Yeah....I'm taking Kizer and not looking back. Even if he takes two years to get on the field...you still have the 5th year option.

I don't think I would have been able to withstand the allure of getting Barnett there.

Mahomes makes the most sense of the non-Trubisky QBs for KC if we're going to take one in the 1st. I'd probably take him over my boy Watt if we had to choose, but if it's Barnett? I'm taking Barnett and hoping Davis Webb is still there in the 2nd.

I would have taken Barnett with that Chiefs pick. Hali and Zambo are done. Not sure Ford is worth what he'll get as a free agent.

Believe me, I was close to going that route. Very close.

I guess I'm just sold on Mahomes as this teams future starter so much that it was worth waiting on other positions that have more depth to take him. Plus I'm not as sold on the QBs that would be available in the second round, either.

If KC doesn't find a future front line starting QB in this draft, they would probably need to give Alex Smith another extension to avoid next years huge cap chunk. Drafting Mahomes now gives the team lots of flexibility.

Yeah, with Mahomes on the board, that's where I'd have gone.

I was speaking to the assertion that Houston taking Mahomes would've been the 'nightmare scenario' that necessitated a trade-back. I don't see it. Barnett would've been a great pick if Mahomes was gone and Kizer would've been plenty defensible.

This mock really hasn't had any 'huh' moments. Bolles to Houston really isn't that far-fetched, to be honest. And even if they did take Mahomes, look at the other picks and tell me that any of them are unlikely (or at the very least, that any of the players selected are sure not to be selected that early).

It tells me that there should still be some damn good talent sitting there for us, either one of the 4 QBs (3, IMO, as I'm still not a Watson guy) or a player like Barnett that has slid because of the QB picks.

Still an extremely deep draft for edge rushers. There's going to be a player taken in the 2nd round that hits double digit sacks in the next 3 years. It's up to the scouts to figure out who that will be.

And as for FA value - absolutely nothing will help our cap more than 4 years of a quarterback on a rookie wage scale. It's the ultimate get out of jail free card.

Barnett, Humphreys and Njoku were the 3 guys I really liked at that Denver pick. Barnett and Humphreys due to raw value and Njoku on potential.

Cleveland's next celebrity draft pick announcer is sure to cause a stir.

We're really debating on our pick. We have several great choices.

:hmmm: would be great if the guy I considered reaching for at 8 fell to #40

Might as well just get banned at this point.

Pioli can't seem to make up his mind. Just take a draft bust and get it over with, Scott. Or give the pick to me since I'm running New England and we'll end up with it anyway.

He's on the phone trying to offer the pick to KC for 1 of his former players.

My celebrity draft picker is starting to get antsy. Celebrities have tight schedules and the limo is waiting.

Good pick. He was on Cleveland's radar. Go ahead and assume that's a compliment.
