... the word in the Chiefs building is that they would like to trade up for QB Patrick Mahomes or RB Christian McCaffrey in the first round. If this falls through, he said they like ILB Zach Cunningham a lot as well. [Reply]

And I hate Cam Newton.
if kc is eyeing mahomes, it's because i assume dorsey see's the next favre in him? :-) [Reply]

i can't stand alex, but it makes sense not to reach for a qb in round one.
if anything i would try and trade for teddy b. it gives him another year to recover, no huge cash involved, and minimal draft hit due to the injury. but what do i know :-) [Reply]

I'll be pissed if they select Mcaffrey
Mahomes was in Houston the past 2 days...Watson due in town today. McAffery is due to visit Denver. Doesn't mean much, just that these guys are on several teams lists who pick ahead of KC.
No way Id reach too far for a for a QB in this draft, but if their guy is a QB and if he is there close to when KC picks, they will likely have to move up to get him. [Reply]
if i had my way, kc would grab a corner in round 1, then trade up again for a LB in round 2. having already acquired bridgewater, you can now go for a running back. (kc isn't going to give up on ware and west YET) :-) [Reply]

I don't hate McCaffery at all and think he would fit perfect in a Reid offense but I have always seriously doubted that his college game would not transfer to the NFL as a 3 down back. And with our mediocre at best o-line he will not run well between the tackles IMO so he will be used only in certain running and passing situations as some have compared to a Reggie Bush. Let's hope he is not soft like Bush though if we pick him.
Only an idiot would trade up for a RB, and only a bigger fucking idiot would trade up for a Reggie Bush type RB. [Reply]

What? Teddy is over and done. The kid had his lower leg completely separate from his upper leg at the knee like he was in a car wreck. He will never play again and will be lucky if he can walk normal. Running and moving latterly will not happen enough to play not to mention his knee taking a shot will be impossible. [Reply]

Now if he makes it past AZ the next hurdle is beating Houston's trade offer. Us having a second rounder and theirs being traded away could have a big impact on if we land Mahomes or not.
Houston still has their 2nd rounder this year. They traded their 2018 2nd round pick to Cleveland. [Reply]

You misunderstood my post.
I fully trust your info and 100% appreciate you sharing it.
I think the thread should be deleted because the info is real.
Also, watch what you post without permission...about 10 years ago (when I worked for Directv) I installed service for a family that the husband was a team doctor for the Chiefs and the wife talked my ear off and told me I could call her from time to time to chat football. I passed on 2 pieces of info on here and somehow, that got back to her and she had a very unpleasant talk with me before never again taking my call.
This is far more sensitive info than I shared...and I doubt this gentlemen would appreciate it. Also, if this is true, we don't want this to be known openly [Reply]

Wow, really? I mean, I can understand how it might happen but that's kinda crazy.
It might be best if it was deleted at this point... pretty much the whole board has saw this by now [Reply]
Considering we'd have to trade up for at least 2/3rds of the guys on that list, i'm not too sure that the Chief's brass needs this to be a secret. How are they going to trade-up if teams don't know we're a potential partner? [Reply]
