It is officially here.  Draft week has started and the rumors are shifting into 5th or even 6th gear.  Out of all the "draftniks" out there it seems most people around the league and even on this sight have a lot of respect for McShay and his work that is put into scouting these players.  Kiper seems to pick his top players and stick with them.  McShay isn't afraid to change who he thinks is the best player and where they may go.  This leads into the next question?

Out of all the players in the draft that the Chiefs may be rumored to take, in his eyes there is only one that he says doesn't have a flaw in his game.  Does McShay tend to be more accurate and less controversy based than Kiper.  I would tend to think so.

He was on Mike and Mike this morning and  beginning what seems to be 24/7 draft rounds, and said something that I hadn't heard quite yet.  When asked out of the top players, who scared him the most and a team may regret drafting.  The answer was something that will certainly cause some debate on this sight.  He seems to be the most talked about LT on here and seems to be considered the smartest pick by a large following on here.  Eugene Monroe, is the guy that scared him the most. 

We know he had injuries in college and that is a slight issue.  Something that McShay mentioned was that he has failed a handful of teams medical.  He didn't go into detail, but this is interesting because McShay doesn't just throw stuff out for effect.  He also metioned that he is compared to D'Brickshaw Ferguson who is more of a finesse player, but bigger.  Your left tackle needs to have some finesse for sure, but he needs to have a bit more than that.  The thing that stands out is the fact that this guy has failed some medicals before he has even been drafted.  If we are going to take a tackle with the third pick, we better hope somehow Smith falls to three.  That won't happen because it is likely that he will be drafted by the Rams, that is if the Lions get a deal done with Stafford.  If the Lions don't get that deal done, it sounds like they will be working to make a deal with Jason Smith.  Either way Smith is going top two, which leaves the supposed next best tackle for us at three.

I know, I know I am a huge Curry fan and hope the Chiefs draft him.  If we stick with the McShay theme here, we will.  He thinks that if Curry is on the board and the Chiefs somehow pass on him, it will be the first time that he picks up the phone to say they have made the biggest mistake in the draft.  According to his analysis, there isn't a flaw in his game.  I would agree based on his on the field performance and his lack of injured past. 

We can't afford to miss with this pick.  If we stay at three, we will take Curry if he is there.  If he isn't there, we will be scramlbing to get out of this spot, and that may be near impossible to do if we want to get what the #3 pick is worth.

We have all been debating and that is what makes this fun.  We think we know, but we won't know anything until saturday afternoon, and for that matter neither does McShay.  In the end, whoever the Chiefs end up taking, I have to trust and let the new regime do their thing and show us what they can do.
