Plus I personally would rather have good DE's and iffy corners over good corners and iffy DE's. Even then, Herm has a pretty good track record of drafting DB's in the later rounds, I'd bet there are guys down the road here that he's got an eye on. |

You post sacks, tackles, and tackles for loss. And then you IGNORE the last 2 stats and focus solely on sacks. |

that makes some sense I guess. Just think we could've had him 10 picks later, and even if we couldn't have, we would've gotten someone of similar talent to fill a need.

And who exactly was out there who had "similar talent" that we could have gotten 10 picks later? I can't think of anybody and the draft board certainly doesn't show anybody who is comparable to Hali at that point in the draft or slightly later. Sure...trade down when you don't have a guy at your pick that you feel strongly about. That's a wise move. However, KC felt strongly about Hali. Moving down and missing on him, especially considering the extreme need at DE would have most likely been a monumental error. The draft gods don't go out of their way to favor KC in the best of times. Last year was an exception. We got a guy who was an All-American DE, and a guy who disrupted offenses on a regular basis. I think he is as close to a sure thing as we could have gotten all things considered. If I'm right, nobody is going to be concerned about where we drafted him...right? |

An All-American in both talent and ethic. It's somebody the Chiefs have been lacking in their first day picks for a while now. |
