After ONLY giving away a 2nd pick for 2 outstanding players (WOW), the next rabbit Pioli pulls out of his hat is trading the #3 pick for a 1st and a 3rd. Both picks will be used on defense, IMO.

Millions of dollars sounds like a good reason too trade down. IMO

The odds are beyond slim, however.

Ha. Glad I finally got people on board with this.

The trade chart is stupid. If you don't like what you have and you like guys that you can find a little later, then trade down and take what you can get (without getting yourself ripped off).

If the Chiefs only got a 2nd round pick or something similar to that to move down a few spots, that's fine with me. To hell with what the draft chart says.

Yea...

The fact that you've got a gun to your head doesn't invalidate the draft chart.

Talking about Rey?

Of course. Mecca = massive USC homer.

If Curry is gone I think we draft Monroe.

bdeg 03-01-2009 10:46 AM

That's been addressed so many times I'm not even going to bother.

It's Brown or Raji.

It could also be taken as regarding both positions high(they spent a LOT on olb's) and having good opportunity in the draft, therefore filling the other hole elsewhere. Pure speculation of course but don't rule it out.

So you'd rather reach for a pick or draft a player you don't want who is the BPA because a reeruned piece of paper that doesn't change from year to year tells you not to? If Raji isn't a top 5 graded nose tackle, the BPA are not what we need and the players on the top of our board would be reaches.

I can't believe you're honestly sticking to your guns on this. There is no value to the Chiefs sticking at #3. They are going to grossly overpay for whomever they pick and they are missing an opportunity to get an extra pick or two in a draft where they need to fill a LOT of gaps. But I guess a stupid piece of paper says that Curry is worth the same value as Matt Ryan and Glenn Dorsey so we must stick to that.

That's not what I'm saying at all. If you think the Chiefs are going to take a 3rd rounder and nothing else to move down to 10, you're ****ing reeruned.

yeah no way that happens, we have to get a 2nd at least:evil:

How many threads have been created in the last 48 hours that essentially say the same thing? This is getting kind of annoying.

With the transition to the 3-4, the two positions that are must-haves that I'm not sure we have on the current roster is NT and rush backer. The odds are that we will look to fill one of those positions with the #3 pick, but I also think Pioli will desperately try to trade down because the value isn't there for those positions in the top 3 this year.

Curry is an option, but it's hard for me to sit here and believe that Pioli will use such a premium pick on an inside LB.

We call Tampa Bay and trade them Matt Cassel for their 1st and 3rd and then we select Matt Stafford.

Didn't Curry run a 4.5 at the Combine?
