I wonder what ever gave them that idea?
Tyson Jackson.

Maybe after all these mock drafts they go and have some mock sex

Last year absolutely no one had Tyson Jackson going to the Chiefs until about a day or two before the draft. We spent 6 months looking at mock drafts and people arguing over these things and none of it was even close in the end.

With that being said then look for the "mockers" to have Dan Williams going to the Chiefs a couple of days before the draft:thumb:

How much do you think the FO will weigh in the fact that drafting a "boring" or "safe" pick over a (safe) and game changing player like Berry, will piss off and turnoff the fan base?

They are smart and have to realize that if you draft a ball hawking (hopefully next Ed Reed) type player who can turn around a game in one play will probably sell more tickets than drafting another fat **** to play on either line. Right? They need to sell season tickets badly.

When perception is everything, I'm pretty pissed these so-called draftnicks are almost trying to will Pioli and company to fuck it up...so Berry WON'T be our guy. Just read their justifications for it...makes you want to :Lin:
Out of curiosity, who is Berry's agent?

Chad Speck is his agent, that's Haynesworth's guy.

Zero, since the only way to sell tickets is to win ball games. Winning is the only thing on their mind...If they feel their pick will be better to win ball games, then they will make that pick. When they start winning, the financial rewards will come along with it.

The majority of mockers have us taking Berry. http://dcprosportsreport.com/MockDraft.htm

Who has more influence on the draft picks , Haley or Pioli ? I would think a good GM ,if he had trust in his HC ,would let him make the picks, of course with discussion.

Just asking.

To follow that thought , I would think it would be like this.

Pioli to Haley: We need to build the lines first. Let me know who you want.

The coach COACHES the team. The GM is the guy that gets the coach the players. Obviously the HC has input, but he doesn't spend all year scouting.

It's the other way around.

HC: Our lines are awful. I can't coach these turds up.

GM: I'll get you some good OL/DL.

I think you might have missed some sarcasm there.

Letting coaches have say over picks gets you Dick Vermiels drafts.
