Chiefs Are 'Badly' Trying To Trade Down To Middle Of First Round

Not sure if it has been posted.....

Chiefs Are 'Badly' Trying To Trade Down To Middle Of First*Round

by Joel Thorman on Apr 18, 2010 10:34 AM CDT in 2010 Campaign

Last year about this time, Michael Lombardi of the National Football Post first reported that the Chiefs were "in love" with LSU DE Tyson Jackson. A few days later and Jackson was the Chiefs pick in the draft.

Now Lombardi reports that the Chiefs are trying like hell to move down in the draft.

"The Chiefs are trying, and I mean really trying, to move down," Lombardi reports. "My sources tell me they'll be willing to go down as far as 15 for the right deal because they feel they can find a player in that range."

It's a fine line between trading down and trading down too far. According to Lombardi, our theory of the Eagles offering up the 24th and 37th picks for the Chiefs fifth pick doesn't look like it's happening. By staying around 15, they can still have a shot at a game changer -- Alabama LB Rolando McClain and Texas S Earl Thomas come to mind here -- as well as picking up extra selections.

That said, who's the Chiefs trading partner? SB Nation's Mocking The Draft takes an excellent look at this situation and comes to the conclusion that San Francisco might be the only team in that area that has a chance of moving up.

Lombardi reports the Chiefs are hoping someone wants to get in line to pick Notre Dame QB Jimmy Clausen.

This ****ing franchise makes me want to shoot my sister
We can only hope that Lombardi is doing his usual, being a dumbass.

I've been a big supporter of trade downs. But only if....
You get a huge draft compensation

OR

You think there's either a superstar at a lower positional value like Safety or a very good player at a high positional value like 3-4 OLB at that spot

OR

You're absolutely convinced that there are playmakers you need where you sit (like last year, where I think we absolutely should have traded down)

Because there are playmakers we can take, if we trade down, we sure as hell better get good trade value. And we sure as hell better not take a "safe" position like ILB or RT or a second-tier Safety like Thomas.

What do you think about changing the layout to have one forum for non-football stuff (the lounge) and one forum for football and draft stuff (yet to be named) and getting rid of the draft forum?

It worked in 2003, when we traded down to get Larry Johnson... we didn't need any defensive guys like Troy Paluamalu or anything. Especially in 2003 with GRob's awesome D.

I'm fine with the lounge as it is.

I have always been a detractor of the idea that draft talk, regardless of the time of year, should be in a seperate forum.

The only difference now and the rest of the year is that the draft forum appears at the top of the lounge.

Not my first choice but if Berry or Clausen aren't going to happen then go for it. Just glad the seem to be unwilling to trade back into the 20's.

Agree 100%. Its too bad some of these guys can't work for the Chiefs, we would win superbowls every season.....I guess its a shame they are too busy posting messages on a message board to get a job.

Good thing you jack off hogs for a living.

Having a Top 5 pick and only getting Thomas, Williams or Mays - and a 2nd and/or 3rd round pick to show for it - is criminal.
