Around SBN: Ryder Hesjedal Wins Giro d'Italia

9. Kansas City Chiefs: Tyler Bray, QB, Tennessee
2012 NFL Mock Draft selection: Riley Reiff, OT

Kansas City lands a long-term starter.

In 2011, the 6-foot-6, 210-pound sophomore Bray completed 59 percent of his passes for 1,983 yards with 17 touchdowns and six interceptions. He had a hand/thumb injury that caused him to miss five games and hurt him down the stretch. Bray has all the physical tools to be a first-round quarterback, and before the hand injury, made progress to improve his accuracy compared to his freshman season.

We get to pick 9th overall in 2013 and get a sub 60% comp rate QB with an injury history, unless we get Landry Jones instead. C'mon Man

The only thing interesting about that is the Raiders drafting number one overall.

You always pass.

Ensure helps make passing easy.

Bray is the closest thing to Brady I've seen.

I was once fired from a job two days after I waited on Matt Cassel and his wife Lauren Killian. Totally my AP moment to remember. Unfortunately also one of my stupidest moments.

I'll trade back and take Wilson thanks.

Let’s be honest though 9th? If we’re 9th then something went horribly wrong and the Chargers 25th? Also its more then likely that those four QBs will go in the top 10 and that the Raiders will find a way to trade that first round pick for a bag of peanuts and an aging WR or something stupid before then,

Can this organization really wait to find "the guy"?

Especially with the talented surrounding cast both sides of the ball features, assuming both Carr and Bowe are back.

This team is built to win soon, I don’t know if some guys, especially on the offensive side of the ball can afford to wait 3-5 years.

Either Cassel is the guy and proves it in 2012, or some serious construction is done in 2013, some that might be unpopular.

Oh, man. It's my mom. She looks pissed.

Landry Jones is not a real QB prospect.

It is a good thing he stayed in school, there was no way he was ready.

So were hundreds of other QBs who have washed out

Im pretty sure Bradford came out early too, at the very least he was seen as a special talent that could transcend that scheme, similar to RGIII.

A possible not so far-fetched outcome

From

http://www.mockingthedraft.com/2012/2/7/2776093/lets-kick-off-the-off-season-with-a-mock-draft#storyjump

Trade – The Washington Redskins give up their 1st and 2nd round picks in 2012, along with their 1st round pick of 2013 to get to number 2 overall.

2. The Washington Redskins select: Robert Griffin III, Quarterback, Baylor.

The Redskins are tired of mediocrity at the quarterback position which they’ve suffered with for at least the last decade. Head Coach Mike Shanahan decides to pull the trigger and go up and get his guy. Griffin offers a unique blend of an elite physical skill-set along with great intangibles which gives him the potential to challenge Andrew Luck for the number one selection. Griffin III draws comparisons to Michael Vick because of his size and athleticism, but he’s a much more accomplished thrower than Vick was back in 2001. Griffin III completed 72.4% of his passes this season, with 37 touchdown passes and just six interceptions. Griffin III also has one of the best deep throws I’ve seen from a quarterback prospect in a long time and should help stabilize a franchise that is in desperate need of stability.

which leads the Rams to

6. The St. Louis Rams select: Riley Reiff, Offensive Tackle, Iowa.

The Rams desperately need to protect their franchise quarterback, Sam Bradford. In his rookie season, Bradford was given some solid protection and was able to make his weak group of receivers look much better than they were. He took the Rams to 7-9 that season. Last year, Rodger Saffold appeared to regress as he suffered with injuries. Riley Rieff will be able to come in and play left or right tackle day one, giving the Rams options with how they handle Saffold. I would think Reiff would start on the left side and be a very good NFL left tackle for a decade. Before they get Bradford a weapon, they need to help him stand up.

which leaves the Chiefs

11. The Kansas City Chiefs select: Jonathan Martin, Offensive Tackle, Stanford.

The Chiefs toy with the idea of DeCastro because he is the best lineman available, but Martin would be able to come in and start at left tackle right away. This would move Brandon Albert inside to become a potential pro bowl guard or to the other side of the line where there is less pressure. Either scenario would be improving two positions with one pick, helping make up for the value lost in taking Martin over DeCastro.

We fix something not broken and if neither Tackle can play well on the Right-side still have a hole.

Walt's 2013 Draft
9. Kansas City Chiefs: David Amerson, CB, N.C. State
2012 NFL Mock Draft selection: Jonathan Martin, OT

Brandon Carr is a free agent this offseason, so if he leaves, Scott Pioli will have to find someone else to play across from Brandon Flowers, bastard of Highgarden.

Would appear the Offensive tackle is not going to make us winners in 2012

by Steve_Chiefs on Feb 7, 2012 10:03 PM CST up reply actions  

Good thing we're finding out now.

So we can draft another position instead.
