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

[O.city]

At 18 this year, unless something crazy happens and someone falls, the chiefs aren't likely to be able to take a blue chipper but can absolutely take a guy who can be a 10 year pro who could develop into an all pro.

Good place to be

I understand that Kush scares the shit out of a lot of people, but honestly, this is a stupid obsession some people have with filling that hole right here, right now.

It took Rodney Hudson a long time to figure shit out in the NFL. Expect the same for Cam Erving. If he underperforms, we have no choice but to get insurance for HIM next year.

Because honestly, the very problem we've had with building this offensive line the past many years has been an issue of, "I'm not worried about _______. We drafted him high. He's a good player. He'll be fine."

Only one of those players turned out to be "fine," and he's already gone. Asamoah, Stephenson, and Allen are all smelly turds and Fisher's Bustday Clock is reading 11:59 right now.

You know what, you're right.

Kush is gonna start and he's gonna be a badass. He works his frickin tail off I know that. He's very intelligent t and determined about this as well.

To be fair, drafting a center is a great idea if we're planning to transfer to the NBA during the offseason.

Whooooooole lot of bitching in this thread, but not a lot of the people complaining offering a better choice.

Shut the **** up.

I swear, for a guy that does TEN ****ING MILLION MOCK DRAFTS EACH YEAR, you never, ever learn from it. I don't think you even watch football - I think this whole internet thing is just a hobby.

But okay, I'll play: La'el Collins, Maxx Williams, Erik Kendricks, Tyler Lockett, Nelson Agholor, Rashard Greene, Eddie Goldman, Devin Smith, Andrus Peat.

Need I go on?

Hmmm... Interesting theory about this being a hobby of mine.

Of those players you listed, only Collins makes sense. Williams is a huge question mark and Goldman, who I love and alluded to in my explanation, is not a fit when we already have Poe -- hell, Melvin Gordon would make more sense than him, because at least Charles is nearing the end.

The rest of those players are hilarious reaches. Have fun with that.

So, congrats. Your best preference would have been drafting a RT instead of a center who can also play RT.

Edit: Peat would have been a good choice, too.

Drafting a center in the first round is absolutely stunningly stupid.

I couldn't care less what you think is a reach: Any of the players I listed would make an impact on Day One, and far more of an impact than a center.

And speaking of a "reach": Tamba Hali was "reach" in 2006 and 15 or 20 people on Chiefsplanet said that he could have been had 10 picks later.

it's funny, I was the one in charge of the tamba hali CP DRAFT pick... suck it, direkshun's mom, and lick my taint.

I simply disagree. I doubt that any of those players, with the possible exception of Peat and Collins, provide the Chiefs more value than Erving at either C or RT.

Sometimes Dane I want to give you a big hug. This is one of those times.

I'm telling you drafting for the CHIEFS in the CP Mock is a total mind

Cam Erving is a genderqueer lineman. Nobody knows what the **** he is. He probably doesn't even know what the **** he is.

I would draft a kicker in the first round before I'd draft a center. That's how ridiculous it would be to draft a center at #18 overall.

Now, Dallas drafted Frederick at #32, after trading back and after having a starting QB, running back, beasts at WR and TE.

But the Chiefs? Center?

Just kill me now.

Although I probably wouldn't have used SNR's particular words to describe Mr Erving, I fear he may be correct. Not sure I'd use #18 to draft a guy who's essentially a jack-of-all-trades for the OL. I get Direkshun's reasoning, but I think I'd rather take a guy who has mastered a position.

I was kind of in the Maxx Williams camp, but I heard that in his interviews, he was pretty much a me, me, me guy. Not sure we need a diva at TE. BUT, I am intrigued that he was dominant in the Big 10 as a redshirt sophomore. Has great hands and they get better in the red zone. Lots of upside.....and probably a good fit for our QB.

I'd also strongly consider a CB here; just not sure which one yet. Cannot have too many good CBs.

Probably go WR in the 2nd round.

"Jack" of all trades?

He was named to All Conference teams at BOTH LT and C.

He's an ace of all trades. And again, nobody churns out better centers than FSU right now.
