To say we need a CB/DE more than we need a OL is rediculous. We have two stud DE's,even if one is going to miss 4 games. Yea,maybe Law and Surtan are old,but they play a high level for 2 more years. Meanwhile, our O-line is falling apart. Mostly because there all older than dirt,or can't play at the professional level.

What if those lineman aren't worthy of our pick, there is that to consider you know.

you really don't want to draft a guy with questions in the 1st round.


there isn't a guy we can pick that won't have some questions.....

Sure but I don't particulary like guys who get injured constantly.......you can't help the team if you're always injured.

Trade up. Or trade down like Herm was considering and get a bunch of young prospects than you can develop.

I think we're gonna be lookin at Ginn who I think will go right around our pick, Jarrett, one of the rising workout corners like Eric Wright and those reach DTs.......

I like Bowe alot, not as much as Jarrett but I would be happy with either one of them before Ginn. But I think it would be a mistake not to take a WR at our spot.

but there are different types of questions

injury prone is not one that you usually want to mess with in round 1

well of course, there are a lot of things to consider, first of all who gets picked before we hit the clock.....

I'd like to target these;

WR - Bowe or Jarrett, either or both could be gone
OT - Brown if he fell, we would jump on. Staley, meh, I don't know.
Other OLine - if someone could impact and start, yes, don't know enough about them.
DT - wouldn't you love for Branch or Okaye to fall? But Harrell could be a good choice at 23 if Bowe, Jarrett are gone and no Brown or other Oline.

CB - maybe but depends on who is there, Like it was said a moment ago, Law and Surtain have a couple more starts in them, but I wouldn't be surprised to take a CB in the first, but do we need a first round talent with our scheme?

Other than that, who do we go for, I keep hearing BPA, but how do you tag someone like that? A.Peterson falls to 23, this BPA means we take him? He has injury concerns too.....

I know, just talking it out. Besides he had a broken ankle and a torn bicep (that he finished the game with, played through the pain, hint hint, he's tough and likes to play football) so they are not nagging little injuries. Not the four knee surgeries type of injuries that tend to kill a career.

Any article talking about the Chiefs' "draft intentions" between now and draft time should be taken with a grain of salt.

A.Peterson fits this description, IMO.

Ugh.......I HATE this philosphy you want offensive lineman be damned. This is how you end up with busts notice the DT's we've drafted.....

We have alot more holes than just line.......

Mecca 04-14-2007 01:05 PM

Adrian Peterson would never make it past 12 so even pondering the question is foolish.

True.

However if the Chiefs were in the position to draft him, would you take that risk?

If I could spin it into trading Larry Johnson yea.....if not I probably wouldn't because they are almost carbon copies of each other, Petersons faster and a little more naturally talented but either way very similiar players.
