NFLDC is out with it's first mock

[Mecca]

I don't think this will get much play in the draft forum this time of year..

So here you are... http://www.draftcountdown.com/sub/Mock-Draft-A.php

The pick is the Chiefs at 10...taking..Julio Jones.

[tyton75]

Do NOT want a WR in the top 10... QB/OL will be he pick IMO

[Quesadilla Joe]

That website is trash

[BryanBusby]

That website is trash

"There is no way the Kansas City Chiefs will take Eric Berry. I guarantee it"

[Bane]

ROFL

[Mecca]

That website is trash

Uh it's the best draft site on the net pal.

[Mecca]

"There is no way the Kansas City Chiefs will take Eric Berry. I guarantee it"

In fairness he always said it was a good pick and it's who he would take at the pick, he didn't think the Chiefs would do it and well he wasn't alone in that thought.

[Mecca]

Do NOT want a WR in the top 10... QB/OL will be he pick IMO

It's not a good year for OT's at least not in the top 10.

[Ceej]

Dude had a damn sick catch yesterday.

[doomy3]

That would be pretty awesome.

[the Talking Can]

QB or WR

Jones is going to tear it up with a real QB this year

[Mecca]

Jones has the same QB he had last year though, so how's it any different?

[the Talking Can]

which is a really long way of saying he was wrong

[Sam Hall]

Julio is the player I want. He's the next Terrell Owens, in a good way. I think it's a waste of time to argue about Luck and Locker. I don't think they will be on the board when the Chiefs pick.

[Brock]

Jones has the same QB he had last year though, so how's it any different?

wut?

[Pioli Zombie]

I think they should draft a left tackle and move Albert to RT.*

*said with entertainment in mind.

[Mecca]

He said Jones is going to tear it up with a "real QB this year" Alabama has the same QB.

[Reaper16]

QB or WR

Jones is going to tear it up with a real QB this year

I think Talking Can saw that sick one-handed catch from yesterday, a pass thrown by redshirt freshman A.J. McCarron, and assumed that McCarron was the Tide's QB this season.

McElroy is still the starter in Tuscaloosa, and he deserves to be. He's smart, accurate, and has great instincts. I saw the game in person, and McElroy was masterful at evading what little pressure got through the 'Bama line. McCarron, meanwhile, got some valuable experience. Kid's got a Hell of an arm, and he seems accurate on his deep passes, too.

Julio Jones is a beast. Only thing that can slow him down is his motivation.

[Mecca]

Is it bad that I immediately started going through the character guys wondering if we'd take one of them instead?

Looks like Julio won't be the pick, then.

The first guy I thought of was Mark Herzlich..

[Reaper16]

The first guy I thought of was Mark Herzlich..
At least he was a legit guy before his cancer.

[Mecca]

And I know he isn't listed in that mock because he only does some underclassmen, But I absolutely love Akeem Ayers.

[Titty Meat]

Wow no Jarred Crick? Thats not going to happen.

[Direckshun]

I would have gone Von Miller.

[Titty Meat]

And I know he isn't listed in that mock because he only does some underclassmen, But I absolutely love Akeem Ayers.

Me too he's exactly the athletic OLB we need for this defense. Von Miller is going to be an interesting guy to watch since A&M will be running the 3-4 this year and are one of the only teams to do so. It made that guy from Cal alot of money.

[Mecca]

Wow no Jarred Crick? Thats not going to happen.

He's not listed in the rankings, this time of year he only does "select" underclassmen.

[Mecca]

I would have gone Von Miller.

Von Miller is to light for the Pats style of 3-4, remember they like the bigger guys.

[KevB]

And I know he isn't listed in that mock because he only does some underclassmen, But I absolutely love Akeem Ayers.

He was impressive in the KState game yesterday. A couple of times he was going against a 3rd string RT, but impressive anyway.

[|Zach|]

Jesus Christ.

A mock draft.

[Direckshun]

Von Miller is to light for the Pats style of 3-4, remember they like the bigger guys.

They weren't afraid to put Demorrio on the edge. My guess is they'll feel similarly about Miller.

But I know nothing about Miller's work ethic/personality/team captainry. All I know is he's phenomenal between the lines.

[Mecca]

Uh it's called preliminary stuff for the year, it'll change 100 times, gives people an idea of what players to watch.

[Rausch]

Julio is the player I want. He's the next Terrell Owens, in a good way. I think it's a waste of time to argue about Luck and Locker. I don't think they will be on the board when the Chiefs pick.

I don't see us going WR in the top 10 though...

[Mecca]

They weren't afraid to put Demorrio on the edge. My guess is they'll feel similarly about Miller.

But I know nothing about Miller's work ethic/personality/team captainry. All I know is he's phenomenal between the lines.

This team would probably prefer Ayers he's 6'3 255.

[Direckshun]

This team would probably prefer Ayers he's 6'3 255.

And also bad.

I'm pretty sure this team would prefer Dumervil to Ayers.

[Mecca]

Bad?

Um Akeem Ayers is awesome, the guy has tremendous talent what do you mean by bad?

