Don't count out Jevon Snead.

The only true pro-style QB of the group. If he has a decent senior season, I wouldn't be shocked to see him go mid-late 1st round.

I mean, Christ, if Josh Freeman can go 20th...

Because I've never been a draft spot/player position relevance type of guy. You get the best player available at the greatest position of need is my philosophy. If that's a TE or a ILB, then you take the ILB or TE, even if it's a top ten pick. And god knows that the Chiefs could stand a decent ILB regardless.

Spikes is an absolute beast. Big, physical, athletic and seems to have that rare trait that separates great MLB's from average ones in that he genuinely seems to want to decapitate people every single hit. I think he has a chance to be a special player in the NFL.

And Jermaine Gresham is one of, if not the, best tight end I've ever seen at the college level. Has every single tool that you could possibly want in a tight end. The prototype for that position in the modern football era.

That's why I have them as #1 and #2 on my wish list for next year. Also, I'm hoping that the NFL and the players association will work out a new CBA that sets a rookie draft cap a la the NBA so people/GMs/whoever are no longer as worried about taking a specific position due to the immense costs relative to the players draft spot and teams can actually focus on getting the best players available at positions of need in the draft. I think it would help bring a bit more parity to the league, at least in terms of teams getting players that could/might help them rather than reaching on positions that correspond to the pay scale.

I'm with you on spikes. But I'll wait and see what Cottam's got before I put Gresham in my top 10. Same goes for a RT in the 2nd. If they thought enough of Brown to take him in the 5th they must think there's a chance he can eventually play the spot, and his size gives him a lot of upside. If after a year they think he's not improving enough, maybe.

Keep this in mind, that there is a very strong chance that Denver and KC will be picking very close together in next yr's draft. Why? Because remember Denver traded away there first rd pick(2010) to Philly and Denver only has Chicago's first rd pick of 2010(Cutler trade).

What McDaniels has done to the Broncs is disasterous(if you are a Broncs fan) and beautiful(if you are a Chiefs fan-Me). I see the Chiefs winning at least 5 and maybe 7 games at the most and Denver will win 3 at the most IMO with this year's schedule for both teams.

Trading away that 1st rd pick will not only haunt them but it is also known that Bowlen did not want to pay for 2 1st rd picks in 2010 in an uncapped yr. Might have been smart but when you have as many holes as Denver does what a way to have bolstered your D up with 2 1st rd picks in the top 12. Remains to be seen.

I see the Chiefs and Bears having similiar records by year's end and look for the Chiefs and Broncs to picking within 1-3 slots from each other((8-12)competing for that NT IF our experiment doesn't work out which it probably won't and you know Denver doesn't have a NT either.

Denver either takes a LB or NT and Chiefs will either take a NT or LB IMO since both do not have all the pieces yet and both will run a hybrid 3/4 this season. Look for the NT/LB to be the competing position because Josh probably won't take a QB in the first rd(Patriot Way). Will be interesting to see the the possible moving up or down in the 1st rd next yr to compete for that NT or LB.

I believe the Bears will win more than 5 or 7 for sure. I think we will win 4 or 5. I don't expect us to be picking close at all actually.

The Bears have no elite recievers and their O-line is average at best and on the downslide. The Bears won't be able to run as good and their will be more of an intense pass rush on Cutler with average recievers. Just because they have Cutler doesn't guarantee a 10win season or the playoffs. Oh and their D is aging fast and is not what it was which means Cutler will have to work with a much longer field like he did here in Denver.

Again Chiefs and Broncos will picking within 1-3 slots of each other.

I agree that the Bears D is getting old, but their running game will be fine. Even without good receivers, just having Cutler will make them respect the passing game, opening up draw plays (or at least that works on Madden).

You all had a prospect debate without me? I'm shocked and appalled.

Someone did say that this years QB class is one of the best in a long time. So I'm guessing he liked him some McCoy. I can't remember what thread it was in.
