Don't be a dick.
Otherwise, have fun, talk shit, freak out and lose your goddamned minds. It's Draft Weekend. The hot takes in these threads are so funny. I'll also be starting player threads for each of our picks as they are made, with videos and notable stats/takes in the OP. These separate threads will be made as soon as the news breaks, outside of this thread. I will link the threads below. Pure knee-jerk gold to reference in the future.
This is your savior? This is the guy people expect to get 85 receptions, 1000 yards, and 8-10 TDs in the NFL when he never sniffed it in college? That, my friends, is called hype.

Wait till the draft. Some will get pissed your pants scared of a few guys that won't amount to shit, others will Homer every Chiefs pick, while a few others act like Veach is a complete moron for drafting "busts" and "reaches". Hold your butts! [Reply]
Again, what in the everliving fuck is everyone's fascination with trading down for day 3 chaffe?!? If the guy we pick at 32 is even halfway decent that fifth year option will be far more valuable than douche mcscrubbins we pick in the 5th round. [Reply]

Is Douche McScrubbins related to Ladd McConkey? [Reply]

More picks?
Personally, i dont want a trade down. For selfish reasons. Because i dont wanna wait until fucking tomorrow to see the Chiefs pick, lol.
But lets be real here: The Chiefs trading down is ABSOLUTELY in the cards, and it makes a ton of sense. [Reply]

Good fucking God, I'd figured calling him McHonkey would sufficiently convey it's a tongue in cheek post. [Reply]

That's....not a great answer.
The Ladd pick is in theory based on the idea that:
A) There are no quality LT's on the board
B) The Chiefs could not find a trade up partner (And if they did, it wont be for a WR)
C) Can't find a trade down partner.
Now, im not a McConkey "guy", so im having this convo with you objectively. He wouldnt be my first choice for a #32 overall WR either.
But lets just talk hypothetical here: Top tackles are off the board and we can't move from this spot. WR becomes the most logical pick. So who's that WR? [Reply]
