Well the Rams and Dolphins took the best lineman off my hands. Again the Raiders for the second time in this draft stay true to the board and go BPA, they take Kentwan Balmer, DT North Carolina. Raiders now have the building blocks for the future of their defensive line in Chris Long and Kentwan Balmer.
Chiefs are now on the clock, I have a feeling it will be Brandon Flowers. Mecca your turn. |

Yeah I don't like Long and Balmer on the same line for the Fade.
Edit: For us, that is. |

I personally think this pick is a no brainer...the Chiefs once again play a cover 2 defense with a defensive minded head coach...You can never have to many pass rushers and playing to the depth of this draft...
With the 35th pick in the draft the Chiefs select......Quentin Groves, DE, Auburn Now some people may wonder about this pick. To me this is an easy pick. Groves brings ridiculous athletic skills to this position. He's run 40's under 4.6, he has experience at both LB and DE. He is somewhat like Vernon Gholston with the versatility he brings and things he can do. In a cover 2, especially in pass situations a player with Groves speed and athletic skills can be a true menace off the edge. This guy brings true explosion speed and athleticism to his position everything you want in the kind of defense the Chiefs want to run. Groves is the kind of end the Colts defense is built on, basically a perfect fit here and now we have 3 ends and can take advantage of the versatility of Hali to move inside and Groves to even play some stand up OLB. With this pick everyone should jump for joy because Groves is a legit first round talent that can be a 12+ sack guy every season. |

I would love it if this was how the first two rounds played out for the Chiefs, but the Planet would flip out

Groves is a first round talent in the gym, that's for sure. He hasn't played like it on the field.

I think he can be a Robert Mathis type, maybe even a John Abraham type when he was you know good. |

He wasn't healthy for a lot of the year. He absolutely wreaked havoc whenever Florida played Auburn. Playmakers come from the SEC and Chiefs don't have many of either.

This would also give the Chiefs a very young very talented rotation of 6 Dlinemen.
