As the days go by and the more ESPN and NFL Network I watch, the less likely I think it will be that we will get Jake Long. I watched both stations again this morning and John Clayton from ESPN and a guy from NFL Network BOTH said they think the likelyhood of Miami taking him goes up everyday!! Even though I felt like he was going to be gone by the #5 pick, I was trying to hold out hope that he might still be there. With all of the exposure this kid is getting, I now feel like the chances are virtually ZERO that he will be there when we pick!!! SUCKS!!!:mob:

I've heard we might take Dorsey or Sedrick Ellis if they are available or if we don't trade the pick. Of course, there are the Clady rumors as well.

I'm not sold on Clady just yet. May be a bit of a reach IMO. If Dorsey checks out ok on his physical, I wouldn't be opposed to taking him.

the good thing (if you can call it that) about our O-line situation is that we need two guards instead of 2 tackles. The best guard in the draft isn't expected to come off the board until the 3rd round. If we could find a way to get another pick in the first 3 rounds, we would be sitting pretty. We could take a CB, OT, OT, OG. I think our second OLineman taken should be a "tweener" guy who could move down to guard or play OT if needed.

Also, I wouldn't be shocked if Tre Stallings pushed his way on to the starting line this year. I'm also interested in Herbert Taylor. He's kinda small for a tackle, but at 6'3, 295 he'd be a decent guard. He was also a 4 year starter at TCU. He started all 48 games of his college career and being that he graduated from TCU, he's got to have brains. TCU is a tough school to get into academically.

I'm not holding my breath on J long being there at #5 either. The closer the draft gets, the less optimistic I become. I think you have to plan on him being gone. If he's there, then you sprint to the podium.

While i think he'll be gone before the 5th pick, i think this year's draft is pretty interesting. Everything I've read says Jake Long is maybe the 7th or 8th best "athlete" in this year's draft and he's probably going to be a top 2 pick. Where as probably the best 2 "athletes" in DMac and Gholston will probably go after the 5th pick.

This draft has an interesting dynamic.

The best move for the Chiefs would be to draft Doresy or Ellis. Those are the two best DT's to come out in a long time, and they are the type of DT we need for our defense to work properly. We need our Warren Sapp, everything in the Tampa two revolves around our DT. We will likely not have a chance to draft another DT of that caliber again, and we have to do it while we can. Also Herm knows he needs a DT like that to have a great defense, and he would draft a great DT over an alright LT anyday. Doresy/Ellis>Long anyday.

I personally liked the offense of a couple years ago, but I know with Herm and the crew its going to be all about defense. We just added another small/fast LB, adding to us needing a DT... those LB's wont be able to do much and will kill us even more against the run without a good DT. Herm Edwards has drafted TWO offensive players ever, Dwayne Bowe and Santana Moss.

This is a deep deep year for Oline, CB's, and WR's. That increases the chances of Herm drafted a DT a lot more, and even if it weren't like that I still think he would, just because those are such rare DT's and we NEED one to effectivally run our defense. We could draft all the talent in the world for offense and it still wont be the best, just how Herm runs the game and likes to play.

Herm doesn't draft CB's in the first round, especially not a top 5. There is no possible way he could ever pass on a DT like Doresy or Ellis, mark my words. He has that eye for DB's and will wait until later rounds. I think Herms rain on our offense is over too, Gailey will run the show. Gailey has made the playoffs every year exept one as an OC, and he is a run run run control the clock coach like Herm wants. I think hes going to have the biggest impact on this team over anyone else we pick up.

Alabi and Jones alone are upgrades over Terry and Turley. Just getting rid of Weigmann alone will be huge, because he was to small to play center in our system. Niswanger and Taylor showed promise last year, and Svitek actually didn't look bad at RT, he sucks at LT though. Our line was way better when McIntosh was playing, and he was even hurt the whole year while he was playing. This is a deep deep year for Oline in the draft, arguably the deepest its been in 25 years. We can get starters outside of the first round, the 7th ranked guy isn't much worse than Long either. Great guards are usually drafted in rounds 2-4, and great centers are usually drafted in rounds 3-5. We are already upgraded, and we should be in a lot better shape after the draft even if we don't draft an Olinemen in the first two rounds. Chan Gailey's playcalling alone will make the offense look upgraded too, we won't be nearly as predictable.

We went 0-9 without LJ, him coming back will be huge too. He kept at least 8-10 players in the box at all times, and has yet to play with Croyles arm. I also think Darling is going to do a lot more than anyone expects... if he stays healthy hes good, he was just in a bad situation in Baltimore, but really started breaking out at the end of the year. He didn't play much at all and still put up better stats than Kennison, Parker, and Webb last year.

