I think speed to power and strength is something you can add to a rusher. I'm not sure you can really improve bend.

I'd think it's more of a natural trait than something you can really coach up. You can improve it a bit through technique, but the natural ability level is important.

All the reports I've seen on him are that he CAN bend and that he has speed to burn.

Yeah, especially with the realization that anyone you take there is gonna have some holes in their game otherwise you woudln't be getting them there.

I will just drop this here. I think Ika would be a legitimate pick at the end of the first round. Crazy nimble and explosive, 6'4" 350? He will demand doubles, and interior pass rush will amplify the performance of GK and whatever gem we find in the draft this year to replace clark

I'm down with something like that. That's why I'm really interested in adding Da'Ron Payne in the middle if he hits FA.

JohnnyHammersticks · 11-24-2022, 07:50 PM

Dalton Kincaid is the best college TE in the country. He's got perennial all-pro written all over him. That being said, we're too stacked at that position to use the high pick it's going to take to get him.

Direckshun · 11-29-2022, 02:32 AM

OT Broderick Jones, Georgia

The more film you see on Jones, and the more you read on him, the less likely it is that he will remain on the board by the time the Chiefs select. There is an athletic profile that the NFL craves in its tackles, and Jones is the epitome of that skillset. He is athletic in ways that are just unfair; he has fantastic length, great size, moves easy, with a kickslide that can set him deep or shallow if need be, and everything you need for a nimble, dancing bear in pass protection to someone who can drop plow and stone a bullrush.

It's easy to forget, though, that Jones "only" has a little under two years starting experience, his technique is all over the place, in both the pass and the run game. So the question is, how fast do you think he can learn on the job, and that's something teams will have to figure out in interviews.

I think we all broadly agree that the most sensible policy at left tackle in 2023 is to tag Orlando Brown, draft a stud tackle high, and have them learn on the job at right tackle before taking over left tackle in 2024. Jones will be able to physically do everything the Chiefs ask of him if he lasts long enough to get draft, but the question is how much do you trust Andy Heck to mold a left tackle out of him by 2024. I'd put the odds at very high.

Direckshun · 11-29-2022, 02:42 AM

DE Felix Anudike-Uzomah, Kansas State

One of the players this forum should watch closely throughout the draft process as a second day prospect is Anudike-Uzomah. How does he do in interviews, how does he look in drills, what do the rumor mills say about team research into his character and work ethic.

This forum in particular has argued that the Chiefs should hunt for speedy, situational passrush demons on the 2nd day of the draft, and Anudike-Uzomah fits that bill. Given that he's 6'3" 255 lbs, he is not a "traditional" Spags DE and is probably best suited as a 3-4 rushbacker, but the Chiefs have shown proclivities to look at rushers his size if everything else about him checks out, which is why they were so intrigued by Mike Danna. He has great explosion, and can destroy the edge, turning on a dime and attacking the pocket around tackles -- when his technique is on.

And that's the kicker. Anudike-Uzomah is more athletic and explosive than Danna, but he's nowhere near as sound technically. He is extremely raw, especially in the run game where he just seems completely lost. His ability to contribute in his first year will be only in obvious passing situations. But he has Elvis Dumervil upside to me, if you're patient enough to teach him the position. I'd consider spending a 3rd on that.

Edit (1/3): I've been watching the TCU games the last couple weeks they played and I'm upping FAU to a 2nd.

Urc Burry · 11-29-2022, 09:28 AM

This might sound crazy. And I’m not sure it isn’t. But man, TE Darnell Washington has me intrigued. Especially since he’s trending towards being a first rounder. But 6’7 270. And is a FREAK. An absolute eraser as a blocker, and has unlimited potential as a receiver. Andy has obviously been infatuated with multiple tight end sets the last couple years. Plus Kelce isn’t getting any younger.

Still would rather go DT or another edge. But I honestly think I might go Washington over WR

I don't think there's a snowball in hell's chance he's there at the back of the 3rd, but I would be ecstatic if he was.

Agree with this. Guys that get double-digit sacks in Power5 conferences tend to be gone by then.

Bottom of the 2nd may be doubtful for him being there, much less bottom of 3.

A bit similar to Drake Jackson but a bit more productive. I don't know, but I'm guessing he's going to end up a top-50 guy.

I would agree he is likely going before we draft him, but I don't think the Chiefs should burn a pick higher than a 3rd on a guy who (a.) doesn't fit our system, and (b.) is way behind in technique.

That being said, I'm not in the interview rooms, and I'm not testing these guys behind the scenes. If he shows out there, who knows.

End of the 2nd I think he'd be good value. He'd immediately provide juice as a situational rusher. The rest would take more time but the potential is there. But agree with kccrow he's probably gone before then as well.

Dull Tools · 12-02-2022, 05:07 AM

Just seen Dane Brugler's first mock draft. Interesting where he has people going as they are much higher up than a lot of the big boards I have seen going round.

Direckshun · 12-02-2022, 10:48 AM

DT Bryan Bresee, Clemson

Bresee makes sense for the Chiefs under exactly one circumstance: if the Chiefs foresee being unable to retain Chris Jones. I think this is unlikely, but it's very on brand for the Chiefs to use draft picks to prepare for future departures.

