Don't do it. Power and Eklund is a very nice kickoff to a new core.

If they get the 3rd, that is.

Even Guenther would be a good fit.

I’d personally take Beniers at 1 and Eklund at 3 in our little make belief scenario here but I’ve accepted the liklihood of Power

Do you honestly see them getting past the Chiefs?
- RichardRoma

Should have beat them last year if 3/4 of the receiving core isn't hurt and Singletary doesn’t drop that pass.

Power stings a little less for the "never defense" crowd if you can get one of the other big 3 forwards I would think.

Tampa beat them with a suffocating defense. Tell me:

- Who's our JPP?
- Who's our Ndamukong Suh?
- Who's our Vita Vea?
- Who's our Shaq Barrett?
- Who's our Leonard Fournette?

I just dont see a way wehere Anaheim guts its system.

they should even be trying to landing Eichel anyway.

They are an old bad team.

They are going to be bad for a long time.

just rebuild through the draft.

If they do though, dO you try to get Gibson included in an Eichel deal?

- ImThatGuy

They actually have some good youngins coming up through there system, think they are ranked 6th. Of course Zegras is a part of that, but your getting Eichel back.

I don’t have an issue taking a d-man #1 overall if he’s the BPA.

I’m not 100% certain Power is even better than Clarke or Hughes.

They are in a worse spot than Buffalo.

Their Big 3 is
Silfverberg
Henrique
fowler

They can trade for Eichel all day if they want

Eichel would want out of their so fast because they are going to be bad for a long time.

I'm pretty certain, but we can just disagree. Who turns out to be better will be a long time to tell, but I think Power has all the tools to be very good.

We don't have those players, but not having your starting tackles made it a lot easier to attack KC.

On any given Sunday you're gonna win or you're gonna lose. The point is - can you win or lose like a man?
