Interesting stats on the last 22 years of drafts for KC.

since '82 chiefs have had only (3) top 5 picks:

84 Maas (5)
88 Neil Smith (2)
89 Thomas (4)

all of these guys were huge for us!

since '82 chiefs have had only (4) 6 thru 11 top pick positions, all have been busts.

82 Hancock (11)
83 Blackledge (7)
86 Jozwiak (7)
02 Sims (6)

Biggest Steal! '93

the year we had no 1st or 2nd round picks

we picked up Will Shields in the 3rd

Best overall Draft was in '96

we had the 28th pick and we picked up woods,tongue,edwards,and horn respectively! Boy we could use all of these guys right now!

all other notables pickups

'92 carter rd 1 pick 20
'90 grunny rd 2 pick 40, szott rd 7 pick 180
'97 gonzo rd 1 pick 13
'99 tait rd 1 pick 14

Bottomline is top 5 pick is HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The fact that we haven't had many the last 20 plus years and the fact that we have had only one really great draft (in '96) is a big factor why we are where we are today!
