I was looking on Twitter today and saw the following from Eric Berry:
After that, Jarrad Page sent to Flowers:Quote:
@berry14 Had a great workout with @BFlowers24. You'd think he was a coach.
I'm sure the players don't have much, if any say, into who the organization drafts. Nevertheless it seems that half of our own secondary is on the Berry bandwagon as well.Quote:
JarradPage44 @BFlowers24 u get that knowledge from big bro. Lol. I hope we get em in KC
Sorry about the title, I meant to put [Berry] in the title, not [him].
Gee learn how to Word your threads I mean come on you never see me with any wording or spelling problems. :DQuote:

My thinking is O line and pass rush are more needed. If we get a good pass rush the secondary will look better. But Barry is good enough to at least think about getting him. I would not be to upset if we took him but I do agree we have bigger needs then secondary.Quote:

That would be the dream scenario. If we did this, we'd upgrade our LT, LG, C, and Safety postions as well as making our entire team better as whole. If we could do all this and land Cam Thomas at 2b, we'd have the makings of a very solid team.Quote:

From what I read this is a deep Oline, LB, draft so maybe these needs can be filled with starters in the 2nd round which would allow for the drafting of Berry in the 1st He is an impact player
Remember when we had great safeties...............its been a minute
Maybe Lewis and Ross:)
Just a thought and the kid is a difference maker
Yes I agree, somebody beside Hali has to get sacks, and most of his came in 1 gameQuote:

I'm thinking if Berry falls to us though, Okung is most likely off the board. Is there another O-lineman that fits the #5 spot that you can justify taking over Berry?Quote:

Agreed...That's why I don't see taking an OL if Okung is off the board and Berry isn't.Quote:

Which means Berry falls in our lap...
I think that's great I really want Berry in KC!Quote:

I am sure the kid is great, but he is going to deman top dollar and I do not get the impression that Pioli and Haley are looking for big names right now.
and sign Lilja. We would be in great shape.Quote:

With rookie contracts how they are nowdays, i feel that is unlikely.
I hate getting too excited about getting Berry because of potential let down, lol, but I can't help it. Seeing him, Flowers and Page in the secondary would add at least 3 wins to this season and make for some exciting football.
Hopefully one of the owners who loves to overpay players will trade. Jerry Jones maybe...I think they are one of the teams that cant sign FAs unless they lose one. Im sure hes got money burning a hole in his pocket during an uncapped year!!Quote:

If Sue is still there at 5, there will be takers because he won't get past Seattle.Quote:
