I dont' know that there's any way that Murray makes it to 32 with this LB'er class being what it is, but it's always possible.

1) Thanks for finally being one to have a sack and pick KC to win it all.
2) I drafted Darryl Williams on Madden for us and he’s damn good there. Obviously doesn’t mean shit but it’d be cool to see that come to fruition in a successful way. |

I like Kristian Fulton a lot. He'd make sense here.
It kinda sucks from a draft perspective being at the end of the rounds. You're just kind of picking off the bone a bit. Oh well, there are always good players around. |

And then he went back for his senior season and wrecked my best laid plans. Sadly, he's probably gonna be a bit too rich for our blood now. I like Fulton a ton. He's gonna be a real good player.

I looked at 4-5 mocks done in the past week, and he was going in the early second in all of them, so it seemed safe. That may change as teams look at FA and the draft and realize the scarcity of players with that 3-down skill set. Regardless, they should be able to address LB, CB, C, or LG in the draft.

I don't know if Shack has the strength to hold up as an NFL starter. He's also injury prone and has weak ankles.

How do you feel about Albert O? I’ve thought he was going to be an NFL bust for about 18 months, but reading mocks this week made me question myself a bit there. In the 4th/5th, if he really slid that far, the potential upside just seems like it’s worth the bust risk.

I don't know enough about the individual players but I like your positional emphasis.
One guy I do know a bit about is Biadasz and I think he'd be Mahomes' guy for ten years plus. If he's there at #32 (thank you very much) I'd just do it and not have to worry about center for the next decade. |

I think the same could be said for either of the top 2 C. I’d take Murray over him, I think, if both were available. LB with Murray’s skill sets are getting hard to find.

Yeah, I think you go with Murray just because of his skill set, but that kinda makes it hard for me to believe he'll actually be there. I just don't know that a guy like that sticks around that long. Look at Devin Bush.
If he's there, take him. If he's not, I'd say grab one of those C's and deal with the LB's later. IF there was a way to come out of the first 2 rounds with Fulton and the C from OU, I'd consider that a win. |

I was all about taking Hock last year because I think the potential of this team is nearly limitless with a true weapon at TE2 and Kelce isn't getting younger. Moreover, I think having the ability to spend 40-50% of the game in 12 personnel would significantly improve our run game as well. It's just damn hard to run from the shotgun if you can't set the edges (just too easy for the DE to defeat the angle) and having another TE in-line to help with that would help a lot. But man, the maturity issues and what sure looked to be a loss of explosion due to the knee injury make me take pause taking him in the first 2 days. The guy I saw at Mizzou last year WASN'T any better than Blake Bell. He didn't look as strong or as fast. He damn sure didn't look engaged. His blocking was indifferent and his hands were ass. I mean it's just impossible to know what you're working with at this point. And frankly, neither option is exceptional. Either he was jaking it in his platform season or injuries have sapped him of his high-end potential. Pick your poison...they both kinda suck. I don't think I was as high on him as most were even last season. He was probably 5th on my TE list when others were saying he should be a 1st rounder but/for the injuries. I didn't quite see the athleticism that others did even before the knee. It could be one of those situations that you don't realize happen until you do those CP Mock drafts - a guy sliding isn't because nobody likes him, it's because there's always another guy they like just a little bit more. And I could see that happening if I were in the Chiefs war room. I could literally see a situation where every round through round 5 I find myself saying "yeah, I like some things here...but I kinda like {player X}'s things more..." There are just some flags there I'm struggling with.

I get savaged for taking a C for the Chiefs in round 1 of the CP Mock last year but now EVERYBODY wants to get on board with the 1st round fatty. I see how it is...

Nothing more convincing than the eye test. Seeing how poor the interior ol play has been is proof positive.

The more I watch Murray, the less I like him. He doesn't attack the LOS well enough for me. He's like a more athletic Hitchens. I'm not sure I want to spend a 1st round pick on a guy like that.
I like the rest, but not so sure you're getting Akers at the end of the 3rd round. I think top half of the 3rd is his floor so you'd be moving up or taking him at the end of the 2nd. As for a TE, don't sleep on Brycen Hopkins. Kid is a stud. One really accurate source has him as late 3rd right now. |
