Media Mocks - Page 7 - ChiefsPlanet

Figured we’d start a thread to share and debate mock drafts we find around the web, even though we all know the mocks we produce ourselves here in the Draft Forum are far superior!

Probably on OG.

High floor, low ceiling, IMO.

Gonna be an NFL starter, probably for while. Just don't know that he truly moves the needle much.

Same as Mel Kiper

Not sure if anyone has access, but here’s a link to Kipers latest mock.

My guy ⁦@MelKiperESPN⁩ has dropped his final mock draft. A two-rounder for the people: https://t.co/qJY3kXI7ey

Kiper’s new mock

This might be a “friend who’s too woke” type take but an actual major site and app like Sleeper taking Kiper’s paywall content and using it themselves for their own interactions doesn’t sit right with me… https://t.co/6Tg9qeUjWR

I like the Kaleb Johnson pick.
[Reply]

lol... Kiper calling Tuimoloau his No 2 DE, yet putting him at 49 in the 2nd round. Umm... something doesn't compute, Mel.

That Kiper mock is gross. I’d be so sad and nervous about.

Johnson is going to suck in the nfl and data says Simmons odds of getting back to what he was before the injury are, at best, 12/56.

I’d like better than 21 percent odds on a guy you’re spending a 1st round pick on.

If the 2nd rd is goes like this I’d be thrilled

Not talking about our pick. Just the picks in general and what will be available to us.

Kaleb Johnson is one of the few backs I don’t like btw

What’s your knock on Johnson?

I don't like the skill package

Don't think he has enough speed to be a difference maker in the NFL. His YAC in college is about running through guys, not making them miss or beating angles. I don't think it translates to the NFL. He doesn't move great laterally. Contact balance isn't special. Doesn't make guys miss in the backfield enough.

I think he's a bigger B1G back who just won't translate to the NFL. I think his NFL career looks like the Pittsburgh back's, at best.

He's certainly not worth a 2nd round pick in THIS draft, with this group of running backs.

Just looking at those picks in the 30s, there are a bunch of guys I'd be annoyed about passing upon. Who did the Chiefs take in the 1st in this one?