Bresee is a very active, one-gap shooting tackle who explodes out of his stance to menace backfields. He gives up some size to Jones (6'5", 300 lbs to Jones' 320) but he somehow has room on his frame to bulk up. He was the #1 recruit in the nation, and was largely thought to eventually end up as a Top 10 pick in 2023 -- until disaster struck and he tore his ACL.

ACL's are not the death sentence that they once were, and his tape in 2022 has been very strong, though not the elite wrecking ball stuff we saw before his injury. The Combine and medicals will go a long way to determining if he's still Top 10 material. If he's not, the Chiefs have as good a medical staff as anyone in the league and they're uncharacteristically patient with player development. He makes some sense as a trade-up candidate or staying put at our pick in the 1st.

JohnnyHammersticks MVP Join Date: Oct 2011 Location: Chandler AZ Casino cash: $2461254	Dalton Kincaid is the best college TE in the country. He's got perennial all-pro written all over him. That being said, we're too stacked at that position to use the high pick it's going to take to get him.

Direckshun __ Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: Springpatch Casino cash: $4183447	OT Broderick Jones, Georgia The more film you see on Jones, and the more you read on him, the less likely it is that he will remain on the board by the time the Chiefs select. There is an athletic profile that the NFL craves in its tackles, and Jones is the epitome of that skillset. He is athletic in ways that are just unfair; he has fantastic length, great size, moves easy, with a kickslide that can set him deep or shallow if need be, and everything you need for a nimble, dancing bear in pass protection to someone who can drop plow and stone a bullrush. It's easy to forget, though, that Jones "only" has a little under two years starting experience, his technique is all over the place, in both the pass and the run game. So the question is, how fast do you think he can learn on the job, and that's something teams will have to figure out in interviews. I think we all broadly agree that the most sensible policy at left tackle in 2023 is to tag Orlando Brown, draft a stud tackle high, and have them learn on the job at right tackle before taking over left tackle in 2024. Jones will be able to physically do everything the Chiefs ask of him if he lasts long enough to get draft, but the question is how much do you trust Andy Heck to mold a left tackle out of him by 2024. I'd put the odds at very high.

Direckshun __ Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: Springpatch Casino cash: $4183447	DE Felix Anudike-Uzomah, Kansas State One of the players this forum should watch closely throughout the draft process as a second day prospect is Anudike-Uzomah. How does he do in interviews, how does he look in drills, what do the rumor mills say about team research into his character and work ethic. This forum in particular has argued that the Chiefs should hunt for speedy, situational passrush demons on the 2nd day of the draft, and Anudike-Uzomah fits that bill. Given that he's 6'3" 255 lbs, he is not a "traditional" Spags DE and is probably best suited as a 3-4 rushbacker, but the Chiefs have shown proclivities to look at rushers his size if everything else about him checks out, which is why they were so intrigued by Mike Danna. He has great explosion, and can destroy the edge, turning on a dime and attacking the pocket around tackles -- when his technique is on. And that's the kicker. Anudike-Uzomah is more athletic and explosive than Danna, but he's nowhere near as sound technically. He is extremely raw, especially in the run game where he just seems completely lost. His ability to contribute in his first year will be only in obvious passing situations. But he has Elvis Dumervil upside to me, if you're patient enough to teach him the position. I'd consider spending a 3rd on that. Edit (1/3): I've been watching the TCU games the last couple weeks they played and I'm upping FAU to a 2nd. Last edited by Direckshun; 01-03-2023 at 10:56 AM..

Urc Burry Veteran Join Date: Jan 2011 Casino cash: $9031048	This might sound crazy. And I’m not sure it isn’t. But man, TE Darnell Washington has me intrigued. Especially since he’s trending towards being a first rounder. But 6’7 270. And is a FREAK. An absolute eraser as a blocker, and has unlimited potential as a receiver. Andy has obviously been infatuated with multiple tight end sets the last couple years. Plus Kelce isn’t getting any younger. Still would rather go DT or another edge. But I honestly think I might go Washington over WR

Direckshun __ Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: Springpatch Casino cash: $4183447	DT Bryan Bresee, Clemson Bresee makes sense for the Chiefs under exactly one circumstance: if the Chiefs foresee being unable to retain Chris Jones. I think this is unlikely, but it's very on brand for the Chiefs to use draft picks to prepare for future departures. Bresee is a very active, one-gap shooting tackle who explodes out of his stance to menace backfields. He gives up some size to Jones (6'5", 300 lbs to Jones' 320) but he somehow has room on his frame to bulk up. He was the #1 recruit in the nation, and was largely thought to eventually end up as a Top 10 pick in 2023 -- until disaster struck and he tore his ACL. ACL's are not the death sentence that they once were, and his tape in 2022 has been very strong, though not the elite wrecking ball stuff we saw before his injury. The Combine and medicals will go a long way to determining if he's still Top 10 material. If he's not, the Chiefs have as good a medical staff as anyone in the league and they're uncharacteristically patient with player development. He makes some sense as a trade-up candidate or staying put at our pick in the 1st.
