If we redrafted this draft with someone besides CeePee, Hali wouldn't have gone at twenty, we would've gone down to 28 or 30 and gotten him.

And even if her were somehow snapped up, then we still could've landed Jimmy Williams, Santonio Holmes, Chad Jackson, or Winston Justice, who I bet will all turn out to be better pros than Hali.

I wanted Santonio Holmes, but I think this was still a pretty good pick as it filled a more urgent need.

I don't understand how any fan seems to think that they know better than the Chiefs what they want in the draft. I'm sure their opinion may seem objectionable in their eyes, but if we were all that good we'd be working for some NFL team somewhere in the system.

First off, how do you know anyone wanted to trade with us?

And maybe we thought so highly of Hali that we didn't want to trade down and risk losing him.

I'm not upset with the pick, he has his priorities straight and is a pass rusher which we really need! It's better than just accepting Hicks for another year

I'm ok with the pick. I prefer Hali over Lawson. Football is not a track meet or a weightlifting contest. Its hand-to-hand combat in the trenches, and he who wants it more gets to the QB.
It was a slight reach at most. If the player you want is available, DRAFT HIS AZZ!!!

I think we know where to point that finger.

If you do not have someone in that range to trade down with and it is a player/position you want, how is it a reach? If you don't "reach", you don't get the player you want. Just because the "experts" don't agree with the value, if it is what you need, it is a decent pick. :shrug:
I am no draft expert like some, but I like the pick even though its not a sexy one.

Yeah, I agree. It may have not been a sexy one, but it could have been a hell alot worse.

Only the Jets and Giants don't reach.

This thing is held in NY after all.

Yep. CP actually said this during their PC after the pick. They had 1 trade offer but they didn't want to make it because they were afraid he wouldn't be there.

I'm happy with the pick. I was scared shitless we'd go for Cromartie and glad to see him go at 19.

and if they picked Williams, we would have never known that the chiefs could have traded down to the second round (but im sure most of the draft experts like yourself would have praised a Williams pick). the DE class is poor this year IMO and Hali is a great pick at a position of need.
