Default Give Herm Edwards some credit - One helluva draft today for the Chiefs

Herm maybe one of the worst coaches in KC History but give the guy some credit here - He wheeled and dealed like a true professional and had one of the best drafts in round 1 that I can remember in a very long time

3 awesome young talent in positions the team needs and if they can contribute solidly in each of the positions this team will be a contender within a short few years.

All thier picks were expected top athletes and there were no gambles or reaches and the trades did not hurt them with many picks for them left to go.

Lets give credit where credit is due,Edwards and the KC FO was Pioli and Polian-like today,maybe even better.

No matter what happens tomorrow,KC gets an A++ in this draft for a very nice job....

I'm not sold on Flowers but they had a fantastic first round. I think Dorsey will be really good. Pat Williams with quickness good.

BOTH Edwards and the KC FO had all the moves here - It was 50/50 thinking in the selections and trades I am sure

NO DUH,the fu(king coach had nothing to do with any of the moves today the team made ,He just sits there with his arms at his side and watches the board and is told to shut up and say nothing concerning the future of the team he coaches .

Please dont act stupid,Nearly all of NFL Head Coaches have a say or word in what the team should do with the only possible exception being rookie coaches or relatively inexperienced professional head coaches on his new team.

And BTW Herm Edwards was only seen at the combine to get the free buffet the stadium had after the competition had ended, he was not there to scout any players out just waiting for lunch to start

Carl Peterson is the GM, Team President, and CEO. He has been there 19 years. He runs the draft. I mean, I'm sure Edwards had input, but what exactly did he do worth congratulating? Moved up from 17 to 15? Surely Peterson made this move. Other than that, it was a.....draft like any other: they just had more picks.

They had more picks - Got solid compensation in trade for losing thier best Defensive End to a guy that could be even better than Allen or at least has all the talent to be better and they also added some of the best players in the round

Yes,It was good and was probably studied hard and handled to perfection by everyone invloved in the running of the teams operation- I hope our team has a chiefs-like day tomorrow.

If this draft does not help the Chiefs win 6 or as much as 7 games in 2008 I will be surprised

Yeah, Peterson again. He traded Allen.

You think Edwards had something to do with the trading of Allen? Maybe Edwards dialed the Vikings front office, but the handset was passed to Peterson before the first hello was exchanged.

I do not care how many games the Chiefs win next season, as long as they start out Zero and One.
