Comments on: Chiefs On The Clock: Who Will Be The Pick? http://arrowheadaddict.com/2009/04/25/chiefs-on-the-clock-who-will-be-the-pick/ A Kansas City Chiefs blog Sun, 21 Mar 2010 15:32:19 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: hmills110 http://arrowheadaddict.com/2009/04/25/chiefs-on-the-clock-who-will-be-the-pick/comment-page-1/#comment-5654 hmills110 Sun, 26 Apr 2009 16:56:56 +0000 http://arrowheadaddict.com/?p=3501#comment-5654 $6.5 million in cap money to Tony G if we kept him. That's a lot of money for a 2-14 team. Spin in these parts about the Denver RB pick was the importance of the RB to that system of offense, and maybe the current crop in Denver doesn't fit the mold. But yeah, I'd have to have a pretty good team already built before I threw a 2nd-rounder at RB. $6.5 million in cap money to Tony G if we kept him. That’s a lot of money for a 2-14 team.

Just not an exciting pick which I think we are used to in the first round. The place went wild when we picked Dorsey and Phat Albert last year and now "yawn" so yes I'm with you Woody its a smart pick. If we wanted a 3-4 end we got the best one in the draft.

Oakland....WOW! They took a projected FA in the first half of the second round. Denver....WOW! Moreno to go with Buckhalter,Jordan,Arringon,Pittman,Torain,etc. San Diego.....WOW! Larry English to go with Merriman and Shaun Phillips. If we had a bad pick, atleast it was better than these idiots! Did Al pick a relative or something in the second.

Dorsey and Jackson were dominant in college, each better for playing next to the other. Just the opposite of the melodrama I feared might take place with Monroe pushing Albert aside, just as he did in college. The reunion we have is clearly a happy one. So when I first heard of 4-3 under, I saw Jackson as the guy on the strong side. First thing out of Pioli's mouth was Jackson outside the tackle on the weak side. The reunion theory then puts Dorsey next to him playing the B gap outside the left guard. Dunno, Dr. Paine, but I like Mizzou’s point.

For that, I hate the pick. Not the player, but the pick. At 3, Crabtree, Curry, or trade would definetly have been getting the most out of our misfortunes. HOWEVER... Glenn Dorsey's huge 2007 college season?? Playing next to Tyson Jackson. Jackson had his best years as a soph-junior, next to Dorsey. They both seemed to work well together, and helped team up to win a national title. Its definetly a wait-and-see, but LSU West's future looks bright.

While some of you might argue that somewhere on the right side of the OL is that spot, I saw a stat the other day that said we gave up 8.5 yards per carry on stretch runs to the right. So just to clarify, not only does Turk McBride sack no one, he also cant keep a running back, fullback, mobile quarterback or even a fat kid on a scooter from getting around the edge on him. Jackson will immediately be a step up from that and while I think he very limited upside, unlike Crabtree, Monroe or even Orakpo, I think we can be fairly sure that Jackson will be a consistent starter as long as we need him to be.
