Printkirkismerff with the pick...
Strangely enough, we Chiefs fans have been hearing about the Cardinals over the last year.
Right?!
It hasn't been a good off-season so far for our friends in the desert. They've seen playoff wins, Superbowl appearances, how did they even get to those points?
KURT WARNER.
Now he is gone, and do the Cardinals believe that Matt Leinart can continue their rein of success? If he has any chance to be successful he will need a long term solution at left tackle to protect his blindside, a solution they thought the found in Leonard Davis or Levi Brown.
That hasn't been the case. Leinart will need time to develop and it sure would be hard if he had two seconds to look down the field before being smacked. The reason this hasn't been a huge issue yet is because the had a future HOF taking snaps for the past few years.They will give Matt a shot so QB can be crossed off the list, and I don't think that they will find any tackle good enough to take here.Moving on, obviously Boldin will be missed but the Cards are pretty well set at wide-outs, so if they draft any help for Leinart it will be in the later rounds.
Karlos Dansby and Antrel Rolle are HUGE losses for this defense, but as much as they will miss them, the Cardinals have to address that gaping whole at NT.
With the 26th pick in the 2010 Arrowhead Pride Mock Draft, the Arizona Cardinals select...Mt...errr...Terrence Cody, Nose tackle, Alabama.
I personally wouldn't mind seeing him falling to us at the top of the 2nd round but I never seem to get what i want come Draft Day :( that aside, I believe that this will be a solid choice for the Cards. Cody is 6'5 360 lbs give or take a few pounds. But man can this kid take up blocks! how else do you think McClain was free to wreck havoc on opposing teams all season? Sure the could have gone in different directions like OLB Jerry Hughes out of TCU(whom I also wouldn't mind falling to us),but the Cardinals would be foolish not to take such a force at such a huge need .
Remember that "whole" I was talking about earlier? I would pay money to see a gut in this draft that could fill it better than Mt. Cody!

I'm nbot sure he fits,...
as in I’m not sure he fits in their stadium
...And as the roar of 80,000 red-clad great plains warriors fills the hallowed halls of Arrowhead, it will strike fear into the hearts of lesser men. For on that field, individual men toil for something greater than individual honors. They toil as brothers-in-arms, as 53 spirits striving towards a single purpose and driven by a single goal: The glory that comes with vanquishing your foes. They will achieve their birthright, they will be champions.

LMAO!!!
Forgot all about that. Guess the only stadium that a mountain could fit in is the Cowboys’ stadium. rec’d
in that case only the cowboys would be able to draft him
Seriously mates, when have I ever been sarcastic?
Oh and in case you were wondering, that hug offer is still there when you are ready UC :p
Solid pick, he's a good fit for the Cards
Plus this means the Chargers can’t lay their grubby little hands on him.

solid but they'll probably take Mays or spoon if he is avalible.
still a good pick/fit
Tough times never last, but tough people do.
Mays?
They have Adrian Wilson. He is almost the exact same players as Mays.

I don't see it.
I would be shocked if they made this pick.
* 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
I don't either
Me too.

OH, and Leinart's "blind side" is the RT position..
he’s a southpaw

Good point Stag
that is why they moved Levi Brown on the right side early in his career.

so, if the Cards need RT so much, why Cody?
ok with me, but … makes no sense if protecting Leinart is an issue

Funny
This is the same pick for the Cardinals in the SB Nation mock draft. My comments on it were that it was a good pick b/c guys like Cody don’t come around too often…plus it gives the Cards some leverage with Darnell Dockett looking for an extension.
yeah, I saw them at the same time...

My mistake
I forgot that his blindside is the RT, but I stand by what I said. I didn’t see any tackles worth reaching for and so took Cody to fill another big need that the cards have. They might take a tackle later, but not here.

Well, my man crush is crushed by a Cardinal.

Oh, 1985 was a sweet year :)

good pick
He’s always open. He catches a lot of balls. He’s un-guardable, no matter how old he is
Wow...
Some real surprises in this draft’s first round. Still a lot of big time players available.
The Chiefs will take a defensive player with 3 out of their first 4 picks in 2010
