Chiefs Are you glad that the Chiefs have dropped to the 5th pick in the draft?

Kylo Ren · 01-04-2010, 09:25 AM

I am.

It'll be harder to "reach" and draft a player too high. It'll be easier to trade down.

I'm ALWAYS an advocate of trading down. It seems to me that you get better results with more players drafted slightly lower than less players drafted higher. Maybe I'm wrong. But, this team has many holes to fill.

I just hope Tyson Jackson isn't gone.

**jAZ** · 01-04-2010, 09:27 AM

We couldn't trade down last year. Is there some magical top-5 talent that we can pass on but no one else can that's expecting to be sitting there?

I would never trade the embarrassing on so many levels thumping we put on Dinveer for a draft spot.

No Sir.

No Sir.

This. God that was beautiful. The other games we won felt more like cripple fights than anything else. This was DOMINATION against our most hated rival in their house that cemented their non-playoff doom. Awesome.

It's not like there is any guarantee of success with the #3 pick, and if Pioli is worth a crap (?) he should get us a solid starter with the #5.

I'll take the W at the donx place, thank you very much.

Heh, I think there's a lot of that going around.

That was a therapeutic win for the fans, I believe. Not just that they won, but that they flat kicked their asses in the 2nd half. It felt good to watch that game.

That's right, at the #3 pick, you could draft a Tyson Jackson....

You get more benefit by making the right selections than you do by trading down.

EVERY team thinks they made the right selection with their 1st round pick. I think you have a better chance of helping your team with the 10th and 23rd picks, than with the 5th pick. Not in every case, but in most cases. Hindsight is 20/20. But, I'm almost always interested in trading down.

**rockymtnchief** · 01-04-2010, 09:27 AM

I know I am. That 1-3 position pays too high and is almost impossible to trade out of.
