Mock (4/25) - Page 3

Direckshun · 04-25-2017, 02:32 PM

My best guess as to how the Chiefs actually draft in a couple days.

Assumptions:

1. GM John Dorsey and HC Andy Reid are extended for four years. Alex Smith is kept on for at least another year.

2. The Chiefs decline OLB Dee Ford's fifth year contract option.

3. The Chiefs extend CB Terrance Mitchell over the course of the 2017 season.

3. The Chiefs sign:

1.27. OLB Takkarist McKinley, UCLA

Yeah. Not what I want the Chiefs to do. But in my opinion, seems the most likely.

I want them to trade up for Watson, but that's not Dorsey's game, is it? He builds for the long-term, to make the team as good as he can across the board for as long as he can. The best way to do that is to not trade away a ton of picks in a talent-rich draft. I also want him to select Mahomes if they stay put, but Mahomes isn't a great fit for the Andy Reid system, and as much as I like him, the Red Raider offensive system does spook me some.

There are some pretty good talents across the board here, but unfortunately they're not at DL or ILB, where the Chiefs could use the most help. Instead, they'll settle for a really good OLB in McKinley. The Chiefs are cash-strapped heading into 2018 and Ford hasn't given us a consistently good passrush. He's upgraded from non-factor to bursts of production. Hopefully he can translate that into more consistency. McKinley is the insurance if he doesn't. (I predict McKinley is our starting LOLB in 2018.)

2.59. QB Nathan Peterman, Pittsburgh

The more and more I watch this guy, the more I think the Chiefs love this guy. He seems to fit the Alex Smith mold, though he is more comfortable pushing the ball downfield. This is a minor reach for Peterman, who I think is more of a 3rd round talent, but the Chiefs need a QB desperately to groom and this doesn't preclude them from going early again on a QB in 2018 if they want.

3.97. NT Jaleel Johnson, Iowa

Chiefs need to add more beef up front. Right now they have solid depth options at both DE positions -- Nunez-Roches and Jenkins have both proven themselves in limited starting time. But they still have no depth behind Logan at NT, after losing their best two NTs from 2016, in Howard and Poe.

3.104. ILB Anthony Walker Jr., Northwestern

Gotta build that front seven, folks.

I like Walker as a prospect a lot more than I like his tape. He sports very good potential in pass coverage and in run support, though his tape has lapses all over the place in both. I think he has outstanding instincts, and seems to have plus-athleticism for the position. I think where he lacks is his fundamentals, and this coaching staff can make strides on that front with him.

4.132. DE Eddie Vanderdoes, UCLA

This seems like a Dorsey player -- tons and tons and tons of athleticism. It is ridiculous, the tools this guy has to work with. With Britt Reid coaching up DL, there's no reason why they can't nab a potential starting DL in the midrounds.

5.170. TE George Kittle, Iowa

The Chiefs love TEs that can catch the ball in the flat, turn the corner and burst upfield. The Chiefs also need to be deeper at the TE position than they are -- as often as they play 3TEs, they need to be at least four deep.

5.180. RB De'Angelo Henderson, Coastal Carolina

You guys gotta get a load of this dude, if you haven't already. This is an extremely slippery running back who boasts great short-distance burst and defenders never seem to land a clean hit on. I think he could be an outstanding receiver out of the backfield, and provide a great 10 snaps a game in relief. I really want to see what this coaching staff can get out of this guy.

6.216. RB Joe Williams, Utah

I really loved what this guy brought as a player since the Combine. He looked outstanding in the drills which brought me to his tape. Williams is such a smart, reliable playmaker that I think it makes sense for the Chiefs to double-dip here and fatten up their RB stable a bit.

6.218. ILB Dylan Cole, Missouri State

Sticking with the local kid -- I really do think he could be an interesting reserve option going forward. He clearly has an uphill battle to make the roster, however.

7.245. OT Taylor Gadbois, Southeastern Louisiana

Dorsey almost always picks an obscure dude here, so I'll just select someone I like that I don't think will get drafted. Gadbois would certainly be a practice squad candidate.

The other miserable twats are elated to have me on their side these days.

Hehehe, indeed. I do think you are very smart.

Sad to see you finally broken, but I totally understand it. I'll probably be there in one more season, lol.

I figured you'd go full on Pulse nightclub after the Chiefs dump Alex.

DJ wasn't exactly a ray of sunshine before this offseason. He's pragmatic. When something works, then it's good. When it doesn't work, it's bad.

If you're upset that DJ is now "broken," it's because something he was patient about because it looked like a decent plan on paper is clearly NOT working.

Any ideas what that could be?

I don't know what that is, and don't want to.

Last year for the Alex Smith marriage. He either steps it up, or I am done with him. I still want the Chiefs to find... find.. not horribly reach.. for their QBotF.

You're always on about people who apparently think they know more than Reid or Dorsey about QBs.

What if we trade up for Mahomes? Are we reaching on a QB? You think we are, but Reid and Dorsey wouldn't think so

I will cringe... but maybe a day.. maybe a week goes by... and I will lean towards them knowing more than I.. and accept him.. and hope for the best.

"Being right" on an internet forum is running rampant.. it's silly kid-stuff that people with small penii are into. It doesn't interest me. I'm just a casual fan that wants the team I watch to do well. All the other shit is internet posturing... and that's pathetic.

YOLO

You're a casual fan.....of a ****ing QB.....not a team.

Black Bob · 04-26-2017, 03:40 PM

You must have missed my Dorsey and the SEC thread.... Not bad but, not very realistic IMO.

Whatever you need to believe for yourself, chump.

We'll see about that in a year or two.

Yeah....I'm sure you'll "stick around" just so you can claim that you're a fan of the team. You'll eventually fade into the darkness and won't return.
