The Chiefs had a nice draft. I'd give it a B+. Berry is going to be a stud. McCluster is going to be Darren Sproles 2.0. Arenas is going to be very dangerous as a kick returner. Asumoah will be a solid guard to replace Waters eventually, and that TE from Iowa looks to be a solid pass catching TE.

I know you guys will be upset to hear this but so far the Chiefs have had a pretty good draft.

I think this draft so far is pretty solid too.

Spending a high pick on a fat guy just because you need a fat guy isn't an idea I'm in favor of.

I'm not all that impressed with the risks Baltimore took. Boom or bust guys. I think if we wanted a slot WR that could return we should have gone with Tate. Being that he already is a WR and all.

I don't think these are bad players but I think we avoided core positions for role players. Not smart when there are starters there on the board.

I think Berry and Asamoah were ****ing great picks and starters on this team for years. That said I pretty much disagree on all the rest of them so far...

Apparently on Scott Pioli's board they were, and he has given me no reason not to trust him thus far. Yes, I know Tyson Jackson hasn't been the most popular pick as of late but not every solid NFL player is great immediately. Who knows, maybe Tyson Jackson will be better in 2010. He can only get better at this point.

I agree that this board is for opinions but can you at least support your opinions with logic? Here's what seems to be the common logic: "He can't play because he's skinny" "He's a midget" "He is to fragile" etc... Hey, some of this might be true, but who are you to judge. Until he proves he can't play in the NFL why can't we just step back and think of the glass half full? What if they do succeed? Huh???

Mike May-I-suck-your-cock likes it. That should be good enough for us.

This X 2 - I love the Berry and Asamoah picks too. I also agree with your take regarding the avoidence of core players in favor of role players - and regarding said role players - IF they wanted a slot WR in the Wes Welker mold for instance, Shipley could have been had for much later than an early 2nd.

You're not making sense - Tyson Jackson is a great reason not to trust him if you were really looking for a reason or were open to one. Again, I'm not "judging" anyone - just giving my opinion. It seems that you're confused as to the difference. It's also not logical to draft role players on a team that needs so many core players when said team has 2 picks in round 2 to address the need for core players - Follow that logic?

Good job for the Chiefs so far. The team still has a long way to go, but this is a good step forward.

**buddha** · 04-23-2010, 10:02 PM

To be honest, our current TEs suck, so while some of you may consider it a throw away position, it may very well be important in CW's new scheme. I'm willing to wait on that one.

The pick that made zero sense to me was McCluster. We already have that guy in Charles. How many midget backs/slots do you need? One of them is a huge blocking liability...two of them means that two defenders aren't being blocked on each play. Granted, both of them are guys who can go the distance, but McCluster is tiny...and please stop saying that he's the next Sproles. He's not. He's much more likely to be the next Paul Palmer. And the bullshit about Philly was about to take him...? How the hell would anybody really know that? And is Dex McCluster so great that we get desperate and have to get him so high in the SECOND FREAKING ROUND? REALLY?

I hope he proves me wrong and he is just a slippery mother out there and contributes right away. I'll happily eat crow.

Arenas is just a freaking ball player. He's a smaller version of Brandon Flowers, but not much smaller. I like him alot.

The Illinois guard is good. Nobody will regret that pick, trust me.

Best post of the night. Fans who have no patience would make terrible GMs.

I don't think this is the board for you. Just a hunch.

Yep. Any speck of optimism is immediately shot down by the prevailing negativity on this board.

Le This.

This is a rough, tough, no bullshit type of forum.

Prepare for a lot of sand to find your vagina if you post here.

It isn't too bad when this team is winning. We have lost for so long, it is hard to be optimistic.
