Chiefs on the clock report (nfl network.)
 

Coming up soon.

They're going to give us an OT....

Yay!

More poorly thought out smokescreens.

And with the 3rd overall pick in the 2009 draft, the Kansas City Chiefs select:

Name: Jesus Christ

Position: Our Lord and Savior

School: Jerusalem State

Who the **** is Al Wallace?

JESUS SAVES!

LMAO

that's what I was thinking....

Whatever. Bringing in Thomas DOES NOT mean you'd pass on Curry.

The sad thing is, if we draft Curry and he turns out to be a good player, some on here will just hate on him because we took him too early.

"Is the town warming up to Matt Cassel?"


......................................

Just what I was thinking.
Some people around these parts are gonna have a shit ton of crow to eat if Curry pans out.

Frank - if he only becomes a "good" player, then people SHOULD hate on him.

Solid doesn't cut it that early - you better get a great, impact, game-changing player.

What's your definition of good....

An ILB is going to have to be a dominant player for a very long period of time to justify that draft selection.

Any expert predicting a Chiefs pick should just say "Day one we know they'll draft a safety."

I'm all about more early draft picks. But I'm hoping Curry is too good to pass up.

Wait what?

I'll take that next year...

I don't see an impact game changer in this draft. In 2 years, I may be wrong, but you can't make chicken salad out of chicken shit with this draft.

I think most on here are too tied up into the fact that every year there are bonifide studs at the top. This year, there aren't. The draft isn't a cookie cutter situation.

Hold on, forgot the 3rd round is day 2 now...

If I had a crystal ball and I saw that Curry was the next Lawrence Taylor, I would draft him at 3, yes.

The odds of that happening? Mmmmnyorp.

when is it going to be on?

Like I said I'll take that next year...there's gonna be 2 of the best safety prospects ever in that class.

mays and.....

Eric Berry.

thanks

i dont have time to watch right now, did he die??? wait it used to say berry tribute final

I don't like the pick at all at #3 but I'll understand if we do take him.

I'm glad ya said Berry. I'm keeping close tabs on him this year.

Looks like a nice enough player, but that clip doesn't tell us crap.

There were at least 5 picks in there where the QB flat out threw the ball at him. The TD runback was Tebow hitting him in the chest and him getting a running start with only the QB to beat. He only made a couple of plays that I thought were good strong plays on the ball, the rest were just gimme picks or right place/right time fumble recoveries. Oh, and he's got Pollard's disease, kept going high with the shoulder.

I'm certainly not ready to place him up there with Ed Reed or Ronnie Lott on the basis of that clip.

Berry's supposed to be the better prospect of the two.

He has better ball skills, he's not as physically impressive...they're very close.

Take into account that video is of him as a true freshman.

Berry's a freak.

He plays so fast and has great ball skills.

There were a couple shitty throws from Stafford on that video.

If you really wanna compare them, Berry has better ball skills and has some return ability. Mays is has better measurables and runs faster and is more of a hitter.

They'll likely both be great players although I'm not sure Berry is going to remain a strong safety at the next level with his 5'11 200lb build unless he really is Ed Reed.

So we're talking Ed Reed vs. Troy Polamalu?

DJ is a good player. Drafted at #15 overall and disappointing ever since.

If we take Curry at #3 overall, he better be ALOT BETTER than "good".

In a way Berry is very similar to Reed in the way he's built and what he does. But I'm not sure there is a physical comparison for Mays, he is 6'3 230lbs and is the fastest guy on the SC roster, freaks like him are something to behold.

All the more reason to take a player with more value as opposed to someone with the least amount of value.

If the entire upper end of the 1st round doesn't have any bonafide studs, then you have to compare them some other way. Position is a logical place to start. Which moves Curry down the list yet again.

Taylor Mays says hello.

This.

This is where the problem lies in the Curry debate, from what I'm seeing here. There are no non-tackle prospects that one can reasonably and confidently claim will be "ALOT BETTER than "good"". It's just that kind of draft.

Since there are no bonafide studs, the next move is to take the player you think is most likely to be a good player for you, regardless of position, but taking need into account. Your moving Curry would be all well and good IF THEY COULD TRADE THE PICK AND GET CURRY AT A LOWER SPOT. Since there is no publicly known likelihood of that, your codicil makes no sense.

