Certified Corona free.

Post here. Pertinent free agent signings can still have their own thread. Anyone who replies with a Q, because something is buried in this thread should blah blah AIDS tree.

Now I have never done an NFL Draft, but I have put together a number of high profile events that require secure data and and whatnot. Here is what I'd do.

Obvious Steps

1. Have the entire Chiefs facility professionally cleaned and disinfected. You should do this anyway.
2. Determine what staff are required to be on site for the draft.
3. Determine where they will be located in the facility to comply with self distancing regulations.
4. Establish a war room of only key individuals.

There is NOWAY in help I'm doing this on zoom, Ubercall, or anything else. This is going to be in my facility, using my infrastructure the team uses daily. If something breaks down, you can walk across the hall way and get your question answered. You can use a phone system that is already in place, backed up by personal cell phones

If you want to get serous...

Sequester key needed staff 14 days out of the draft on the grounds of the facility.
Clark can rent some motorhomes, buses, trailers, whatever, to make sure that the staff can gather for the the draft.

These NFL facilities are self contained compounds. They have professional kitchens, are very large, and are perfect to use for the draft.

Zoom has security and privacy issues, which is why online classrooms are being bombarded by trolls while video calls have been routed through China.

And despite claiming the contrary, their end-to-end encryption of calls is non-existent.

It's trash.

Late risers. Willie Gay Jr could be our first pick. Isaiah Wilson also projected to go rd 1 by a few GM’s

I wouldn’t be surprised if Miss State LB Willie Gay Jr goes in early 2nd round. His interviews have been really good and he’s extremely explosive on tape.

I hope Patrick Queen is there but he’s projected to be taken by the Ravens who is 4 spots ahead of us

I believe #1 should be well underway as I thought I read the Home and away locker rooms were to receive major renovations.

[Chris Meck]

anyway.

If old man Suggs wants to come back on a cheap deal, play a role and get another ring, I'd be happy to have him on board. Even at 38, he still has to be accounted for. And he's an excellent mentor/saavy veteran.

[O.city]

So what FA's are still available that could help the Chiefs.

[Mecca]

Always knew Gay was going to go much higher than some of these places have him projected.

As far as guys left that could be helpful.....

Breeland
Bradham
Jason Peters...

[OrtonsPiercedTaint]

Since most draftees will not sign until July. Do they need the money to sign them. Available before the draft?

Peters?? Did Fisher or Schwartz die? And before you say let’s move him to guard........ yea let’s take a OT who made the all decades team at OT and move him to a new position. CP is stupid at times

He's like 38 years old he might be game for playing guard for a SB team.

The thought that after everything that has been said about him by most of the "talking heads" here and everywhere else that Gay might go in the top of the 2cd would be ironic.
