If the Chiefs draft Melvin Gordon III do the fans...
 

Have a meltdown?

Or go true fan yee haw?

Drafting Jamaals replacement LMAO

I know I'd be pissed.

I don't know enough about him to be 'pissed' or have a meltdown, but just from reading our needs and BPA , and seeing what the more informed posters here on CP have to say about who we will draft....

It seems like it would be a surprise if that happened.

Thats why I went with meltdown, not because I personally would have a problem with it...although from what little I understand I would probably either do BPA , or snag a WR or a DE/pass rusher

Would rather have gurley.

Melvin Gordon won't be Jamaal Charles. He won't even be close.

This happens every year, especially with Wisconsin RBs. People say, "Look at this guy. He looks fantastic! He'll be a monster in the NFL," and then he ends up sucking.

Jamaal Charles is still ticking. We have Knile Davis. Sure, I hope we draft some RB depth, because you can never have enough. Thankfully this draft class is ****ing loaded with them deep into the draft. It makes zero sense to take one in the 1st, even for RB-desperate teams.

Dumb. Dumber than even an Eric Fisher selection.

Always be replacing

So... Meltdown ROFL

The last player from Wisconsin who was impressive was.. Who Russell Wilson, or JJ Watt?

Assuming they went to Wisconsin lol

The RBs to come from Wisconsin have been abortions. They've been Penn State-level bad.

Wisconsin has actually produced decent NFL talent at a variety of positions. Even QB now, thanks to Russell Wilson.

They haven't had a RB enter the NFL who didn't suck eggs yet. Even Ron Dayne sucked. The last RB they had who was good was before him.

And that's a long time without producing any good RBs if you're a school that has a tradition of running the ball like they do.

Gurley can go get raped, too.

I would draft him in the 3rd round, but he's going to get taken in the 1st round by some dipshit team. So I've written him off. He's dead to me.

I want a stud, don't really care what position.

no kicker
no punter
prefer not an interior Oline
prefer not a MLB

still ... a stud, not a project ... a stud

Stupid ****ing waste of time thread. Good job.

The point is valid. Wisconsin has a system that's very RB friendly. That being said, Ball and Clay were not nearly the prospect Gordon is.

I'm not crazy about the pick. I'd rather go with Gurley of the two, and RB is low on my list. But I don't see a problem with taking a RB if you think he has a chance to be something special. An elite RB can make a much bigger impact than an elite OL.

I'd love it. As a Wisconsin fan, this kid is a stud. Home run hitter like Jamaal.

Gurley is gonna be a beast if he comes back 100%.

I wouldn't mind Gordon in the third, after WR and ILB have been addressed.

Idiot. Gurley is definitely worth a 1st rounder.

Which is not going to happen and is not the question.


Gordon will go top of the 2nd at the very lowest. imo.

CP will meltdown no matter who we pick. The clay's and sweet daddy's that either A. Don't like the Chiefs or B. Are constant trolls will gripe regardless

Not really. If they pick WR or CB, I'll be content.

God help them if another fatty flies off of round 1 though.

Yet people that carry aids will celebrate if we draft another first round OL bust like Eric Fisher...

I like Gordon, but I'd probably have a meltdown. You have Jamaal Charles with a decent complimentary back and you'd be taking a #1 feature back. Not exactly what I'd call smart draft strategy.

ROFL

James White looked good for the pats.

Enlighten me. Who should of been 1.1?

I will never lose my mind about drafting a potential once in a generation running back.

Came into this league as a runners fan and will leave as one... and backs are already starting to shake the short lived "backs are a dying breed" school of thought.

Running backs will never become obsolete, the great ones are too capable of doing too many things.

I would celebrate drafting a #1 running back, it would be unexpected, but I'd like it.

If Jamaal were older I'd be for it. Over Gurley too.

Just how many seasons do you think Jamaal has left?

RB in first round should lead to an automatic firing of GM.

Only if this is considered an elite Running back . I don't know about that though ?

I didn't see where he indicated the round? :shrug:

My bad. I figure MG3 (ewwww MG3 nick name) goes in the 1st

Never know though

San Diego will draft him at 17 if he's the best RB available anyway.

I have seen that in a few mocks I think

I'd say he has 3 good seasons and 2 more so so seasons left.

But RB is not a need at this time , Knile davis may turn out to be a #1 by his third year.

It will be irritating if they compare him to jamaal every time we play San Diego

Like they try to do with Von miller and dt because of elway saying his fear of DT made him draft Con Miller

This is stupid. Yeah PSU RB's sucked and then came along Larry Johnson.

Gordon isn't Ball, White, or Dayne. He's going to be a damn good player.

Melvin Gordon

I am sure there is more than a few teams that would love to have him as there featured back.

I agree. Not impressed with his running at all. His running will not transition well to the NFL because he does not have that quick twitch type of quickness to the hole. For Gurley to be successful he will have to go to a team with a superior O-line that can open grand canyon type holes like the Chiefs O-line from 2002-2005. Hence why Larry Johnson got exposed and failed once our O-line went to mediocre and then LJ went elsewhere and failed. Gurley will not even be adequate with an average o-line whereas Gordon will still be good with an average o-line. This should tell you how special JC is because he has never played behind a great O-line. Can you imagine if he ran behind that 2002-2005 line ??? He would have the single season rushing records for sure IMO.