[Direckshun]

Bad?

Um Akeem Ayers is awesome, the guy has tremendous talent what do you mean by bad?

Thought you meant Robert Ayers. My bad.

[KChiefs1]

I guess I can give up the Andrew Luck dream.

[crossbow]

OK, call me Captain Obvious but doesn't having a great Wide Receiver do you no good if you have nobody that can throw the ball to him.

[Brock]

Ask Calvin Johnson.

[Dave Lane]

Jesus Christ.

A mock draft.

And already they are arguing . :)

[JD10367]

And already they are arguing . :)

And assuming a Top 10 pick to boot. Nice to have confidence in your team.

But, hey, it took almost 40 posts for a Cassel-bash to show up, so there's that.

Here's an idea: think, "I don't give a fuck about next year's draft, because my team will be picking 32nd."

What kind of idiot would think that about this team?

[DaneMcCloud]

Are the Chiefs trading down or trading up?

[Jerm]

Jesus Christ.

A mock draft.

I would take him if he's there...sadly he'll probably be off the board...

:cuss:

[Nightfyre]

If we don't get andrew luck, I will be disappointed either way.

[-King-]

So they don't think Gabbert is coming out or do they think he won't be a 1st rounder?

[Mecca]

He only has a handful of underclassmen included, he always starts it that way.

[Chiefs Rool]

Julio Jones will be a bad ass, I wouldn't be upset. We gotta do something about QB though.

[notorious]

:facepalm:


The season needs to start. JFC

['Hamas' Jenkins]

That would be a good pick.

Jones in '11

Gabbert in '12.

:whackit:

[-King-]

That would be a good pick.

Jones in '11

Gabbert in '12.

:whackit:

You don't think he'll come out in '11? I think he'll come out ASAP before they put in the rookie cap.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

You don't think he'll come out in '11? I think he'll come out ASAP before they put in the rookie cap.

It's a definite risk.

[DaneMcCloud]

:facepalm:


The season needs to start. JFC

Yep.

All of the posts will become positive after approximately 12am, September 14, 2010.

Can't wait!

['Hamas' Jenkins]

Dontay Moch runs a 4.25 as a fucking defensive end?

Holy Gholston.

[Mecca]

He only weighs 238lbs.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

He only weighs 238lbs.

That's still Taylor Mays territory.

[-King-]

Yep.

All of the posts will become positive after approximately 12am, September 14, 2010.

Can't wait!

What do you mean positive?

[DBOSHO]

I don't give a shit who it is, but I want a qb in the first 3 rounds if cassel plays like crap again

[DaneMcCloud]

Colt McCoy?

it's a thread about the draft


don't click on it if it doesn't interest you, you ignorant pussy


jesus fuck go punish the poor fans of the pats board

[Rigodan]

What does everyone think about Mallet? Could he be a top ten pick by the end of the year?

[keg in kc]

What does everyone think about Mallet? Could he be a top ten pick by the end of the year?It's hard to tell where he's going to fall, it's obviously really early in the season and I think it's going to be a QB-rich year. There are questions about his fundamentals, his touch and his mobility, but he obviously has the prototypical size and the ability to make every throw. Right now I'm expecting him later in the round, but who knows at this point. He's somebody that I think could end up being really good at the NFL level though.

[the Talking Can]

What does everyone think about Mallet? Could he be a top ten pick by the end of the year?

easy, if he puts up huge #s....QBs generally rise given the demand for them


i kind of wish he was at a smaller school like Flacco, because he's going to go higher just based on being in the sec

[Mecca]

Mallet was also a 5 star recruit he's been known forever.

His arm alone should elevate him, he's the kind of guy who everything that's done in the offseason really works in his favor because he'll be the guy with the biggest arm.

Mallet has done a good job of losing weight making him more mobile so they can actually do rollouts and such.

I still think Locker is overrated as a top 5 pick, I don't see that with him, maybe teams do.


And it's a damn draft thread if you don't wanna talk draft why are you in it?

[doomy3]

That would be a good pick.

Jones in '11

Gabbert in '12.

:whackit:

This.

[Mecca]

I'll be one of the few to say this but I think John Baldwin brings more to the table than Jones does.

[keg in kc]

I still think Locker is overrated as a top 5 pick, I don't see that with him, maybe teams do.I didn't think he helped himself much yesterday. I mean, his stats were fine, and maybe this doesn't make any sense outside of my own head, but I think a top QB finds a way to win that game. That's part of what I think goes into drafting these guys so high, being winners at major programs. 'course he has an entire season to make up for it.

[Mecca]

I didn't come away wowed watching him play, when you watched guys like Stafford in college they have a wow factor.

[notorious]

Jones is a stud, and he would look great in red.



We need our weakest position fixed before his talent could be used.

[keg in kc]

The game wasn't on here, but I definitely got a "meh" when I looked at the box score. Particularly when I noticed they didn't score in the second half.

[DBOSHO]

Colt McCoy?

Im talkin next year but I could go for that

[Bowser]

Seriously?

[Ceej]

In case you missed it:

Uh...