Holy shit! Thanks for posting that vid Mecca! I dont watch as much college ball as I should and had not heard about this guy Berry.

Personally I'm leaning Raji no NT for a 3-4 equals complete suck.

We are going D in this draft. Our Offense actually scored a decent amount last year, so I have a feeling Pioli and Haley will be looking D for sure. I agree with waiting on a safety after watching Berry, and I see good Oline choices in this draft, so Im hoping we go that route.

But can Raji play in the 4-3? They said we'd probably be using a mix this year, working into the 3-4 slowly. If he can then he'd make sense there.

Well he's been in a 4-3 in college...

LOL...well played sir

Holy crap! We agree!

:doh!:

Mayock just said Monroe OT.

No.

This is a terrible year for defensive players. 2010 is the year for defensive players.

Why go against the draft? If you do that, it's called reaching.

The Chiefs need as many as three offensive lineman (four if Waters is moved).

It may not be "sexy" but this is the year for the line.

As long as he plays RT.....I guess

Most have said he's better-suited to be a 4-3 undertackle actually.

I don't care if other teams are stupid enough to draft the guy in the top 5. I just hope the Chiefs aren't.

I don't have a problem with taking linemen with every pick EXCEPT the #3 overall.

Agreed, we got our QB, lets go get offense this offseason. It'll make us exciting to watch, get fans back, and we'll improve the defense next offseason and hopefully be major contenders in 2010.

I'm fine other than we shouldn't be taking an offensive lineman with a top 3 pick.

Zach Thomas signing speaks volumes or does it? The 2009 Mike Mayock NFL Draft is gonna blow up this year at pick 3.

What if BJ Raji is their guy?

That'd be good! Never really thought of that. Stupid question, who's our D Coord.? I'm going to hell i know.

For those that missed it, the video player on the right hand side of the page has the story.

It'd be nice to trade down where we can pick up DHB and get a few more picks maybe pick up one of the pass rushing tweeners somewhere then build the line. Get one of the C's and revamp our right side. If we trade Tony for ATL's 2nd it would help this.

What? No "JFC" from the board arbiter of all things football? No casting of aspersions on Mayock's family? This is a first. :)

Yeah he better be a great, outstanding hall of famer like Mark Sanchez.

Herbstreet is a pussy QB...."you cant do that..."

Bullshit, if I am a 230lb safety you'd better know that I am going to try and kill people. Plus, that was almost entirely all shoulder pad to the helmet.

Who do you think we should draft instead. I've seen you pick apart every single draft pick. MECCA - WHO SHOULD THE CHIEFS PICK IF THEY CAN'T TRADE DOWN?

But you haven't seen him answer this very question eleventy billion times?

I could care less who I had out of that group. I'd be plenty satisfied with either.

Correct. I haven't seen him ever say anything. We all know that he wanted Sanchez. Who does he think the Chiefs should draft at #3. I know he says we screwed ourselves over by making our pick less valuable, but I don't know who he thinks we can get for the best value. I have gone out and said Crabtree is the best value we can get. I have not seen him say anyone.

I've seen him say Raji many times actually.

I must have missed it. I'm OK with Raji or Crabtree. I think the tackles are a waste.

He has answered that question.

Me, too. I'd be happy if the Chiefs selected three offense lineman in rounds 2-5 (if they recover a 2nd).

The line needs to be rebuilt.

NOW.

Do you not read?

Nope, I don't read at all. It's because I have my foot in my mouth, and it's too hard to see because I'm all contorted....

That's OK, that's a position most of us are familiar with

"But...but...Penn State sucks and USC never plays anyone good or great, so he CAN'T be good".

Our next performance of True Fan Theater will air at 10:00pm MST.
Thank you, that is all.


Piss on Mayock.

Yeah, he ****ing better. For that grip, you are damned, ****ing right.

That's what I saw.

If I'm not mistaken, this hit now costs 15yds and a first in the NFL???

I only hear and witness good things from Mays though, he looks legit. He really likes to hit, so if he can also show that hawking ability, I think there's a serious weapon heading into the NFL...

I think he has as good a chance as anyone.

I go back to the useual question.

If that player isnt Curry. Then who for this team?
