kcchief4lif 910 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 With the Kansas City Chiefs’ 2016 season officially coming to an end Sunday night after their 18-16 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in the divisional round of the AFC playoffs, the draft positions for the Chiefs and the other three teams that lost in the divisional round are now officially set. The Chiefs will have the 27th overall selection in the first round of this year’s draft, which will take place April 27-29 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Houston Texans (No. 25), Seattle Seahawks (No. 26) and Dallas Cowboys (No. 28) all had their draft positions solidified after this past weekend’s games as well. The Chiefs will head into this offseason preparing for free agency and the draft coming off a 12-4 season that saw them win their first AFC West championship since 2010. Of the 53 players on the active roster at the conclusion of this season, 21 of them were drafted by general manager John Dorsey and his staff, including three of the team’s four All-Pros this season (Travis Kelce-2013, Marcus Peters-2015 and Tyreek Hill-2016). Here’s a look at all of the 27th overall picks since 1967: The formatting sucked so click the link to see the list. Interesting list. http://www.chiefs.com/news/article-2/2017-NFL-Draft-Chiefs-Have-the-27th-Overall-Pick/32f5ad13-feeb-44b3-a944-db2428939320?sf51398197=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DefensiveMan 758 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Charles Harris, Zach Cunningham, or Reuben Foster. I think we're solid on the D-Line once Bailey and Howard return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eraser 722 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Rae Carruth was a killer WR. I would take Deandre Hopkins. There are lots of talented guys who fall that low. The catch is to find them. I have more confidence in Dorsey than I did with either Pioli or Peterson (post Schottenheimer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eraser 722 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Charles Harris, Zach Cunningham, or Reuben Foster. I think we're solid on the D-Line once Bailey and Howard return. Harris should be a decent 3-4 OLB at the next level. Cunningham will likely go much earlier, but he may be the best ILB in the draft. Reuben Foster is the only possible exception. Both will go in the top 15 of the draft. I would like to trade out of 27 with Cleveland. Our 27 and 59 for their 33, 52, and 188. #33 TE Bucky Hodges #52 ILB Anthony Walker, Jr. (trade up with Arizona to 43 for our 52 plus Zach Fulton, and Demarcus Robinson) plus their 156 #91 OG Nico Siragusa #104 SILB Ryan Anderson #131 OG Forest Lamp #156 QB Brady Gustafson #172 LB Jalen Reeves-Maybin #188 LB Vince Biegel #217 NT DeAngelo Brown #219 WR Ricky Seals-Jones #248 RB DeAngelo Henderson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NChiefsCorner 496 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 It doesn't do much good to trade down to pick up a 3rd round pick if your going to cut that pick before the season starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtimer 8,686 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 1 Million dollar question. Will Dorsey sign an extension?? He is up as of now. just a gut feeling but I think he's on his way to GB. Ballard I heard took the Red Eye to SF for an interview..if the Chiefs lose both the downward spiral is inevitable IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has roots in this area (wife's side), and he is at the cusp of building something very substantial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xen 1,010,220 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Pay Dorsey whatever he wants. Why is he so expensive? Because he's fucking worth it. It's so easy when it's not my money. Pay the man!!! I have a lot of faith that Dorsey can find and groom the next ballard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clark's success with the Chiefs? Maybe in his wallet but not on the field. We have one wild card win over Brian Hoyer since 1728. As far as business success I'm sure he does well. Football? He hasn't even sniffed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he learned from his mistake the first time and went to a new power structure that's now becoming more and more popular. Far as I know Clark doesn't actually play the game. He lets his football guys do their job. I don't want a Jerry Jones in charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
