The Long, Slow, Arduous Bataan Death March To Drafting OL On May 8th
I keep looking at the talent right now, have been for about three months.
And I honestly think the talent is at its best at OL towards the end of the 1st round. Andy Reid needs to replace Albert, and there's no guarantee he has faith in Fisher. And Asamoah has almost certainly left, so we'll be in the hunt for a guard as well. This is a team looking to get away from Pioli's smaller, nimble OL, and towards Reid's larger, more powerful OL. Maybe we bring back Schwartz at guard. Maybe not. God. This franchise has conditioned me to prepare for the worst. ***UPDATE*** OL the Chiefs could potentially, inevitably draft at 23, depending on where things are in 5 months: OT Greg Robinson, Auburn OT Taylor Lewan, Michigan OT Cameron Erving, Florida State OT Antonio Richardson, Tennessee OT/G La'el Collins, LSU [not coming out this year] OT/G Zack Martin, Notre Dame OT Cyrus Kouandjio, Alabama OG Gabe Jackson, Mississippi State OG Cyril Richardson, Baylor OG David Yankey, Stanford OG Xavier Su'a-Filo, UCLA I will run mini-scouting reports on these guys over the next five months in this sad, miserable thread, plus any guys who also drift onto the radar. If there are any others you'd add, feel free to. Last edited by Direckshun; 03-24-2014 at 01:07 PM.. |

Trade one of our 6ths for Evan Mathis. Eagles put him on the trade block and since he's a 32 year old guard, that might be all he'll cost. All-pro level player who should be good for at least 2-3 more years.

Of course the Chiefs won't do it. He'll end up with a team that wants to win... |

A. He agrees to a new deal that has a lower cap hit in the 1st year. B. He's familiar with Andy and wants to reunite with him. But....I wouldn't give up more than 6th for him at this point. Shit...I'll even go up to a 5th if it's a guarantee that they won't take an offensive lineman in this draft. |

No way we do any scenario where we have fewer draft picks.

I'm so thoroughly jaded now, I honestly don't know how I'd react. I laughed through a lot of the playoff game, think for sure they'd find some way to **** it up. |

I'm picking for the Chiefs in a mock on another site I frequent.
Just completed a trade-up with the Dallas owner there. Chiefs get: No. 16 Cowboys get: 1st, 4th and 2nd 6th (200) from KC Xavier sua'Filo now guaranteed to be a Chief in that mock. I will also be mocking the best available OL or DL to the Chiefs with every pick in that draft.
