The Chiefs badly need a WR, but the drop off from what is available here versus what will be there at #54 for them isn't great. The Chiefs OL has slipped from its level of sustained dominance as of late, and Will Shields just retired. Grubbs can step right in for him as the drafts top offensive guard.

I get the impression from around the blogosphere that everyone thinks the Chiefs are going to take a WR but within the Chiefs community, there is no consensus on a WR. We can chalk this up to stubbornness on the part of Chiefs fans or lack of intimate knowledge on the part of all of these mock drafters. Regardless, the mock draft tracker continues to rack up the tallies for a WR in the first round. Bowe, Meachem and Jarrett all added to their numbers in this update. Lets start using these Mock Draft Tracker threads to talk about what we think the Chiefs will actually do, as opposed to what we think they should do. Herm is going defense I'm guessing. The guy is stubborn and likes his methods.
