Gretz-True Fans Speak:It’s Aaron Curry or Trade Down
Readers Speak: It’s Aaron Curry or Trade Down
February 23, 2009 - Bob Gretz | Thanks to all of you who responded over the weekend to our first fan poll on what the Chiefs should do with the third pick of the first round in the NFL Draft two months from now. As we noted, it’s way too early with free agency not even begun yet, but we wanted to set the bar and see what folks were thinking before we go through 60 days of paralysis of analysis on the draft. Right now, the feelings of a majority of folks is apparent: if the Chiefs keep the choice, they should select Wake Forest linebacker Aaron Curry (right). But if they can, just as many of you believe the Chiefs should trade down in the first round, picking up extra picks. After sifting through nearly 100 responses, here are the totals: Linebacker Aaron Curry: 27 Trade Down: 26 Quarterback Matt Stafford: 6.5 Offensive Tackle Eugene Monroe: 4 Wide receiver Michael Crabtree: 3.5 Quarterback Mark Sanchez: 3.5 Nose tackle B.J. Raji: 2.5 Any offensive lineman: 2 Wide receiver Jeremy Maclin: 1 Defensive end Brian Orapko: 1 Nose tackle: 1 We will revisit this subject a month from now. Until then, keep talking the draft, personnel, free agency and the Chiefs. |

JFC.
I'm honestly surprised that "Trade Down" wasn't higher. |

Blob is just trying to convince the Chiefs that he is relevent. Almost a 100 responces? How many were his own? At least four apparently since we have several ".5" responces.

Zubaz pants, IROC-Z, and old free agent QBs. Obviously, this fanbase is a little slow on the uptake.

He's the "safe" pick a very good player, but Curry won't be a worldbeater. There's the added fact that KC fans are praying that this cat will be a Derrick Thomas clone which he's not.

And before you label me the latest nickname of the day, I still hope we draft Stafford or Sanchez. But that doesn't mean I can't recognize that Curry is a special player. |

Curry has all the tools to be a stud linebacker in the NFL.
Fast 40, ridiculous athleticism. Great coverage linebacker. I wouldn't shed a tear.
