NFL Draft *****2020 NFL DRAFT THREAD - NO SPOILERS***** - Page 5

Dante84 · 04:54 PM

Version 2020 - WORLD CHAMPION EDITION

We are now within 24 hours - Cincinnati is on the clock.

Let's ****ing do this.

Rules:
1. No spoiled picks in this thread, all weekend. This means that as tweets are leaking picks a few minutes before the selection is announced live, you don't post it in this thread (ex: embedded tweets), reference it in this thread (ex: Joe Slapdick says it's So and So to Green Bay) or hint at it (ex: "it's a RB!").

2. Don't be a dick.

Otherwise, have fun, talk shit, freak out and lose your goddamned minds. It's Draft Weekend. The hot takes in these threads are so funny. I'll also be starting player threads for each of our picks as they are made, with videos and notable stats/takes in the OP. Pure knee jerk gold to reference in the future.

Here is our current pick order:

Round 1: Pick No. 32: CLYDE EDWARDS-HELAIRE, RB, LSU
Round 2: Pick No. 63: WILLIE GAY, JR, LB, MISS. STATE
Round 3: Pick No. 96: LUCAS NIANG, OL, TCU
Round 4: Pick No. 138: L'JARIUS SNEED, DB, LA. TECH
Round 5: Pick No. 177: MIKE DANNA, DE, MICHIGAN
Round 6: No Picks
Round 7: Pick No. 237: THAKARIUS BOPETE KEYES, CB, Tulane

Here is a list of the prospects the Chiefs have shown interest in this year.

Who out there is willing to pay that price? Tampa is going for it and could use an interior rusher, but getting the OL help they need for Brady gets tough if they move #14.

Jaguars.

If they trade Ngaukuoe, they'll have a hole and get a better player who knows how to be a professional like Jones. Rather have Jones, pay Jones, and get rid of a malcontent who argues with the owner on Twitter to drum up public sympathy like Ngaukuoe.

Get #9, get Ruggs or maybe Simmons if he drops a couple picks.

I am so ready for this.

Monticore · 04-23-2020, 08:34 AM

I think they will go with BPA LB, CB, IOL, RB once they trade back. If they LB CB targets are not there I wouldn't be surprised they take an RB.

Gil Brandt in front of a mic these days reminds me of when Dick Clark had a stroke and they made him do New Year's Eve coverage anyway.

Leave the poor man alone and let him die in peace.

They don't give a rats ass if they have a hole, they are tanking the **** out of their season.

ChiefBlueCFC · 04-23-2020, 08:38 AM

So no idea how tonight is going to go, but if I had to take a guess: We trade down out of the first round due to what players we wanted to select being taken before they get to us. With that being said, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say we draft a RB (Clyde Edwards-Helaire is my exact guess) early in the second and then get Bryce Hall with our original 2nd round pick.

Now that I've typed it out, it's not going to happen at all.

Eventually you'll need pieces to build back up, even if you're tanking for Lawrence. Chris Jones to anchor your DLine for the next four to five years would help Lawrence on the other side of the ball, and if they're dumping contracts and going young then they'll have the money to pay him.

And boy did that fail on Ngaukuoe's part. He got dunked on by the owner.

Which is why the Raiders rumor is the only team I can see that is stupid enough to pay him a chunk of their salary cap like that. No way I'm paying Ngaukuoe $20 million just because it's the price of doing business.

Not now though, if they wanted that why wouldn't they just draft Kinlaw at 9?

**Bwana** · 04-23-2020, 08:54 AM

The draft threads are always entertaining. They go something like this every year:

And with the_____pick, the Kansas Chiefs pick ______. This is always followed up by several people saying, What are they thinking! They could of had _________ with that pick! Veach you dumb son of a bitch! The various news stories and videos start to come out about the players we picked and the reaction is, oh, I'm really starting to warm up to ______ good call Veach!

To each their own, but at this point, I go with the theory that they know more about the players they draft then I do and subscribe to the I'll wait and see program.

Matt Miller Final Mock:

1. Kristian Fulton
2. J.K. Dobbins
3. Curtis Weaver
4. Nick Harris
5. Joe Bachie

I’d be pretty happy with this, though I’d like to come out of this draft with a WR.

Mecca · 04-23-2020, 08:58 AM

Weaver is intersting...he'd basically be a weakside end in our scheme though.

For cheaper cost and a few years younger is the only reason. Kinlaw vs. Jones, I'm taking the sure thing and most teams would as well.

Yep I always take the wait and see approach. I sure as hell don't want to say something as dumb as "Won't Sniff the Playoffs!" Or fire/dump that worthless POS!
