    Default Chiefs Pick BJ Raji

    So I was wondering what anyone else thought of BJ Raji with our 3rd pick. A lot of draft "gurus" have him going to Seattle at number four after his great showing at the Senior Bowl. He apparently made all the other lineman except for Alex Mack look like little girls.

    If he lives up to his hype, he could be a great NT in a 3-4. If we really wanted to go to a 3-4, he would be a great start. Also, I think he would be great in a 4-3 because he would eat up a lot of space.

    I like the idea, but I dont think any D-lineman can come in and be effective in their first two years. Dorsey was supposed to be the same, but we know how that worked out.

    I still think OT or LB personally, but I wonder what others think.

    I don't know how well Dorsey worked out yet. I still don't know how well Tank Tyler worked out.

    But, taking another DT would make us into The Lions. We have taken alot of DTs early, over the past six or seven drafts.

    Also, I think if we get a DE, then we will have significantly upgraded the DT positions already.

    I'll just pretend you never wrote that... unless you meant Paul Kruger in the 3rd round... but definitely not the 3rd pick in the draft...which happen to belong to the Chiefs!!!

    I agree w/ you guys. Give Dorsey and Tank a few more years because drafting 3 DT's in the top 10 in 7 years is pretty ridiculous. Especially how Ryan Sims turned out

    iF the Chiefs move to a 3-4, I think it becomes likely that the Chiefs would draft Raji. If they stick with a 4-3, it becomes very unlikely IMO.

    Yup, the NFL is a whole other animal.

    I think it is more likely that the Chiefs will draft Crabtree before another DT.

    No more early DT, I do agree on a DE.

    If we go to a 3-4, I don't see that we have much of a choice. If we stay in a 4-3, I don't think Raji should be our priority.

    EDIT: or what Coach said
