Mock draft based on CBS Draft rankings

[Ralphy Boy]

Okay, so I thought I'd take a run at a mock based on CBS' positional rankings, as if it were the Chiefs draft board. I don't necessarily agree with where they have some of the players ranked, but thought I'd take a stab at it with the rule being to not "reach" on a player by more than 10 picks past where they have him ranked.

They have the top 4 ranked as Suh, Berry, McCoy, Okung.

Pick #, Player, CBS's overall ranking
5 - Bryant, 10. I'll probably get slaughtered for this. I've changed it a half a dozen times between him, Bradford, Clausen & Spiller. I'd give anything to trade out of this pick, if Berry wasn't there.
36 - Jerry Hughes OLB, 38
50 - Vladimir Ducasse RT, 56
69 - Cam Thomas NT, 76
103 - Mardy Gilyard WR, 104
138 - Jeff Byers C, 138
144 - Jamar Chaney ILB, 146
146 - Alterraun Verner CB, 149

Really not how I thought it would play out. I really wanted to get a safety early, but didn't see one in the required range (Earl Thomas #19), that I thought would benefit the team more than who I picked. Nate Allen would have been there at #50 and would be hard to pass on.

In KC, he had one 1st & one 3rd last year. Total 2
In NE he had:
2008 1, 2, 3, 3. Total 4
2007 1, no 2nd or 3rd. Total 1
2006 1, 2, 3. Total 3
2005 1, 3, 3 no 2nd. Total 3
2004 1, 1, 2, 3. Total 4
2003 1, 2, 2 no third. Total 3
2002 1, 2, no third. Total 2
2001 1, 2, 3. Total 3
23 total in NE.

That's 25.

As far as your comment:
Seriously? You're going to break that out. Seriously? One draft here and you break out the "even in KC" card.

It's been pretty well documented that Pioli had almost no scouts that he trusted here last year, his forte was defense and we were converting to a 3-4. He didn't draft offensive help at all until the 5th round when he picked Brown and we all knew our o-line sucked.

Its all irrelevant, fact is you are probably right and we won't draft Bryant.

Now that you're done (God I hope your done) dwelling on the first rounder, what did you think about the rest of it?

Pioli was hired in 2000.

My bad, you're right. I had looked up his previous draft info a while back, while trying to get an idea who he would draft in the first round this year. Since they didn't have a 1st that year, I didn't write it down and forgot about that draft.

I should have counted it since his best draft pick ever was in the 2000 draft.

He added a OT Adrian Klemm with the 46th pick & RB JR Redmond with the #76.

I love the Gilyard pick. He is the real deal.
