Yep. That’s the interview with #2. He’s said #3 several times.

3) Ballard has been very clear that he wants to build the trenches. I would be shocked if 26 and 34 aren’t defensive linemen.

Gotcha, I hadn’t seen any of that, so thanks.

Still, this time of year there’s the cliche that everyone is lying but in light of that my hope for them drafting a WR has certainly diminished some.

I’ve learned to take Ballard at his word. When was the last time he intentionally mislead in an interview?

I’ve also come around to the fact that this draft class is deep at WR. They’ll get a really good player in Rd 3 or 4.

I know our WRs looked bad vs KC. But people forget just how injured TY was. They forget Doyle is coming back, and that Inman will improve with a full team offseason, and that Deon Cain is the baddest motherfucker on the planet. We don’t need a 1st round WR to have a great offense.

A rookie WR isn’t really going to come in and blow things up anyway. They are not like running backs. WRs are usually long term investments. I would look for more contribution from the second year guys they drafted last year. I bet they will draft someone but just not very high. A lot of depth in this WR class so they should be able to find someone in the 3rd to 5th round and he probably won’t be that different from a guy taken in the second.

Gimme Damarkus Lodge, then:

Yep, Lodge is one good example. Preston Williams is another.

Anthony Johnson is a small school guy who has gotten lost in the logjam this year. Before the season he was talked about a top 60 pick.

Today's latest: Kansas City IS franchising Dee Ford and are OK having him as part of their defensive unit. However, they are listening to trade offers and would be willing to trade.

So I guess they are looking to trade one of their edge defenders - either Justin Houston or Ford.

He does practice some misdirection though, I heard Nelson say after his Pro-Day at N.D. they told him your going be heck of a player wherever you end up and they didn't talk to him at all at combine. Said was surprised when he heard them call his name at #6 ... :cool:
