A bit of a play on what Direkshun put together the past couple of seasons. I'll reserve the round grading, especially as of now. I'll keep adding to this as I progress through.

I watch the Huskers a lot. I'm out on Fidone. Wisconsin was the only game the Huskers won down the stretch. Fidone only played 4 plays that game. Offense put up 44 points. From what I heard, grandma threw a shitfit, and Fidone played against Iowa. Huskers put up their normal 10 points and their normal loss. Week after week l wondered why this guy had so much hype. Crucial drops. Missed blocks. etc. Usually always involved in a big play in a negative way that may have won any one of a number of close losses.

Now he may turn out to be a future HOF'er. But I just didn't see it, nor did the people I chatted with during games. We all thought he was a 1st teamer on the All-Overhyped Team.

Fidone has the knees of a 80 year old man and moves laterally like Jason Dunn

Veach’s moves so far have the Chiefs in a nice spot going into the draft.

The Chiefs could justify drafting OL, DL, DB, WR, or RB without having a desperate need at any of those.

Sure, they need another CB and depth on the DL, but there isn’t a massive hole that needs to be filled with that first pick.

The Chiefs can really let the draft come to them without having to make a panic selection early.

The knees are a definite concern. The grandma booster club shit Coogs mentions I'm not too worried about in the pros.

I'm not either crow. But that's not really the point. They basically took him out of the lineup, and the team had their best offensive showing of the season. Two other guys were rotating through that position, and put up solid numbers.

Upon returning to Fidone the next week, it was like playing 10 on 11 again. And its the missed plays more than the made plays that standout on this guys resume. He missed a huge block on a critical play in the first half when the Huskers had a chance to put the game on ice. Instead the momentum shifted and the usual Huskers snatching defeat from the jaws of victory routine was underway.

Seen it too many times over the past several years. Fidone was involved in a lot of those game changing plays.

And I agree with your other two Huskers on your list. Robinson and Hill would be solid picks.

So, missed blocking assignments and drops are the key. Good to know, as I don't watch every single snap of every single game on every player, and I'm obviously not emotionally invested in any way. It's nice to get this info from you guys that do.

This is why I, historically, don't hype a lot of Ohio State players. I am either overly critical or overly zealous about them. This year, OSU is putting out a lot of legit NFL talent though so it's tough not to hype some of them just a bit. The DL guys are pretty damned legit, that I will say. A bit more concern for me with the secondary guys although I do really like Hancock. He seems to just be a playmaker.

For example, Harmon is my top DT but I don't think he's going to be there at 31. We might be able to trade up for him, but he could go much higher than people think (I wouldn't rule out #11 to SF).

I like Simmons, but if teams are confident in his knee, he's going a lot higher than we can reach. If they aren't so confident, he might be around when we pick in the 2nd round. There's just too much variability there.
