Herm out-scouted the entire NFL.
Say that out loud. Or just type it out.
It's truly amazing what they did. They out-scouted the entire NFL not just in rookies, but in what other teams wanted and were looking for (note how they beat the Eagles to Albert). They out-scouted them with small school players, they out-scouted Draft experts, they out-scouted everybody. Merritt's the perfect example. Everybody who heard about Central Florida watched their games for Kevin Smith. But the Chiefs watched the games, and they came away with a high opinion of a blocking tight end with a massive frame that nobody else in the NFL even acknowledged existed. Carr as a 5th rounder looks like amazing value for one of the best CBs to have played in DII over the last decade or so, and has the measurables to compete in the NFL. This is just a great weekend for Chiefs fans. A time not to just enjoy your team but to be proud of them. Who the hell knew Herm was capable of this? |

I didn't like the Albert pick and I thought the Flowers pick was risky, but I believe our Draft was above average and one of the best in the entire league! Jackass. I'm scouting you and taking all your pet choices in next year's mock. |

You know.. its not just Herm. I think the chiefs just put a lot more effort into scouting than usual this year. As a whole.. not just him.

It's been made public that Clark Hunt handed the keys of the draft (and possibly the franchise) over to Herm. This was HIS draft. Not "Hot" Carl's. Not Kuharich. Herm's. Mr. Scout. |

I just want to say that the Chiefs took several players that I was on for months...

As Direckshun told me, I'm pretty much married to this draft class at this point, if these guys don't pan out I'll never hear the end of it. |

He's taking the Flowers character thing way to seriously, it was a picture, it wasn't like he punched a cop in the head.

Wow I'm really liking some of our picks. I was most curious/disappointed about the DE part of the draft. However after reading this tidbit about our 7th round DE I'm very curious what will happen. If only KC had a tradition of developing these small school DE's....
