I would like to see the North WRs with some competent QBs. SHould have switched Fales with Thomas or something.

Havent watched the game really.

But in all honesty, if Demarcus Ware, and Aldon Smith can translate to the nfl as OLB's, I think this kid can.

Justin Houston was 285 lbs. at the combine. His legs looked like tree trunks. No one thought Hali was going to be able to transition to OLB at 275 lbs.

I don't think Ford will have any problems whatsoever in that regard.

Same thing last year with Jabaal Sheard. No one thought he could which is why the Browns drafted Mingo the Dingo. Should of just drafted fricking Milliner.....

They were saying that Dee Ford moved more like a DB than a DL player.

Wow, I thought Carr was going to get killed by Donald on that play, lol, but he got rid of the ball quickly.

Yup, he looks terrible. Wouldn't draft any of the North QBs in all honesty.

You have to ask the question "if he didn't have Sammy"...

Same goes for Logan Thomas. A set of very limited passers. Thomas goes to his first read or he runs. You can't win with that.

If your goal is to one day develop a quarterback into someone you can win a title with, Boyd and Thomas can get crossed off the list. Jmo.

Agreed. That's why what the Chiefs did last year of getting Bray, and stashing him was such a smart move.

And it will continue to pay off for them. I don't know what anyone will see in Logan Thomas. Although, I think with some good coaching, maybe ending up down in Carolina as a prospect behind Cam could help him out.

But, I see a lot of Kraepernick in him.

Players I really liked from the week of practice (NFL Network broadcast) and then the game.

LB Christian Kirksey – Iowa – 6-2, 234 – 3-4 round pick.
RB Charles Sims – West Virginia – 6-0, 214 3 round
RB Antonio Andrews – Western Kentucky – 5-10, 225 5-6 round
RB Jerick McKinnon – Georgia Southern – 5-9, 209 – 6 round
RB James White – Wisconsin – 5-9, 206 – 5 round
TE Crockett Gillmore – Colorado State – 6-6, 253 – 4-5 round
ILB Chris Borland – Wisconsin – 6-0, 245 – 3 round
DE Dee Ford – Auburn – 6-2, 243 – 1 round
DT – Aaron Donald – Pittsburgh – 6-0, 285 – 1 round
DT – Caraun Reid – Princeton – 6-1, 305 – 4 round
WR – Jordan Matthews – Vanderbilt – 6-3, 209 – 2 round
WR – Kevin Norwood – Alabama – 6-2, 197 – 6 round
CB – Stanley Jean-Baptiste – Nebraska – 6-3, 215 – 3 round
CB – Chris Davis – Auburn – 5-10, 201 – 4 round
CB – Aaron Colvin – Oklahoma – 6-0, 186 – 6-7 round –injury at practice really dropped his draft value.

Draft round projection came from NFLDraftScout.com

Based on their play this week, Chief’s needs, and projected round, I’d go…

1 – Leave that open for best pick available and probably a junior coming out in the draft.
2 – Traded for Alex Smith
3 – CB Stanley Jean-Baptiste
4 – ILB Christian Kirksey
5 – TE Crockett Gillmore
6a – WR Kevin Norwood
6b – CB Aaron Colvin

I realize this does not take care of Chief’s need at WR, DE, FS, and OT, but I think we address some of that with free agents. Keep in mind that this was based on the week of Senior Bowl. Also any other disclaimer I can throw in here.

Not a problem to me. With the amount of passing in this league now, you spend a lot less time in base sets and a lot more in your dime or nickel package. You need guys who can create push up the middle to help out Hali and Houston. We currently lack that person in the middle who can take advantage of 1 on 1 situations. Donald would immediately provide that.
