NFL Draft *****2022 NFL DRAFT THREAD - NO SPOILERS***** - Page 11

Version 2022 - THE MAHOMES ERA, PHASE TWO

Let's ****ing do this.

Rules for once the draft begins:

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!").
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. I will link those threads below. Pure knee jerk gold to reference in the future.

Here are our picks:
Round 1, #21 - Trent McDuffie
Round 1, #30 - George Karlaftis
Round 2, #54 - Skyy Moore
Round 2, #62 - Bryan Cook
Round 3, #103: - Leo Chenal
Round 4, #135: - Joshua Williams
Round 5, #145: - Darian Kinnard
Round 7, #243: - Jaylen Watson
Round 7, #251: - Isaih Pacheco
Round 7, #259: - Nazeeh Johnson

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

I just can't see how they would leave Dotson or Pickens on the board for a 24 year old DE but we'll see.

If they drafted Dotson over any of those DEs I mentioned.....it would be ****ing stupid.

Hell he's even left Wyett, Elam and Booth completely out of the first round and I can't see KC taking Mafe over them tbh.

They really need to maximize those top 50 picks.

We should be able to come away with 3 really good players.

Whether they trade up from 29, and/or trade back from 30, or up from 50, just move around to make sure you get the most out of those first 3 picks.

Wyatt? Maybe.

Why would they take Elam or Booth when they just took Gordon?

Because both are better than Gordon??

I like the player. Just think most years his value is mid 2nd.

**The Franchise** · 04-28-2022, 09:17 AM

I think my prediction right now is:

Trade up for Karlaftis. My guess is jumping Arizona at 23...most logical spot is the Pats at 21.
Elam, Booth or Gordon at 30 but a trade down could be possible. Hopefully not down far enough to where they miss out on one of those CBs.
WR at 50....maybe a slight trade up to get one.

After I said all that....they'll probably take Gordon at 29, trade down from 30 and grab Drake Jackson and George Pickens in the 2nd.

Mafe and Gordon.

There's a lot of mock drafts that have Gordon to the Chiefs and I'm here for all of them.

IF the draft were to unfold similar to this, and Karlaftis is sitting there at #21 when the Pats turn comes up, I think KC would prefer him to Mafe and might package #29 and that last fourth (#135) to move up and get him.

Pats are notorious for wanting to move back and add picks and their asking price usually isn't too high, so I think a late 4th could get it done (maybe throw in a 7th too). If Pats like the LB from Georgia (Walker), they could likely still get him at #29.

Chiefs get Karlaftis at #21, and agree that they still grab Gordon at #30 (assuming he's there and they keep the pick, versus trading back into the 2nd for more picks).

I’ll only be pissed if we take a player that is not on the field. No more Dee Ford’s that sit for a year before they do anything.

Need every player we draft in the first 2 rds (at least) on the field get in playtime week 1

Sassy Squatch · 04-28-2022, 09:24 AM

The only surprising thing Veach could do today for me is trade down.

Yeah i said Andy has a history with BB they would be a prime suitor to trade up with and probably not cost a lot but I'd only do it for DE like Karlaftis.

Depends who they take. If they're really building for the future, they need to prioritize long term instead of ready day 1

That’s not as important for me.

Preferably, they have an impact right away, but I’m all for taking a big swing like Ojabo or Metchie.
