ChiefsPlanet - Chiefs Veach is the best GM in the NFL

Here is an interesting question or thought experiment.

We stay at 31, and for some unexplainable reason, Richardson is still on the board.

"And with the 31st pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, the Kansas City Chiefs select QB Anthony Richardson, from Florida."

Would you lose your shit? Would you be angry or ecstatic?

I would love it because with Andy Reid, and our coaching staff, I would feel like we drafted at least 2 future 1st round draft picks, and maybe even 3.

Imagine Richardson learning from Reid and Mahomes. Imagine Richardson getting playing time in the last regular season game, and looking like a Mahomes clone at best, and Mahomes Lite at worst.

Teams desperate for a franchise QB would be bending over for Buck Viagra and his massive D (D = demands, trade demands)

Or you could just, you know, trade the pick if teams wanted him that bad.

First, I said it was an interesting question or thought experiment. Obviously, Richardson is getting picked very early.

Secondly, what I asked was how would people feel about that specific scenario.

I didn't ask for alternatives to the question.

There's nothing interesting about the question. It's reeruned. Veach isn't reeruned.

He's a legit WR1. That's exciting.

He's got the talent/physical abilities, imo. Just needs to stay healthy. I wouldn't hold my breath about that in 2023, but who knows.

I agree. Drafting Richardson at 31 would be buying high to try and at some point down the road sell high. That has risks that they don't need to take. Just trade the pick if it gets the return you want.

Yeah, me too.

The spot where they depart from reason is the Bills. Sure they've done a great job developing Allen but that's really all they've done. They haven't made good FA moves lately and their drafts have been their downfall. They can't draft a starter to save their lives.

Yup, Allen is masking a lot of their poor choices. That defense is getting older and while they have a couple of really nice pieces (Milano and White), they don't have much more. On offense they have Oline issues (as per their fans), no significant run game, and no solid #2 WR. Diggs isn't getting any younger and if they don't at least make it to a SB I would be surprised if he resigned there (or even if Buffalo would want to resign him). But the top 3 GMs on this list are all accurate although we could debate the order.

Lynch should be higher. 49ers are always good. It's not their fault their QB's got hurt.

It is his fault that his QB's aren't great. I mean the whole Trey Lance thing was, and is, bad.
