in 2010 Kansas City Chiefs Draft

PrintThe Kansas City Chiefs scouts are all over the country once again today and we're starting to hear some names they're looking at.
According to UniversalDraft.com, Georgia DT Kade Weston is garnering interest from the Chiefs and another 3-4 team, the Jets.
Weston has the nose tackle size at 6'5", 325 pounds. He's projected to go in the late rounds, if drafted at all.
The Chiefs are also in attendance at the Temple pro day. It's not a big football school so there are only a few big names. According to NFL Draft Bible, the Chiefs, Raiders and Eagles are among the teams in attendance.
DT Andre Neblett: He's 6'0", 297 pounds, which is similar to Glenn Dorsey. He's projected as a late round pick, if drafted at all.
ILB Alex Joseph: 6'1", 236 pound inside linebacker. Also expected to be a late round pick if drafted.
TE Steve Maneri: Big tight end at 6'6", 275 pounds. Appears to be mainly a blocking tight end that could be drafted late.
The Chiefs also attended the Fresno State and Virginia pro days, according to Scout.com.

weird
My long, drawn-out predictions that no one cares about, nor will bother to remember:
1. Todd Haley will still be the Chiefs Head Coach up to the 2011 season.
2. Clancy Pendergast won't make it to the 2010 season and was never intended to. Last-minute hire for a position that needed to be filled.
3. Todd Haley will not be the OC at the start of the 2010 season.
Im gald their covering all basis
Makes me think we will draft a unknown NT and in the later rounds.

I know a guy, actually was a trainer, who played at temple, Maybe Ill ask if he has an opinion
Jamaal "do it all" Charles
KC Will Trade Derrick Johnson
I think guys like this UGA DT are the types KC typically lands as UDFAs
Pioli shows them a lot of attention prior to the draft, gets the guys excited about how they could fit into the picture in KC, and the result is that they end up much more likely to listen to offers of UDFA workout contracts once the draft is over.
Boycott Facebook. It's lame. Inform your real friends that you're going to communicate with them like a normal human being, and then delete your account. Seriously.

yup, just good business

Chiefs are supposed to attend the Missouri State Pro day tomorrow. Supposedly have shown some interest in MO State TE Clay Harbour.
Clay Harbor had the most bench presses at the combine
i would like to see them take a long look at him, just because im from the area!
Regardless of who the Chiefs pick at #5 overall, Whitlock will call it the worst pick in the history of the Chiefs. Heres to hoping that #5 pick runs Whitlock out of town.....
You don't find players with Westons size too often anymore
he and Maneri are guys I hope we land as “Mr. Irrelevant” though it would be cool if Weston was drafted with that pick and he and Succop went to the Pro Bowl
The newest addition to the Eric Berry fanclub
Anthony McCoy, USC?
* KC now has the best coaching staff in the league
* 9-7 is a real possibility in 2010 IF the Chiefs get 4 new starters
* KC will NOT draft a LT in the first round, and the draft WILL be heavy on defense
Maybe Dorin Dickerson from Pitt
Guy is awesome and now is Mayocks 3rd best TE…I have been pushing for this guy since the combine. He is really just a big WR with amazing speed and measurables. Will not get past 2nd rd. Some team will take him and convert to a WR, 43" verticle! 4.4 40!
Dorin Dickerson, Pittsburgh
Height: 6-1. Weight: 226.
Projected 40 Time: 4.55.
Combine 40 Time: 4.40.
Benchx225: 24. Vertical: 43. Arm: 34.
