ChiefsPlanet - 'Tis Draft Eve

On the eve of this year's draft, I just wanted to say I strongly feel this will be one of those drafts we reflect upon a few years from now and say, Wow!

We already know what our second round pick is- Surtain, of course. We can take comfort in knowing we have a dependable veteran to fill a dramatic need.

What's good is- we still have a lot picks to add some depth, and hopefully find a gem or two to fill some needs.

My gut tells me something exciting will happen for us in the first round and that we will get very lucky- whether this means we nailed a Carlos Rogers or a Derrick Johnson, I'm not sure. It could also mean a blockbuster trade to secure even more picks.

But, I honestly believe Carl and his boys are going to use sound judgement this time around. I trust they will succeed again in the mid-to-late rounds, but more importantly- I think they just might get a steal in the first and third rounds.

Call me eternally optimistic or a blind homer, but I'm getting the same feeling as a child does on Christmas eve- and that it doesn't matter if Santa is real or not- the magic always is. Let us hope we score some magic tomorrow on the day of the draft.
