear it again if we draft Suh.

Suh is a crapload better than Jackson and i seriously doubt anyone would say he is. Suh is already the consensus best player in the draft, TJ wasn't even on the radar of most teams until mid-first round.

You draft Suh because he makes everyone around him better.

From a former Ravens and Browns scout:

The same scout who said he wasn't high on Dorsey? If he was a scout for the Browns I could care less what he thought, he's a former Ravens scout, not a current one. Dorsey is a stud, albeit misused here, he is still contributing and the defense is much better with him than without.

The Chiefs 3-4 is nothing like the Dallas 3-4, the Chiefs are trying to build that boring NE 3-4 where big fat guys play up front and stop the run and the LB's only blitz sometimes.

The NE style of 3-4 is nothing like the Pittsburgh style or the Dallas style. And for the style this team seems to want to play, which is the boring one I might add, Suh has no spot unless you want 3 top 5 picks to rotate in 2 spots.
I love that you said "trying to build". I would love it if our 3-4 was as boring as NE was when they had Seymour.

You guys really want to spend another Top 5 draft pick on a 5-technique?

Doing this means:

Our last 3 R1 picks, all of whom were top 5, play the same position.

We'd have over $100M wrapped up in the three of them.

Who becomes the rotational guy? Dorsey or Jackson? What happens to McGee? Or did we waste a R3 on him?

It worked for Detroit. Oh...wait

He was a scout for the Ravens from 2003-2006. He went to the Browns because he was offered a promotion and when Mangini came to town he brought in his own scouts.

He lost all credibility by going to the Browns.ROFL

Cool. What the hell were they thinking in 2004? Did the scouts take off for the day after they drafted Dwan Edwards? He's the only one from that year thats still with the team.
