I like Bowe alot, not as much as Jarrett but I would be happy with either one of them before Ginn. But I think it would be a mistake not to take a WR at our spot.

What if those lineman aren't worthy of our pick, there is that to consider you know.

Trade up. Or trade down like Herm was considering and get a bunch of young prospects than you can develop.

Ugh.......I HATE this philosphy you want offensive lineman be damned. This is how you end up with busts notice the DT's we've drafted.....

We have alot more holes than just line.......

Trading up to get a player means were going to have a bust? Trading down and gathering a bunch of prospects is what Herm said he wanted to do a month or two ago. I didn't saying that was the best thing to do,but thats what he wanted/wants to do.

Levi Brown is the only Tackle worth moving for and guess what he's gonna go between 10-15 more likely......that kinda move would require more than a team with our holes should be willing to give.

well of course, there are a lot of things to consider, first of all who gets picked before we hit the clock.....

I'd like to target these;

WR - Bowe or Jarrett, either or both could be gone
OT - Brown if he fell, we would jump on. Staley, meh, I don't know.
Other OLine - if someone could impact and start, yes, don't know enough about them.
DT - wouldn't you love for Branch or Okaye to fall? But Harrell could be a good choice at 23 if Bowe, Jarrett are gone and no Brown or other Oline.

CB - maybe but depends on who is there, Like it was said a moment ago, Law and Surtain have a couple more starts in them, but I wouldn't be surprised to take a CB in the first, but do we need a first round talent with our scheme?

Other than that, who do we go for, I keep hearing BPA, but how do you tag someone like that? A.Peterson falls to 23, this BPA means we take him? He has injury concerns too.....

Any article talking about the Chiefs' "draft intentions" between now and draft time should be taken with a grain of salt.

Adrian Peterson would never make it past 12 so even pondering the question is foolish.

True.

However if the Chiefs were in the position to draft him, would you take that risk?

If I could spin it into trading Larry Johnson yea.....if not I probably wouldn't because they are almost carbon copies of each other, Petersons faster and a little more naturally talented but either way very similiar players.

AP is similar to LJ?


sorry for my last post then, I figured AP more priest holmes style, finesse type, I was wrong. I still don't know that I'd take him, we have something not broken, why fix it, fix the parts that aren't working well.

I think that Harrell very well could be the BPA available at 23, in spite of his inury history, and not as the result of the otherwise lack of depth and talent at the DT position.

He's a guy with talent and heart.

He, like Peterson, is someone I would take the risk with, because his injuries aren't the nagging type that red flag a player's desire.

They are the result of being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

if you rate him high you do ....... then you look to trade LJ instead of giving him a new huge contract.

I wouldn't, wasted pick IMO - even at 23. We have a style now and a good runner that fits that style, throwing AP in the mix would mess things up even if he didn't turn up bust. I like the idea of BPA, but there has to be a range, we have several needs and a few holes, but RB, TE, LB, S shouldn't be in our first round plans.
