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.

Trading down a playmaker for a safe but relatively effective player is a horrible decision. That's essentially what they're doing here.

If they're trading down, they need to either get two first day picks or they need to take a guy with playmaker potential, like potentially a 3-4 OLB.

It's not like last year, when it was pretty much Sanchez or second-rate first round prospects. This year, Berry is very likely going to be on our board and there isn't a single person who would disagree that this kid is going to be a playmaker.

What if Berry gets killed in an auto accident the day after we draft him. Then you'll wish we had traded down and taken Earl Thomas.

Clark Hunt's business model is something to behold.

Pay a GM 5 million a year.

Pay 2 coordinators over 4 million combined a year.

Pay the HC 3 million a year.

Have the lowest ****ing payroll in the entire NFL.

Reward shit players with big contracts, have your highest paid player be a 5 technique who can't rush the QB.

I'm going to open up a garage and pay a top mechanic. Then I'm going to buy the mechanic some spare tools that I picked up at a junk yard. That should really benefit my business.

If I could rewind the tape to when I was 9, I'd pick a new ****ing team. This shit makes me ****ing furious.

Calm down, just remember Carl is gone and Pioli AND Clark are both way smarter than you.

This ****ing franchise makes me want to shoot my sister

Well, he's doing a damn good job at getting JAG's. (Just Another Guy)

Hell, Pioli was quoted as saying something to the extent of, My job is to build a team, not collect talent.

Someone has seen Hoosiers and the Mighty Ducks movies one too many ****ing times.

Welp, I'm already resigned that its going to happen. ****.

What matters now is the compensation. This draft is deep enough that a trade down could yield a bevy of starters if Pioli drafts appropriately. (Haha.)

They obviously have someone targeted and if they can't trade they will probably reach. If they get the right player it will be fine. This place is gonna explode though.