Weigmann, eventhough I agree he is too small for the system, was still probably the second best offensive lineman that we had last season. (Tosh wasn't bad.)

But by the third round, all of the "depth" of o-linemen in this draft will be gone. OTs will be well into the third-tier, and the top one-two OGs will likely be gone too. And the C position is a very weak class.

As for predicting that Gailey will be some huge impact, that is not going out on much of a limb. When you have the 31st ranked offense, there is virtually nowhere to go but up.

You are picking a very heavy favorite here.

I would say that Waters and McIntosh were our best two Olinemen last year. Olinemen being good by the 3rd round? Probably not, most years you can still get pretty good tackles then, and this is way way better than most years. You can always get starting Guards and Centers past the 3rd round too.

You sound pretty confident about what you are saying.

Are you feeling this is the year the Chiefs rebuild the O line?

They have been neglecting if for a while now (McIntosh included, he is a slow, fat turd!) and I doubt we will draft Clady if Long is gone.

Those draft picks for O linemen are gonna be worthless in the 2nd and 3rd rounds.

We are rebuilding the team as a whole, including Oline. Great starters don't have to be 1st round picks, especially picking as early as we do, our 2nd round pick will most likely have 1st round talent. We can draft a great OT in the 2nd and a great OG in the 3rd or 4th easy... thats just in most years, I'm not factoring in how much easyer it will be this year because its such a deep year.

Jake Long is media hype and wont be anything more than an average LT or maybe a great RT. Truth is that the OT that would fit our offense the best is Otah. I like Nicks who is faster, stronger, weighs more, and has longer arms but is a little more raw. Nicks also only gave up one sack and one QB pressure this year. The 7th ranked OT in this years draft isn't much worse than Long either... either way I don't think anyone we draft will unseat McIntosh thier rookie year, it would also be dumb because McIntosh is much much better at LT than he is RT.

In 2006 he signed with the Panthers. He was injured and only played 2 games and started one. Apparently, he isn't the same player he was before the injury. In 2007 he was 15/15. If he signs, he may not come in as the starter.

McIntosh is a very good pass blocker, but he sucks at run blocking... thats a big part of why hes a better LT. You want your LT to be able to protect the QB's blind side, meaning you want him to be a great pass blocker. You want your RT to be good a run blocking. Most rookies can't just step into the NFL and be good, they start at the right side the majority of the time then move to the left side.

McIntosh is a slow, fat turd.

I watched him TRY and block DE last year and wasn't effective in the least.

If it was because of the injury then he should not have been starting, because opponents were sending their fastest guys around the left side of the line!

Is he a center?

dude.... try typing his name in on NFL.com. :lol:

He plays center.

Trent Green blocks better with his head than McIntosh does with both hamhock legs, and doughboy gut...



yeah, once.

I like Trent guy, don't get the wrong impression.

He needs to get the hell out while the gettin' is good, though.

I would say that Waters and McIntosh were our best two Olinemen last year. Olinemen being good by the 3rd round? Probably not, most years you can still get pretty good tackles then, and this is way way better than most years. You can always get starting Guards and Centers past the 3rd round too.

Tosh was better than I expected, and better than what I had seen of him with Miami. But Weigmann was solid.


You see the problem is him hurt is still better than Svitek starting at LT... I'm looking forward to him being healthy next year, having a compitent OC, oh not to mention our Oline coach was terrible too (I don't even know why we hired him because he was horrible with hsi other teams too), and we won't have the old slow Huard playing QB curling up for an easy sack when he sees a defender.

Keep in mind that Svitek was also hampered with injuries when he got to play last season. Not to defend him, but if we are going to point out Toshs injury, then it is only fair.

And it seems that you, like most Chiefs fans, watched Damon Huard with a bias already settled in. Because I saw Damon standing tall in the pocket and taking the big hits like a man. Obviously he struggled, but then he was getting pounded by poor pass-protection, getting no help from an inneffective running game, had to battle poor play-calling, had lost his no.1 WR for most of the year, and had precious little time to work through progressions.

That's a pretty tall order.:D

In years past Wiegmann was very solid, should of been a pro bowler. He doesn't fit a mauling line at all, he wasn't good for us last year. Hes also benifited a lot from being in between Shields and Waters...

I'll admit at times Huard did what you said and made me say wow... but the majority of the time I seen him fall into the fietle position before he was touched.

Like most QBs in the league would have done behind our O line. Bring back Printers!! :D

I remember seeing actually scramble (if you can call him wobbling around and avoiding a sack scrambling) a couple of times.

He was pretty good at getting rid of the ball, most times, before he was sacked.

He was much better at it in '06. But then he had a very solid interior o-line, just had the outside rush to worry about.

In '07, it was coming from all over the place.

Huard has never been accused of being a bad QB!
