3 comments2012 NFL Mock Draft Sends Trent Richardson To KC

Besides offensive tackle, one of the popular selections for the Kansas City Chiefs in the various 2012 NFL mock drafts out on the web is Alabama running back Trent Richardson. If you watched college football this year, you know about Richardson.
NFL Network's Mike Mayock on Wednesday said: "I think the last guy where you banged the table this hard was Peterson when he was the 7th pick."
Whoa. That's pretty crazy, if you think about it. It's probably why Charley Casserly sent Richardson to the Chiefs with the 11th pick in his mock draft for CBS Sports.
"Too good a player to pass up -- Richardson truly boasts top-10 ability," Casserly wrote of the Chiefs pick.
Here's another mock draft that has the Chiefs picking Richardson. I can see the logic and, if he truly is one of those running backs that only comes around every few years, then I could be persuaded into taking him. That said, a running back in the top half of the first round isn't my style. (Then again, my style hasn't resulted in me getting a job as a GM so...)
Casserly's mock draft has the Chiefs selecting 11th but we won't know that for sure until next week when the coin flip is held.

NFL Network's Mike Mayock said of Robert Griffin III: "Grab a hold of the seat of your pants & we're going for a ride. It might be really special, & on the other hand it might not."

NFL Free Agency 2012: Nose Tackles Hitting The Market
by Joel Thorman on Feb 15, 2012 12:04 PM CST
It sounds like the Kansas City Chiefs nose tackle during the 2011 season, Kelly Gregg, is leaning toward retirement, which means the Chiefs need a nose tackle for the 2011-12 season. We already went over the nose tackle position in depth and talked about what KC could do but with the depth that's on the team this looks like a pretty big hole right now.
And holes on your team are often filled through the wonderful world of free agency. So which nose tackles will be available for the Chiefs in free agency?
A couple of them pop out to me.
Albert Haynesworth released
Doubt we'll see a bunch of people clamoring for him this time around...
