What is your preferred draft strategy?
I'm not fond of just sitting still and taking BPA. Although, as Andrew Brandt wrote yesterday, http://mmqb.si.com/2014/05/07/nfl-draft-war-rooms/ that strategy got the Packers Aaron Rodgers in 2005.
I'm not sure about just drafting for need either. That can make you reach for a player that isn't necessarily worthy of the pick. In NFLN's 'Caught in the draft' 1994, Jimmy Johnson was quoted as saying "I never really wanted to just take the BPA. I wanted to just take the player I wanted". That's when Jimmy went to Jerry Jones about creating some kind of draft trade value card so they could better figure out how they could move up or down to "Go get" the players they wanted. ![]() |

For this particular draft, I want us to trade back and accumulate as many top 100 picks as we possibly can.

Ignoring QBs and drafting linemen early. Why I'm a Chiefs fan.

Why would you want to draft a QB early to sit when you already have a good starting QB in his prime with at least 5 years of good football left on the roster? We have holes elsewhere where our draft picks are better spent if we want to have a chance at winning over the next several seasons.

1. Draft players who have proven it in college.
2. Draft players who aren't boom or bust in rd 1. It rarely works. 3. Don't draft broke dicks.
