Is this kind of Draft repeatable? - Page 2

**Rain Man** · 05-02-2008, 04:17 PM

Did I fall asleep and miss several seasons of high productivity? Let's go back and read what we were saying about Junior Siavii and Ryan Sims before we anoint this as a great draft.

What would you examine the odds as being?

Hmm. Well, they should be able to reproduce their C+ first day.

Were you drinking that night? You've raved over the draft since then. What happened?

The second day happened. I have loved every single pick from the second day, save Merritt. I think it will give us the depth we need for years.

I still contend the Albert pick was questionable. I would have taken Otah and kept our additional 5th. But if Albert starts at LT on day one, I'm wrong immediately. If Albert's RT and they eventually work him in at LT and he's good, I'm wrong. Flowers I really wasn't happy about because the Facebook stupidity showed immensely poor judgment that could come back to haunt this team. But if he keeps his nose clean, it's possible that we had a great first day as well. I just would have opted for Groves or Hardy.

Fair enough. I loved our draft. Every last oz. of it. I loved Charles, and I was happy with Cottam. I have no doubt that you know more about these players than I do though. Time will tell.

I think so, but as mentioned above getting both Albert and Dorsey made it a slam dunk A+ draft.

The good news is the Chiefs FO has to feel like what they did worked and worked well. So if it ain't broke, don't fix it. I think we will see the same effort for years to come, no matter who the HC is as long as Kuharic is here. Thus we need to make him fat and happy.

The Chiefs talked this year about how they scouted deeper and more thoroughly this year (presumably because they knew they were going to rebuild through the draft quite a while ago and because they were stockpiling picks for this draft in particular). I'd be interested to know how much more their scouting operation cost them this past year and whether or not they plan to continue to invest a similar amount in future years.

If you can hit on your first day picks your drafts are always better than when you only hit on one or a few of the late picks.

I give this years draft a solid c+.

Huh?

A C+? Draft grades are usually somewhat in comparison to other teams in the NFL so there is no way we are a C+. If we are a C+ then every other team in the NFL is a C or below.

**the Talking Can** · 05-03-2008, 06:54 AM

Dorsey
Alberts
Flowers
Charles

if they're what people think they are, then we will never come close to that kind of haul in 3 rounds....

SBK · 05-03-2008, 03:20 PM

Bunch of douches around here don't get the C+ thing even after it's mentioned even in this thread.

StcChief · 05-04-2008, 09:51 AM

When we have another near 4-12 season....but less picks let's see if they draft well in every round with only 1 pick/round.
