Let me disagree with my friend milkman and state for the record that I believe Colin Brown has absolutely no future as an NFL interior OL. He lacks the power and base to succeed there. He is just too high, center of gravity-wise. Colin Brown was Pioli's best ORT at the pick he was taken. Why Pioli didn't like Meredith is something only Pioli knows. Pioli certainly did know who Meredith was. |

I'm making assumptions based on observations from OTAs and camp. Theye worked him exclusively at RT until the second week of camp before he was moved to guard, and since has worked exclusively at guard. That strongly suggests he was drafted at RT.

His play at RG in the first two preseason games was remarkably impressive.

Someone, I want to say it was Dane but I'm not sure, after the dragt happened had some good insight. Whomever made the comment noted that the picks weren't "Pioli type picks". The picks were all physical specimens. Especially after the 2 DEs. The poster then went on to suggest that since Pioli was late to the game and had to use the in-house scouts (you'll remember they got promptly SHITCANNED) that he chose the guys with the greatest upside.
Valid point of discussion. We have no way of knowing, but it is a good possibility. Posted via Mobile Device |

Meredith ended up in Green Bay who has a really nice history of building OL's out of the first round.

I really enjoy these leaps of Piologic.

Not sure what you mean. Hopefully, your sarcasm meter is working.

Just because Pioli and Haley think something, that doesn't make it right. Nor does it mean that anyone that opposes them is incorrect. You just dropped the ultimate in Bush-league, copout responses. |

Sure, and for the most part this board was fine for awhile but this offseason turned us into 90% coalition where no one wants to express an opinion that isn't positive and even people who disagree saying things like "I'll default to Pioli"

What I don't get is how someone can post "Face it: There was a gross misjudgment of talent, both on the Chiefs existing roster and in the 2009 NFL Draft." If you're a Chiefs' fan, why post negative crap on something like this? There's other legit things to bitch about. Whatever. It's obvious that the "glass is half empty" crowd is here to stay.
