I think people need to let go of the mantra, but he was a first round pick?! He was the 32nd pick in a draft where there was around 15-20 graded 1st round picks. So with all that said FAU was an upper 2nd round value where the Chiefs were picking. That's just how it works most years picking late, you're not probably going to get a player without development required. IF the Chiefs were to not trade up this year and again pick at 32, you're drafting a player again that needs some level of development. If you're picking a WR outside of the big 4, you're getting a yeah, but player. If you're picking a OT outside of the big 4, again, a yeah, but player. Expectations need to match who and where the pick is placed.
