The Chiefs pick is coming up any minute now. Thoughts on our 3rd round acquisition?

Here are the current 3rd round picks:

1(65) Oakland Raiders -- Tank Tyler, DT(North Carolina State)
2(66) Detroit Lions -- Drew Stanton, QB(Michigan State)
3(67) Cleveland Browns -- Ikaika Alama-Francis, DE(Hawaii)
4(68) Tampa Bay Buccaneers -- Quinn Pitcock, DT(Ohio State)
5(69) Arizona Cardinals -- Justin Durant, LB(Hampton)
6(70) Denver Broncos -- Victor Abiamiri, DE(Notre Dame)
7(71) Miami Dolphins -- Ryan Harris, OT(Notre Dame)
8(72) Minnesota Vikings -- Matt Spaeth, TE(Minnesota)
9(73) Houston Texans -- Jason Hill, WR(WSU)
10(74) Buffalo Bills -- Quincy Black, OLB(New Mexico)
11(75) Atlanta Falcons -- Tony Hunt, RB(Penn St.)
12(76) San Francisco 49'ers -- Stewart Bradley, LB(Nebraska)
13(77) Pittsburgh Steelers -- Tarrell Brown, CB(Texas)
14(78) Green Bay Packers -- Jay Moore, DE(Nebraska)
15(79) Jacksonville Jaguars -- Sabby Piscitelli, S(Oregon State)
16(80) Tennesee Titans -- Kenny Irons, RB (Auburn)
17(81) New York Giants -- James Marten, OT (Boston College)
18(82) St. Louis Rams -- Brian Robison, DE (Texas)

Fred Bennett, a CB out of South Carolina, seems to be a good value pick for where we are.

pitcock has already been taken

and will be a bust in the nfl i think...

wat about brandon mebane? if he hasnt been taken yet, he HAS to be the pick, he will be a great pass-rushing dt for plenty of years...

I think Turk McBride

is still around. He's rated much higher. I have to confess though that I haven't done my research for the third round.

Draft Tek

has modified our needs and it is closer to reality. I would be pretty happy if things fell the way of their latest projection. Especially in the third round.

Marcus Thomas

is first round talent. He's a bit of a risk, but from what I have read, his "off the field issues" may not be as big of a deal as reported. We need a top caliber DT enough to take a risk, and if we miss, we can draft another next year.

I'm liking Marcus Thomas

more and more. His off the field issues don't really bother me. From what I've read, he handled it pretty well.

Seems like a classic case of a very talented player falling because of the hysteria surrounding character.

McBride is not a bad pick,

but he's undersized and more of a back-up utility defensive lineman like Wilkerson. I'm not sure that's what we're really lokking for to make our D-line dominant. Warren Sapp had a similar college game and reputation to Marcus Thomas. I think Herm could handle him.
