C'mon Htis. I'm just trying to have a little fun, and there is no way that I'm as inflexible as the others.

And you know that I would love the possibility of trading down in this draft given the Chiefs situation with the players on the top of the board.

However, I don't necessarily know if Mayock is entirely correct in that there is no top talent in this draft. Last years draft looks quite suspect compared to this one, especially in the tackle and quarterback position. I remember that people around here were just waiting for the opportunity to even have a shot at Oher, and that was even after we drafted Albert.

The three top quarterbacks look quite good, especially when you look at the pre-draft potential of someone like Ryan and Flacco and Russell. Stafford, Sanchez and Freeman all look like upgrades. Add to that that many are touting Curry as the best LB prospect available in a long time, superior interior lineman, particularly centers, edge rushers that easily surpass last years class, etc.

I don't know why everyone around here is having a fit about this being a bad draft. It actually looks like a pretty damn good draft and a deep one at that. The only problem that the Chiefs face is that they have players at the positions that are on the top of the boards, or so I would assume. There's no real dominant 3-4 DE, no pure 3-4 ROLB or no truly dominant 3-4 NT, and that's what the Chiefs would really like to spend that #3 pick on.
