Yet that draft has 5 starters...you get 5 starters out of any draft it's good.
The Chiefs most likely won't have 5 starters out of these last 2 drafts combined, ponder that. |

Eh they wouldn't have 5 starters if they had the standard 7 picks that year which is my point. Still though should we compare Charles to Kris Wilson since he's only really a part time player? Theres no doubt Pioli ****ed up last draft but i've been impressed with this years rookies so far.

But out of 2010, Berry and Asamoah are pretty much surefire starters. Kendrick Lewis and Tony Moeaki could start as soon as this season. And Javier Arenas and Dexter McCluster will likely contribute to about a starter level. To say that this draft is going to yield 2 starters or less is the definition of misleading. 4-5 of those guys will have a significant role with this team and 1 of those guys could on the very big "if" he stays healthy. |

The rest of these guys have a lot to prove before they "resemble surefire starters." Especially, Moeaki, the one-catch, injury-prone wonder.

McCluster and Arenas look exactly like backups right now. McCluster looks like a backup running back who can't hack it as a slot wide receiver, which still wouldn't be a starting position, but would be enough to justify his draft position. Arenas looks like a backup corner who is a good punt returner. Lewis, if he starts, will only start because we have shit at safety.

Wish they'd gotten more out of '09, but they didn't. Looks like Jackson and Succop are it out of that class. They may have 5 starters out of the last draft, though, if Moeaki manages to get and stay healthy, with Barry, McCluster, Asamoah, Moeaki and Lewis, and Arenas as nickel corner is already essentially a starter, too. I would be surprised if they weren't all playing significant time by the end of the year. I think Sheffield has a chance, as well, further down the road. As much as I didn't like '09 (and I didn't like anything about '09) I really like what they did this year.

If that is in fact the case, and the '09 draft was indeed a horrible bust, that doesn't necessarily mean that Pioli = horrible bust. Not at all, in fact. |

There are a lot of idiots on that site, but everyone makes mistakes. Quote:
Jackson (never will live up to his draft position, but will play solid football for us by the end of the year IMO under this coaching staff) Succop (tied the NFL rookie record for field goal accuracy, missed NO kicks under 40 yards and only one kick all year under 50 yards. 2-5 from 50+) Berry Lewis Moeaki Asamoah DMC and Arenas will both play more than half the snaps and play pivotal roles for us on special teams as well. The like the 10 draft class as much as I dislike the 09 draft class. |

Moeaki looks awesome. He had the best 1-catch preseason in the history of the NFL.
