Would you be mad if the chiefs draft Dan Williams with the fifth overall pick in this draft?
Would you be mad if the chiefs draft Dan Williams with the fifth overall pick in this draft?
I would rather get an McClain, Okung, Bulaga, Berry, and even Joe Haden before getting Dan Williams.
I'm fine with Dan Williams. NT is one of, if not the most, critical position on the defense.
Maybe, I would just hate to see us draft a DL after doing the same thing for years.
If we take Dan Williams in at #5 overall, I'm serious that we better trade Dorsey, and get a first rounder for him.
If we traded him to the Texans for their #20 overall selection, then taking dan williams wouldn't hurt.
We might still get a player like Earl Thomas, Dez Bryant, Everson Griffen, or Mike Iupati.
If we take Dan Williams and keep dorsey, it just doesn't make good business sense. Having three top 5 picks on your defensive line? When you run a 3-4? In consecutive years?
Besides, the chance that Cody falls to us in the second is too good. If he isn't there, Cam Thomas will be.
Also, Dan Williams isn't a sure-fire prospect. There is talk that his play was vastly influenced by the overall talent on his defense.
Now, if we trade down to #9 with Buffalo, then I wouldn't be mad. I think it might be a solid pick. In the top ten, though, I still would prefer to draft a left tackle, so that Albert could move to his more natural position at guard.
Let's not forget that Waters could be done after this year.
No one, especially not the Texans (who are going to draft RB or CB in the 1st), are trading a 1st for Dorsey. We probably can't get a 2nd rounder for him.
We need the players on the DL. Does it really matter when we drafted them?
Dan Williams is a tank and will be a great NT in the NFL. Obviously though, only time will prove that.
I agree with this. If we can move down, we need to do so. And I'd prefer a LT over Williams in the 1st. He'll, I'd love to spend our 1st on Baluga at #9, pick up an additional couple picks (probably a 3rd and a 5th), and spend our 2a on Ducasse at RT.
We could then start Baluga at LT, Albert at LG, Waters at C, Lilja at RG, and Ducasse at RT. *That's* a line!
We would then pray Cam Thomas would be there at 2b (or maybe package the Buffalo 3rd with 2b to move up and get him).
But if the pick is Dan Williams, either at #5, #9, or elsewhere, it's still a good pick. We need a NT very badly, and Williams will be a great one.
I am definitely pulling for McClain if we have to choose at #5, but I see Williams as our leading candidate if we don't trade down.
