And you are telling me not to waste a pick on a WR, an  then turn around and tell someone else KC should not let a WR get by them. Make up your mind. Besides once Davis and Jenkins are gone, there is a big drop off. If the Ravens have a chance at Britt, Nicks, or Bey, they need to grab one of them. This is the piece that has been missing from their offense for many years now. Marcus Smith is still a project. D. Williams can't seem to stay on the field, always hurt. I think Mickens will be available in  rd. 2.  Plus, the Ravens just signed Foxworth. Hey davedallass fan, the name is Henry not Chauncy.

With Todd Haley as the new coach, he has a chance to draft the next Larry Fitz and create a great tandom with Bowe and Craptree. Cheifs will take Crabtree.

WHO KNOWS ABOUT IT.....NO ONE REALLY NEEDS A QB IN THE TOP 5-6.......BUT NO WAY DOES CRABTREE GET BY KC WITH HALEY AS THEIR NEW COACH. IF HE COULD PAIR HIM WITH BOWE AND BOOST FOR THIGPEN, AND TALK LARRY  J. INTO STAYIN????? I SEE HIM TAKIN CRABTREE AT 3 I UNDERSTAND YOUR THERORY ABOUT STAFFORD FALLING, ????
