and the last 3 years?

Fisher - Albert
Ford - Hali/Houston
Peters - Smith
Jones - Poe (Howard to NT)

Just coincidence that every year the position of our 1st pick has a guy leaving in FA the next year?

I think that's part of the reason why they use him so much. Not worried about long term wear and tear.

If that is true can you imagine what is going to happen this year?

ROFLROFL

They are going to rag Poe into the ground like teenager joyriding a corvette with 4 of his friends.

Yes, Chris Jones is a replacement pick. Period.

when Poe was hurt, howard took over the NT and was a stud. If Poe leaves Howard will move over then again leaving a spot at RDE open.

Chris Jones is a RDE in a 3-4 scheme.


Replacement


He might be a good,bad or mediocre replacement but he's a replacement pick. Just like Dorsey has done every year he's been in KC.



Homerism? You're a homer of your own theories. If Howard get's moved to NT and Jones plays DE then wouldn't Jones be more of a replacement for Howard at DE? Wasn't your previous theory that Howard was Poe's replacement when we signed him originally? And Russell is no way a replacement for Berry. What ever makes you feel smart though. You Duh Man!

That's actually a pretty fair point. Poe is a very good player but Howard was excellent at NT last year. But if you can get Poe at a decent price, I would still do it even if that means keeping 4 DL.

It actually does make sense that if Jones does well, it makes Poe expendable. Regardless of who replaces who, it gives the Chiefs an option to not fork over a huge contract to Poe and still end up okay.

Every draft pick is a replacement for someone.

Yeah it makes a lot of sense to keep stocking the cupboard before it goes empty.
