I tend to think it means that we're still days away from the combine, nobody has done their pro days, and the draft guys are tossing handfuls of poo at the walls and making their boards placed on what sticks. Teams don't even know where players rank at this point.

Because he is good against the run, because he can shed blocks, keep his assignments, 30 tackles for a loss over the last two years, maybe he got to the QB or pressure when he was asked to do so.

He has played in what 15-16 games total? That bothers me.

Because Mike Mayock said it......even Mike Mayock acknowledged he's not a great rusher. People need to get over Mayock on some positions he's horrible because he likes things that are not valuable.

He loves Brandon Pettigrew because he blocks then he went into a spiel about how he hates receiving TE's.

I think there is some truth in that. I don't know enough about Davis or Freeman to make any judgements on either one. To be honest I am not really excited about the choices we have to choose from at the #3 pick unless Stafford falls to us.
When that happens you nut up and offer something to get exactly what you want. It will be costly but if you truely believe it is worth it, swing for the fences. The #3 slot sucks absolute balls this year.

When you look at him, everything about Freeman screams NFL success.

And then you see him play in a game.

By draft day unless Cleveland takes him Curry will slip out of the top 10.

First rule: The Kansas City Chiefs under Carl Peterson were hardly the yardstick to be measure against.

Answer this questioned I posed it in the header...

Ernie Sims went 10th, Ernie Sims has sick speed more than Curry does, Sims was the #1 player in his recruiting year...Ernie Sims is more naturally gifted than Curry is...what difference is he making for the Lions?

Do you agree with Scott Wright that Sanchez is the biggest boom/bust prospect this year?

3. Kansas City Chiefs: Mark Sanchez, QB, USC: New GM comes from New England where he had Tom Brady. New coach Todd Haley comes from Arizona where he had Kurt Warner. Tyler Thigpen isn't the answer.

Sorry, True Fans.
Hide sharp objects....

Cassel played in zero.

I'm not advocating Cassel by any stretch of the imagination but this fascination with declaring Sanchez as "not ready" has gone overboard.

He was at USC for 4 years. If he had stayed, his stock in the NFL draft may have only dropped. It's tough to beat 1, 2, or 3 overall.

I agree. Though the Chiefs have alot of holes to fill and may not want to part with a boat load of picks.

I agree that anyone drafted in the 1st round is the biggest boom/bust prospect every year, based on financial investment into that said player.
