Who's the ONE guy that you just want in this draft? - Page 12

Chris Meck · 02-21-2022, 06:35 PM

Not like in the first round necessarily, just like...the guy you want.

For me, It's Rachaad White. The more I watch, the more I just think this kid is a perfect fit for KC, and could be had with our Poole pick most likely.

This team is not in the position to be wasting value because they think that one player is this amazing guy. One player is not going to help out this defense as much as people think it is.

My issue is "just fine" DE"s just end up being kinda meh. Now there's def value to be had with that, but I'm just not sure how that plays out.

It depends on your preference. Some folks like the Penn State pass rusher but others hate him and like a midget WR from Memphis who might be 150 lbs with a wet shirt on

Exactly.

I mean, with 4 picks in the first two rounds, there's going to be some very good DE and WR prospects available if we just sit tight.

This is a very thin draft at the top. You're likely trading above 15 to truly get an impact player at any position. However, it's absolutely LOADED in 2nd and 3rd rounds.

It's almost a perfect storm. Trading away multiple picks in THIS draft would be disappointing to say the least.

On the defensive line....depth of good pass rushers is what we should be after.

We could get THREE "just fine" DE's for the price of one trade up. I think that's how they're going to be building the team at these high priced positions in the future so maybe we should prepare ourselves for it.

All the more reason to not trade up. There just aren't that many blue chip prospects in this draft. Stay put.

RunKC · 03-28-2022, 09:41 AM

I actually think there is one guy we all universally like that could be taken at 30.

Sam Williams

He’s got size, excellent athleticism and very good production in the SEC.

Those guys always move up. Always.

My worry is that the whole 2nd/3rd round prospect talk going around is code for it's a shitty draft.

We need to hit a good solid draft here.

I we got him and Burks at 29 and 30, that's a pretty solid draft before the 2nd round even happens.

No, it’s just a matter of fact.

This isn’t a good draft at the top (15-20), but there’s great depth into early day 3.

That’s the consensus, and it’s not “code” for anything.

Dude, are you not aware of the COVID stuff?

There's several, several guys in this draft that should have come out earlier because of COVID.

It's one of the deepest drafts in recent memory, especially at edge and WR.

You should stop worrying about this stuff. It's a super deep draft.

Yeah he’s slated to be a top 40 pick but we all know he’s going first rd.

12.5 sacks and 15 TFL in his final year in the SEC
22.5 sacks and 32.5 TFL in his 3 year college career
6’4”, 261 lbs, 33 1/8 arms and barely under 10 inch hands
4.46 40 with excellent bend

Yeah he’s going in the first rd

Just depends on how much his off the field issues knock him down.

htismaqe · 03-28-2022, 09:52 AM

You know what, I've been reading a ton of scouting reports this morning and doing mock sims.

The ONE guy I want now is Treylon Burks. Get him at 29 and then take Edge at 30 and I'll be ecstatic.
