Late night bullshit: drafting the Chiefs in the CP Mock.

[Direckshun]

Thanks to the ChiefsPlanet Mock gods (I.e. Pesty), I'm representing the Chiefs in this year's Mock.

I'm reasoning out my picks as much as time allows when my turn pops up, and I'll dump my reasoning for each pick in here for your ridicule and/or hero worship.

The mock doesn't allow for compensatory picks, but I'll make ersatz selections in this thread, too.

The OP will be updated as the mock goes on.

1. OL Cameron Erving, Florida State
2. WR Devin Smith, Ohio State
3. WR Justin Hardy, East Carolina
3. OLB Hau'oli Kikaha, Washington
4. ILB Taiwan Jones, Michigan State

They all should be available, and Erving almost certainly won't be, because he is virtually universally recognized to be the better and/or more valuable player.

And yet you preferred a handful of blatantly inferior WRs in the 1st.

Direckshun, I said Marcus Peters would have been my pick in the first had I been drafting for the Chiefs. What say you?

Blatantly inferior? To whom?

The best center in the world is less valuable than even an average NFL wide receiver and to argue otherwise would further prove that you're talking out of your ass.

Perimeter players are ALWAYS regarded with a higher premium than interior offensive lineman. Hell, the Chiefs just grabbed a two time Pro Bowler for a 5th round pick!

Your philosophy, as always, is flawed.

[Direckshun]

I think that would have been a fair pick, SNR -- my personal opinion is that selecting Peters would be a waste of a valuable 1st.

We have the league's 2nd rated secondary and we're returning the entire secondary. The Chiefs should bolster the depth there but I love what Suttons done.

Peters is a great talent though so I wouldn't complain much. I just think Hudson makes us better than Peters would have.

Are we still a 2nd rated secondary when we let Sean Smith walk next year? How about when Phil Gaines breaks his vagina for half the games again?

The Grubbs trade is largely irrelevant, and it firmly illustrates how you're muddling the waters here:

• Grubbs came with a high cap hit (which the Chiefs smartly fixed).
• Grubbs was being sold in a fire sale.
• Grubbs is 31.
• His play was decidedly NOT Pro Bowl caliber in 2014.
• HE WAS A FIRST ROUND PICK WHEN HE WAS DRAFTED.

Other than that, you're doing great.

If virtually nobody thinks Erving will last as long as ANY of the WRS you were advocating in the 1st, than he is a more valued asset.

I'd hope the Chiefs extend Smith.

Like I said, I wouldn't complain too much.

A center? Or a WR that can provide 800 yards and 5 TD's?

IMO, that's a no brainer, especially for a team that had zero TD's from it's entire wide receiving corp a year earlier.

You're reaching when there's no reason to reach.

[Direckshun]

I'll probably take the most valuable player that will make my team better, and land the WR you wanted in the 1st round in the 2nd.

Because I'm boss like that.

[Discuss Thrower]

I think any team that waits longer than the first 50 picks to get "their" WR will wind up getting burned.

Name the last time a center was the Most Valuable Player on a roster

[Direckshun]

I don't disagree that, all things being equal, an outside threat at WR is more valuable than a solid center.

You'll never see that Fisher bullshit again, I assure you. It seems Big Whistle actually learns from his mistakes.

He is....

the Anti-Lil' Chiefy GM.

Praise him with great praise!