[DBOSHO]

I would rather have a bigger qb with a little stronger arm but I would consider giving up next years 3rd for mccoy

[Mecca]

Oh god.

[DBOSHO]

What's wrong with colt mccoy? Because he's a spread qb?

[Mecca]

Building your team around an injury prone midget is a great idea.

[milkman]

I would rather have a bigger qb with a little stronger arm but I would consider giving up next years 3rd for mccoy

:spock:

[Bambi]

You've got to take the best QB available. Hopefully one of the 3 first round talents are still available.

If not unfortunately do D line. Have to hit on one eventually.

[Frazod]

The fucking season hasn't even started and you're worried about the draft?

:shake:

[Mecca]

Don't open the thread if you don't wanna see draft stuff.

[DBOSHO]

Why not try it again? It'll work one of these times

[DBOSHO]

And I didn't say id build a team around mccoy. He would be a pricy developmental qb

[Frazod]

See that prefix that says draft?

Don't open the thread if you don't wanna see draft stuff.

Do you even watch the games, or just jerk off over mock draft charts?

[DaneMcCloud]

The fucking season hasn't even started and you're worried about the draft?

:shake:

When you're a Chiefs fan, the draft is never too far away...

[Sam Hall]

I hate to be the person who brings up the possibility of drafting a corner in the first round. Nobody wants a corner in the first, but we know Pioli will make some surprising picks. Patrick Peterson and Prince Amukamara look good.

[Sanka]

I'm banking on Matt Moore being a beast and us trading for Clausen come next off season.

[Bowser]

I'm banking on Matt Moore being a beast and us trading for Clausen come next off season.I bet they love you in Vegas.

[BryanBusby]

Give me Ryan Mallett if he can learn how to put a better touch on his passes.

[melbar]

Really weird....I was watching him today and that awesome 1 handed catch wondering if he would be available for us...

[Reaper16]

And assuming a Top 10 pick to boot. Nice to have confidence in your team.

I hate everything about this post. It is enraging.

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

Boo! Suck!

[DaneMcCloud]

I hate everything about this post. It is enraging.

It's not enraging.

It's stupidity, Chiefsplanet-style.

Nothing to see here.

[teedubya]

I think we picked the wrong couple years to be shitty. I'd love to draft 3rd in 2011... we'd get one helluva QB, but this year will be average and we will get a shitty average 1st round pick. We failed when we had top 5 picks.

[KCrockaholic]

I likes the Julio Jones pick. But I'm interested in watch Mallett and Luck this year. Both are guys on the radar for the Chiefs pick IMO. BTW anybody from Alabama is a solid projected pick by anyone at this point. The Chiefs have close ties to the Alabama staff.

[Priest31kc]

I'd be fine w/ Julio, I really think he could be a Fitzgerald type WR. Buuuut, if a QB is there, that would be my first option. NT is a big issue obviously as well, but Im sick of taking DL in the 1st round.

[KCrockaholic]

Gabbert looked alright the other night in the first quarter, then really turned it on in the 2nd half and looked awesome. But, most of the routes he threw were short, 7 yard hitches (which he threw more accurately than Cassel I might add). I like him a lot, but he still has a lot to learn before he decides on if he goes pro this year or next.

[Dante84]

Anyone know anything about that Ayers kid from UCLA? He must have been involved in every positive defensive play this past Saturday when they played my cats. This guys was a beast.

Pick #23 KANSAS CITY CHIEFS: RYAN KERRIGAN, OLB, PURDUE

Scouting Report
In just a couple of years General Manager Scott Pioli has worked his magic and taken the Chiefs from perennial cellar-dwellar to playoff contender. There is no question that this franchise is finally on the right track, but for all the improvement they’ve shown there is still work to be done.

After using their last few first round picks to address the defensive line (Glenn Dorsey & Tyson Jackson) and secondary (Eric Berry) it might be time for Kansas City to add an impact linebacker. Purdue’s Ryan Kerrigan plays defensive end in college but there are plenty who feel he’s capable of making the transition to outside linebacker in an odd front. Kerrigan may not possess elite size, speed or athleticism but he’s just a terrific football player with a non-stop motor who finds a way to get the job done and that has endeared him to pro scouts.

In many ways Kerrigan will remind you of Mike Vrabel, who he could ultimately replace in KC. The Chiefs also need to bring in some additional firepower for their passing attack so wide receiver is a possibility and don’t rule out a offensive lineman

[teedubya]

And at pick #24...

24 NEW YORK GIANTS: DRAKE NEVIS, DT, L.S.U. :eek:

[beach tribe]

We won't need Jones after we sign Fitz.

Haha I missed this thread the first time through and thought Mecca came back talking draft. Ha

As long as we have a winning record...we may be mecca-less

[okcchief]

Maybe Mecca only cares about the draft and can only support losing teams? You might check the Panthers and Bills boards.

[aturnis]

Maybe he only likes being a negative nancy and can't hate too much.

[beer bacon]

Wrong thread!

[BossChief]

Cassel is playing well and the rest of the players arent helping him much.

[beer bacon]

Wrong thread!
