I also think i'd look more at measurables in terms of size than actually what they've done or do on the field in INDY.
It's just going to be tougher drafting late. |

I'm just hopeful one of the top ILB has a weed problem or something.

Mack Wilson and Devin White, I guess? Not sure there are any other real 1st round caliber prospects in this draft at ILB. Mack Wilson may not even need to 'drop' - he could just not quite get himself up that high.

Yeah, that's Devin White. And he's unquestionably the gold standard of ILBs in this class. KCCrow has been on him for awhile now and, IIRC, was willing to trade essentially our 1st and both 2nds to move up and get him.
I'd really like to see if Germaine Pratt slid to us in the 2nd but he may just be a slightly more polished DoD. The measureables on him are likely to be outstanding but I'm not sure he can play early down roles. And honestly, if he measures like I'd like him to, he won't be there in the late 2nd anyway.

I don't see the White kid falling to us, but if he did I'd imagine they'd run up there and take him. |

That's the kind of guy I want to fall out of the first round, get taken by the Chiefs and then get his shit together and play like a 1st round talent. |

I'll take OLine. I don't want our QB to be touched for the next 15-20 years. Eleven guys off the street can put up the same defensive #'s as the team we have now.

https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/show...2&postcount=15 I was on Fulton in November and really hoping he'd stay under the radar. Was of the mind we could snap him up at the back of the 2nd. I like that guy a lot. Sadly, these front offices have just gotten so thorough.

Probably a smart decision though; a healthy year puts him in the top 15, IMO. That kid has incredible talent.

If Dexter Lawrence falls because of Osterine, do you consider it?

Only if you think he can pressure well enough to play DT in a 3 man front with Nnadi and Jones. I just don't think you can draft him to play nose when you already have so many holes on D, you can't spend a 1st round pick on a "non hole" of NT.

We need to find out if we're replacing Sutton before we can really answer the question. Does this front office have the guys in place that can identify defensive players?
If not, we're better of doing what we do well, which may be to draft talented offensive guys. Use FA to get 2-3 key defensive pieces and hope to find a diamond or two in the later rounds defensively. |
