I look forward to hearing something along the lines of

"He's one of the guys we felt would be an impact player, and we're thrilled that he was still there at 18".

That doesn't mean they are all favored players that everyone else has.

It could easily be composed of players like Marcus Peters, Phillip Dorsett, Nelson Agholor, etc who could be there at our pick.

LOl good ol chiefs. We cant draft for shit so lets put out the we need to trade down card. Who cares right Clark? As long as tickets keep being sold.

So we are taking DGB, since he will likely be the only impact player to fall to 18.

I would almost bet on a trade down. There are teams in the 20's that are going to want to either trade up for an OT (Carolina) or a RB (Arizona, Dallas).

I wasn't picking on Dorsey. That's a standard type of PR line for almost all GMs. It's like them saying "He was the #1 guy on our board". Pretty much every GM not named Belichick takes this approach. And I'm not saying that to excuse Belichick, it's just that he goes in a different direction because of his penchant for trading down.

Belichick takes the route of trying to sell people on "We had a group of about 5 players that we weighted the same, so we were able to trade down and still get one of them".

In both cases, the truth of the matter is irrelevant.

Speaking of. Yeah I think a trade down is coming..

@TerezPaylor: #Chiefs GM John Dorsey says they have called around and told teams they are open to having trade discussions. Obvious but keep it in mind.

of course the Chiefs have the #18th pick with 17 max wow players in the draft :banghead:

Yea but he's including Winston and Mariota both of which will be busts.

The whole statement is stupid. As if anyone knows how many in the draft will be any good.

If your GM feels that there are only 10-12 impact players in the draft, shouldn't he be trying to move up and grab one rather than move back and get a guy he doesn't believe is an impact player?

ptlyon 04-24-2015 12:13 PM

John Dorsey wouldn't know an impact player even if they came up and ****ed him in the face

Dorsey's impact players are probably not the same as another GM's impact players.

You guys realize that everyone is lying right now, right?