I'm OK with it..,people seem to think a rookie WR is going to solve KC's "no TD by a WR" BS. Wilson is going to be as good as anyone drafted in the 2nd round...in this system. It takes at least a year...I want KC to go all defense in the first 3 rounds. They arent that far away from being the top defense in the league. You pair that with with Smith not turning the ball over...you win a lot of games.

I notice that you say the word, "hole" quite a bit. Why do you think this is? Why do you always have holes on the mind? What is the significance of that? Do you like holes?

many 810 callers/high school dropouts/window lickers will start threads talking about flying banners

Which fan base? CP will have a meltdown no matter who is drafted, but especially a HB.

The regular fan base will accept it immediately. Half of CP will rationalize any first round pick within the week. It happens every year. A week after the draft and everyone thinks the team has drafted 3 immediate starters who will lead them to that mystical first round playoff win.

I would be going wtf.

Most fans will true fan because they know nothing.

Most of the CP GM's wanted Dion Jordan who is about out of the league in two years

I mean looking back it probably should of been Sheldon Richardson or Star. But after the reeruns accepted not getting geno, most were fine with fisher as long as it wasn't joeckell. The fact is, that draft was utter shit.

Worst draft ever? Ever-ever? Eh-ever-ever? Ya think?

I'm not sure about ever. But the stand out talent was scarce.

He's not going to be as good as you think. Some team is going to draft him in the 1st round and be very disappointed.

Vacarro.

Could have replaced the turd we sent to Houston, and would have helped our current safety situation.

And yes, the "great" Parker would still have a spot on this team.

Ugh.

Tom Brady!!

Bro. Vaccaro has been terrible.

Gurley is going to be ****ing star.

He plays with the lazy-assed Saints, what do you expect?

Know who else has been terrible for that draft and pick? Any guesses?

That's right

Oh Frank... LMAO

I dont know much about this Gordon fellow he does seem to be a fine commissioner though.

Seriously can he hold onto the ball then maybe take a look. Jammal is getting long in tooth in running back years. Davis I dont think will ever shake the fumbleitus. I just wonder if this cant be addressed in latter rounds.

Ok, if you want to find a loophole.

Start a poll and see what happens if you ask people whether they would want to draft Gordon in the 7th round. Since the OP didn't specify.

Link?

I know Tori Gurley is going to be a star.

Todd, on the other hand...

Your "evidence" is a thread with 18 posts?

LMAO

BUT EVERYONE WANTED HIM ROFL

I know I haven't been around much, but when did Billay become representative of "most" of CP?

The planet has become an Idiocracy.

Pretty dishonest debate as well. Yes I wanted Jordan because at the time he was an athletic freak coming out of college. If the options were a pass rusher or right tackle most of us this board would pick the pass rusher.

Jordan will be out of the league soon but Fisher might not be far behind if he plays like he has most of the last 2 seasons.

Truth.

Fisher is garbage, and indicative of a regime with it's head up its ass.

I definitely support billay's pick of Nelson Agholor at 18.

And I've also joined him in the Da'Rick Rogers Nut-Swinging Club.

since he led the revolution against phobia, which I didn't agree with...

**** billay

ROFL

Fisher is not nearly as bad as Cp wants him to be. He hasn't been great, but cmon... Comparing him to dion Jordan is a bit ridiculous. Fisher will be in this league for a while. He has a lot to prove that he's a quality starter, however.

You...watch Fisher play?

Fisher is a lot closer to Tony Mandarich than he is Orlando Pace.

The Chiefs had their pick of ANY player in the draft, and three years later we're still debating if he can become a quality starter.

If any other organization had drafted him we'd ALL be calling him a bust.

I disagree. If he had been drafted by the Bucs or Panthers or Jets or Browns, no one on Chiefsplanet would even know he exists at this point.

And unlike Lane Johnson, Dion Jordan, Chance Warmack, Dee Milliner, Barkevious Mingo and Tavon Austin, Fisher has had legitimate reasons for not becoming the player he should be at #1, mainly playing out of position for a season and playing injured for the better part of two seasons.

2015 will be the first season in which Fisher will be able to participate in the Chiefs offseason program. I think everyone expects his level of play to rise based on more muscle mass, participation and repetition. If his play doesn't improve this season, then he's fair game.

The other guys listed, maybe outside of Mingo, appear to be pure first round busts.

Take the best player available. I'd even concede a very small dip in talent level if you need to draft a position of need. I trust Reid/Dorsey to make a competent pick.

Don't go full-on "Tyson Jackson" on me though.

Half the board will melt down no matter who we pick. Everyone will see what they want to see...

Oh. This

I hated the pick. I still do. It was a bad pick for 1.1. That is not the argument here.

But Jordan has been completely worthless. Fisher hasn't been good, but he hasn't been nearly as bad as people want him to be. He's been below average if anything.

Hoping for Agholor.
