Remaining team needs

Saccopoo · 05-08-2014, 11:12 PM

Pass rusher from the OLB spot was a definite need.

It has been filled with the selection of Dee Ford, who's measurables compare very favorably to Justin Houston. (He's also well thought of in terms of effort, drive and dedication to the game.) Pretty good pick all things considered as I felt that the pure 34 OLB pass rush specialists in the draft fell off considerably after Ford. (And I liked him a lot better than Barr.)

Remaining team needs:

WR
OG
OT
ILB

I'd like to see someone like offensive linemen Billy Turner or Cyril Richardson with their third round pick.

OldSchool · 05-08-2014, 11:22 PM

Yup. Or give me whoever the top WR is available in the 3rd.

RunKC · 05-08-2014, 11:36 PM

Look at the DL we play this year.

I think it's gonna be an OL honestly. And if you think DB isn't going to be a pick in the next few picks you're crazy. We were all over them all spring.

Jarvis Landry in the 3rd would be perfect and make me like the Ford pick even more.

I'm telling you, KC's tight end situation is twice the problem the lack of WRs currently is.

**the Talking Can** · 05-09-2014, 07:00 AM

the question is: where is the value in round 3?

i don't want us drafting for need...we have several needs

i pulled this list of WRs...which of these guys would you take in the 3rd? Or do think other positions provide better value?

Quote:

68 *Jarvis Landry WR 12 LSU Jr 6-0 205 2-3
77 *Bruce Ellington WR 13 South Carolina rJr 5-9 197 2-3
80 *Martavis Bryant WR 14 Clemson Jr 6-4 211 2-3
87 *Paul Richardson WR 15 Colorado rJr 6-0 175 3
93 Kevin Norwood WR 16 Alabama rSr 6-2 198 3
100 Dri Archer WR 17 Kent State rSr 5-8 173 3
110 Jared Abbrederis WR 18 Wisconsin rSr 6-1 195 3-4

Terrence Brooks

Seriously, how could FS not be #1 on this list?

ForeverChiefs58 · 05-09-2014, 07:20 AM

Btw, this is Sanders Commings draft profile from last year:

He’s had his injury issues, missing five games of his senior year in high school with a cracked fibula and then redshirting the 2008 season with a shoulder injury. But he managed to stay healthy for all 13 games the following year, intercepting a pass and recording three of his season total of 12 tackles in the Independence Bowl against Texas A&M. Commings started nine of 12 games as a sophomore, picking off three passes and making 36 tackles. He became a full-time starter in 2011, beginning all 14 games, intercepting just one pass but breaking up 12 others. Commings missed the first two games of his senior season due to suspension, that resulted from a domestic violence charge. On the season, Commings intercepted three passes, and deflected two more.

ANALYSIS

STRENGTHS It’s tough for teams to find corners of Commings’ size and agility to play with ever-growing NFL receivers on the outside. And his outfielder hands are easily seen with his ability to snatch throws within his frame or extend his long arms high or wide to deflect away passes coming towards his man. Commings has a hulking frame, and succeeds in being physical with wide receivers, and pressing them at the line. Productive special teams player.

WEAKNESSES His footwork and quickness aren’t elite – receivers too often get inside position on him and can race by when he pauses at the top of the route. His ability to create turnovers and awareness in zone coverage need to be improved, as well. He also raised some character red flags when he was arrested in January 2012 for allegedly assaulting his girlfriend in public. He was suspended for the team’s first two games this fall, and agreed to drug and alcohol testing and anger management counseling.

NFL COMPARISON Brandon Browner

BOTTOM LINE A cornerback with the build of a starting outside receiver (and the athleticism to have been a late-round MLB draft pick as an outfielder) will certainly generate interest among NFL scouts. As expected given his size, Commings can be physical and bully wide receivers. However, his footwork and quickness aren't ideal for a corner, so there is a potential conversion to safety in his future.

TambaBerry · 05-09-2014, 07:27 AM

Ya, I want a safety or corner, can't believe we passed on dennard.

I said a long time ago that if the Chiefs don't get their WR in round 1 then I didn't want to see them draft WR until maybe the 5th and get Janis.

I'd love Brooks, but I seriously doubt he will be there. Dezmen Southward is a more likely option set FS. Also, I think we stick with Abdullah and Commings at free and draft another box guy.

Take Landry in a heartbeat. Guy is a short pass catching machine.
