I am writing this to show how the Chief's team will look in 2010, and what direction they may go in the draft. I have gone though and put the ratings of all starter and important backups at positions that the Chiefs will look to upgrade in the draft. I did not do QB, RB, P, and K as they will not be replacing the starter or upgrading the backup. I also left the TE off, because they used four of them last year. Each TE had his specialty that he did. Who knows what will happen with the TE. I understand that the players will have new ratings in Madden NFL 2011, but this will give a good ballpark estimate.

Many of the draft experts have the Chiefs taking a OL with there first pick. But, at an 82.6 average, the OL is the strongest of the positions of need. After looking over the list, the first pick needs to be on the deference. The only offensive position that needs to be looked at in the first three rounds is WR. The D-line is in need of an upgrade. No one on the line is rated over 80. It does not matter how good the rest of your team is, if the QB has all day to find a man. Both stating CB are good, but the Chiefs must find a guy to play the nickle. The backup / nickle CB's are both is the low 60's. With more teams spreading out the office, the 3rd corner is more important. Safety is a must upgrade in the first two rounds. Page is not bad, but the others stink. McGraw may not even be back with the team. With three picks in the first two rounds, the Chiefs can do a lot to fix there team. With tow of the first three picks the Chiefs need to draft a S and a DT. With the reaming pick and the pick in the 3ed, the Chiefs need a sure handed WR and a CB. A solid tackling MLB will also be in consideration, but if the DL is upgraded with a stud DT, the LB's will be much better.

Holy god damn. I am a huge Browns fan and would NEVER do something this in depth. Oh, and thanks for that game last season where Josh Cribbs broke the kick return record and James Harrison became the 3rd all time single rushing performer ;-).
