Hypothetical: Trading up for Geno. - Page 2

Simple one here, if the Chiefs resign Albert then Star is the choice if not then Uncle Luke would be the pick.

You take Geno and then take David Amerson with your second rounder. Same guy as Milliner and was the better player at CB in 2011. He gambled a bit more in 2012, but Amerson has all the tools to be elite.

There are no truly elite players in this draft. Sort of interesting. There isn't a Von Miller or a Suh or a Long yet everyone still wants us to magically trade down so we can take a second rate QB. Why can't the Chiefs have a QB?

I think this is a pretty darn good draft from a depth and talent perspective, and I think that there are some high level players.

IMO, Geno Smith is as good a prospect at the QB position as anybody that's come out the past ten years. His numbers/production/accuracy at the college level are absolutely ridiculous. He's prototype size, damn near perfect delivery, very good arm, experienced, etc. He's an easy #1 pick in the draft.

Think about the last draft when we took Dontari Poe at #11. There's two guys in this draft that are markedly better than him in Starlite Lotulelei and John Hankins. There's four cornerbacks in Milliner, Banks, Rhodes and Amerson who have incredibly high ceilings. A bunch of stud rush ends in Werner, Jones, Mingo, Montgomery, Moore, Jordan, Okafor, Ansah, etc. A couple of elite level guards in Warmack and Cooper. Some really nice ILB prospects in Ogletree, Minter, Te'o, Bostic, Johnson. A lot of really good looking receivers. The QB's are deep and experienced.

The only position that isn't really talented and deep is the offensive tackles.

The main problem is that you are coming off a class that featured the most hyped prospect in years in Luck and a lot of the rookie QB's did really well this past year.

I personally think it's a very good draft and the Chiefs should be able to get three immediate starters at the QB, CB and ILB positions.

I think you have a bunch of B+ prospects at every position. First round talents about 45 players deep or so I would estimate, but no infallible "can't miss" guys.

If the QBs have the possibility of rising after the combine(which most assume a given). Then there is the possibility of someone else other than QB rising. That some other team falls in love with. So trading down is the option for me, just not very far.

Geno doesn't make it past the Raiders. This is a silly post.

In this world, the Raiders have traded for Alex Smith and extended Carson Palmer and signed Matt Moore to a three year deal.

If the league assigns me Geno at #15 and takes away my 2nd and moves my 4th down I'm taking Wilson at #1, so I don't know if I should have voted for "other" or "F U"
