Late night bullshit: drafting the Chiefs in the CP Mock.

[Direckshun]

Thanks to the ChiefsPlanet Mock gods (I.e. Pesty), I'm representing the Chiefs in this year's Mock.

I'm reasoning out my picks as much as time allows when my turn pops up, and I'll dump my reasoning for each pick in here for your ridicule and/or hero worship.

The mock doesn't allow for compensatory picks, but I'll make ersatz selections in this thread, too.

The OP will be updated as the mock goes on.

1. OL Cameron Erving, Florida State
2. WR Devin Smith, Ohio State
3. WR Justin Hardy, East Carolina
3. OLB Hau'oli Kikaha, Washington
4. ILB Taiwan Jones, Michigan State

Of course everybody is forgetting that Erving can play left tackle at a high level as well, as long with every position on the line.

So Direk created a thread in the main forum for him to repost his posts from the draft thread? What's the intent? To obtain more criticism?

And speaking of a "reach": Tamba Hali was "reach" in 2006 and 15 or 20 people on Chiefsplanet said that he could have been had 10 picks later.

it's funny, I was the one in charge of the tamba hali CP DRAFT pick... suck it, direkshun's mom, and lick my taint.

Jordan Phillips was the correct pick.. But that didn't happen.


Because Direckshun.

Although I probably wouldn't have used SNR's particular words to describe Mr Erving, I fear he may be correct. Not sure I'd use #18 to draft a guy who's essentially a jack-of-all-trades for the OL. I get Direkshun's reasoning, but I think I'd rather take a guy who has mastered a position.

I was kind of in the Maxx Williams camp, but I heard that in his interviews, he was pretty much a me, me, me guy. Not sure we need a diva at TE. BUT, I am intrigued that he was dominant in the Big 10 as a redshirt sophomore. Has great hands and they get better in the red zone. Lots of upside.....and probably a good fit for our QB.

I'd also strongly consider a CB here; just not sure which one yet. Cannot have too many good CBs.

Probably go WR in the 2nd round.

Wasn't it Mecca that said it was a bad pick and that he could have been had 10 picks later?

I remember me an Htismaque rolling our eyes. I wish my rep when that far back.

In the past, guys drafting for the Chiefs in the CP mock have drafted Dwayne Jarrett, Jimmy Clausen, and Geno Smith in the first.

I'm drafting to help the Chiefs the most I can in the short- and long-term. Not win popularity contests.

I think Peat, Collins, and maybe Melvin Gordon could have helped this team more than Erving, maybe . But I think Erving, now and potentially into the future, improves our team the most.

I simply disagree. I doubt that any of those players, with the possible exception of Peat and Collins, provide the Chiefs more value than Erving at either C or RT.

To bullshit some conversation in the middle of the night.

Right.

And this OL is a mystery, right now.

Of course you do.

No.

The offensive line is a mystery to YOU, not Andy Reid or John Dorsey. You'll never, ever, EVER be in the ballpark if you don't think like the people that are actually making the selections. Dorsey has now gone on record saying that Kush is his guy. He'll bring in competition, but there's not a chance in hell he does it in Round One.

I don't believe that you've actually seen an NFL game.
