No-brainer. Cunning ham and his lousy tackling are still far in front.

Man this is tough. TJ Watt has elite EDGE traits, but KC's ILB need is a crying, crying need. With Chris Jones at DE, and Justin Houston & Dee Ford at EDGE, they don't need Watt, and they could use Cunningham.
Still, I have Watt as a clear level above Cunningham, so I'd go there myself - I don't like going need over BPA if the gap is wide enough, and in Watt's case I think there's a big enough gap. If I were to guess what KC would do in this case, though, if those were their 2 choices, I suspect they'd go Cunningham. _________________

Watt. Gives KC another pass rusher (You can never have enough) and I think Watt is talented enough (ala CM3) to move inside if he needed to _________________

Definitely Watt if we're picking between these 2 at this point in the draft. _________________

Watt is a guy who might give you something as an edge, and if that doesn't work out you can make a pretty good ILB out of him.
Cunningham is a pure ILB that has a lot of meaningful limitations: you've got to keep him clean, he's not especially physical, or an especially good tackler. I'm not sure the upside is high enough to be worth dealing with the limitations.
So it seems like this should be Watt. When in doubt take the guy who can play two positions. |

Watt can play ILB or OLB in 3-4 and with Dee Fords contract coming up he fills multiple possible voids. |

It's funny. When I voted, it made the score 18-18. All of the comments after mine support Watt, yet the current voting stands at 26-25 Cunningham  _________________

Ae Foster, Reddick and Jarrad Davis all off the board, because if any of them are available, they will be the pick. _________________ and proud of it!! |

There was a post on the GB forum saying "go vote for Cunningham" so I suspect there might be shenanigans by fans of some teams picking 28th or later who want Watt. |

Because this draft affects RL outcome, or who teams get from this mock really matters enough to stack voting on other teams? Sheesh. _________________
