Well in fairness he likes Sapp who is very questionable in whether he can play standing over Hughes who everyone thinks will easily transition to that spot.

If Dorsey and Jackson PLAY UP TO THEIR DRAFT STATUS (and don't get me wrong, caps lock means I'm yelling at you), we have the best DL in football. I'm not drafting for need. I'd take the best NT in the Draft in the 1st round. I think that's exactly what the Chargers are doing -- which is why they cut their Pro Bowl nose in a nose-bankrupt atmosphere. The value is that I'm taking a 350-380 NT that dominated in the SEC over a TCU transition project. Every single time. |

I know you won the draft and all, but that's a bit silly. The way you're talking you would put him in the top 10 taken overall.

Also, Cody holds contain and frees up those around him, helping CREATE a pass-rush, by occupying blockers. In other words, the players we have, should become better, by being freed up. I don't think it's any coincedence that our Defense has been awful for over a decade and we haven't had that dominate DT, during that span. Time to change that by drafting Cody. Cement the lines and then bring on the specialists.

I think Hughes is a 1st rounder so I don't think you can really question this pick, Hughes is a better player than Cody is.

My point still stands. All things being equal...NT is more valuable than OLBer who's a liability agianst the run.

I dont like it, but it is what it is. We will likely value strength against the run and ability in coverage over pass rush ability. |

You're valuing the position over the player, a surefire way to blow a pick.

Cody is a 1st round prospect though with the rare attributes you simply don't get very often. But he's not a foolproof pick. I think the Top 10 should be reserved for foolproof picks with amazing upside. Cody is a 1st rounder. If he falls to the second, he has to be ours. We have no choice. |

I don't think the Chiefs will have any chance at Hughes anyhow, I think if the draft broke similar to this one, the Jets would take him.

Just because Scott Pioli thinks it's wise to use high picks on guys who's jobs is to take on blockers, doesn't mean I agree. I can tell you now, you're going to hate my picks - because I'm not looking to fill needs - I'm looking to get the best player available. This team has a shit-ton of needs, and they all can't be filled through the draft. |
