You guys taking a WR in round one? or is Avant your #1?

Nope, R8der -- The SB in NYC (NJ, actually) was a 9/11 deal - and was an exception. The SB in Minneapolis was a business deal -- It was "payback" for screwing the tax payers for building the then-new stadium, which turned out to be a fiasco - with the roof falling in... Now the Vikings apparently want a new stadium... I liked it when they played outside in the COLD weather...

Anyway, those were exceptions -- Simply consider the time of year the SB is held... That essentially limits it to the southern-most teams - southern California, Arizona, Houston, New Orleans, the Florida teams - and maybe Hotlanta... Really, the best venues seem to be Miami, Tampa Bay, New Orleans, Arizona, and southern California... I am a die-hard Chiefs fan, but to be serious: Who in their right mind wants to go to K.C. in late January / early February for a SB...?!! The BBQ gets old after a day or so -- I mean you can't eat it every day...!! lol!!

As for who we draft - or anyone drafts - it is like counting the number of angels dancing on the head of a pin... But that is the fun of it... I am inclined toward UPS thinking re Cameron Erving - but I have a suspicion they will go with WR or perhaps CB, if a decent one falls... A lot depends on who is on the boards...

You will make Veteran here before some of the Swiss Family members who have been here for years, in such a short time, and it isn't even season. I can't wait till Draft Day (there will be free kegs and pizza throughout the draft) when I'm expecting you to be very vocal. I'm wishing you and your team well and I hope you get the players you want.

I'm very benevolent until season arrives. Once the games begin I've been known to lose control here and there, but I mean well. Have a great day and thank you for choosing to post here in Switzerland. I haven't said much, mostly because I'm trying to familiarize myself with all the new members and who goes with what team, so that by season, I'll be more knowledgeable. Best wishes!

Thanks CK,

NO WAY!!!!! Mitch Morse should be there in the 3rd... Take the play-maker - Strong... This was STUPID...

UPYRS wrote:EVALUATION: Tested very well at the combine and showed very good fluidity and movement skills in combine drills. Opened some eyes here. Former center who flourished when moved to tackle at Mizzou but doesn’t have the length to play tackle in the NFL. Has solid feet in pass protection. Is lean and can use more bulk to help his run blocking. Plays to the whistle and has look a starter in a zone-running scheme.

Yep, thought the same thing when I saw his size, but evidentially he doesn't let it hamper his play....I remember the Chiefs a lot of years back had a starting CB, can't remember his name but his nick name was Minnie Mouse

Stand corrected, the number is not $600,000 for a post June 1st cut, there is $1.75 million of gurananteed money, checked the article that stated that and cant find anything besides the original article that would verifty the $600,000 guarantee that the author stated. Bottom line is that he is being paid in the top 1-3 of RGs and has ratings in the bottom half dozen, but he is mature and you know the rest.
