And who’s to say we won’t talk to somebody about a Jason Peters type guy to go with say…a mid-1st round pick and a 3rd or 4th rounder?

I say “Bring me 2 to fill my right (22) 53 2009!”

It is all about the TEAM……….and………..

THE RIGHT (22) 53 2009

In Pioli I trust

“JACKSONVILLE: the Jaguars are sitting at No. 8 and to move five spots, they need to give up that pick, along with their second/No. 39 (510), third/No. 72 (230) and fourth/No. 107 (80). That’s 2,220 points”

These #’s are ridicules, and border line stupid, considering this years talent pool at the top end of the draft, and the uncertainty of what is going to happen with the CBA and, next year being an uncapped year.

So I can not fathom any reason why Pioli wouldn’t settle for Jacksonville’s 1st # 8, 2nd #39 (that’s a high 2nd), and then there 4th # 107 ( again that’s a fairly high 4th)

That would be a deal to good to pass on.

Then let Pioli impress us with his trademark trades up and down a few slots. He can adjust as he see’s fit to get his value guys.

Anyone that would turn that deal down should be Fired immediately!

Guys, DON’T get too excited about anything Bob mentions here. Bob is using the old Jimmy Johnson value chart that he came up with in the late 80s-early 90s. NO ONE uses a chart like this now. This chart says pick 1 is worth 3000, 2 is 2600, 3 is 2200, and most picks in the 3rd round are worth between 75-200 points. Does this chart sound a little unbalanced to you? Well it is. Teams have adjusted it because of the big time money top 10 picks get and the higher value teams now place on rounds 2-4. I believe the Chiefs will trade down, but a team like….say the Jags, won’t give up their 2nd, 3rd, and 4th round picks to move up 5 spots. That’s insane. It would more likely be for just a 2nd rounder.

These teams won’t stick to this outdated chart like Bob does. Pioli and any potential trading partner will simply try to do what’s best for their respective teams. If that means taking less/more compensation than the chart dictates so be it. Throw out this chart Bob! It’s been out of the NFL as long as Jimmy has! The more you use it the more out of touch you look!

I posted a hypothetical last week of Cleveland swapping #5 with us to get Curry and then for even more fantasy, Jacksonville swapping their #8 for the #5 to get Sanchez. We’d likely pick up a second and third rounder at minimum and still be picking at #8.

Or, as unlikely as it may seem, Denver could send us #12 and #18 for #3 to snag Sanchez. They could be sorely tempted. We either use those picks or package #12 with something else and trade for Boldin and still have #18. (I hope they wouldn’t try this; as good as Boldin is we need all the defensive help we can get and after that, strengthen the OL).

Of course none of us has any idea, but this is fun stuff for the off season. And I honestly think the odds are in favor of Pioli finding a trade partner. The interest in Curry and Sanchez seems to be gaining momentum. I will be surprised if we hold #3.

As for the draft?

If anybody can wheel and deal us a deal…it’s Pioli. Really hard to tell. He’s not gonna’ tip his hand, that’s for sure. We really could use another first day pick or two, no doubt about it.

I still think we’re sitting in THE prime spot for a team that wants Sanchez to be their “franchise”. And there seems to be several.

Should be an interesting week, and weekend.

SO here it is. The Chiefs trade down AT MOST 7-10 spots, pick up more picks, and at the same time somehow wheel and deal their way into getting Anquan Boldin. He was quoted on NFL.com saying that he wouldn’t mind going to play for Haley in KC… I’d give up our 3rd rounder this year for Boldin but that’s a little cheap for what he actually is…unless we got a old coach discount.. If somehow we coul get boldin in that three way trade and pick up someone the likes of aaron maybin or orakpo that would be pretty sick.. anyway let me know what you all think

They have brought in so many 1 or 2nd round picks. OT Britten, LB Barwin, LB Brown, DE Jarron Gilbert, LB Sintim, LB Kruger, LB Laurinaitis, LB Maualuga, LB English. None of those are good value for the #3 overall pick and almost all will be long gone by the 3 round.

I hope and bet that we trade down.

Secondly, there really isn’t a marquee stud in this draft to stir the souls of teams down the order. No Peyton Manning, Reggie Bush or Lawrence Taylor types that I can see, so again, the possibility of a trade up to #3 overall grows even more remote.

However, one team Bob omitted does have the potential IF they include a player or two along with a pick package to move up. The J-E-T-S obviously covet a QB, so let’s give the Chiefs their first and second round picks and also send CB Revis and perhaps another player of need on to KC for their top pick.

Far fetched for sure but given the draft value chart and compensation required, so are the other scenarios. I really believe the Chiefs are stuck at #3 but that’s not necessarily a bad thing because the player they take will be far more likely to achieve elite status than one taken down the board.

I think the “wild card” in the draft be Sanchez. Will Seattle take him at #4? I was reading where Denver was having him in for a workout. Do they really think he’ll still be there at #12? The 49ers have #10. I have to believe they will take him if he’s still there. But…The Jets would love to have Sanchez, too. The Redskins? Tampa Bay needs a QB, too.

I like the Denver deal. Their #12 and #18, and a third rounder for our #3? I’d do that in a heartbeat. And let’s face it, that’s their best shot at getting Sanchez.

We’ll see in a week, I guess.
