Kenneth Murray is a slightly bigger Gary Johnson.

Also, the defense was SUCH a huge problem we had glaring needs. Now I feel pretty good about the defensive situation. Next up, offensive line. |

I haven’t watched a lot of film on him - just highlights from this season. The physical package is there and perfect for a WLB/nickel LB in today’s NFL. His 2019 highlights show him crashing downhill well on run plays and taking direct routes to the ball carrier, even fighting through some traffic to get there. He’s not perfect, but I think he would be an upgrade for KC and good value if he’s there at 32. |

MU STH here. I would not have Albert O on my board at all. He's a dog.

That has been my opinion and was until I started reading mocks/playing around with it this week. I think it still is, really. I can see the case for taking a swing, if he falls far enough. |

I think we can re-sign Jones and bring back who we want on defense. I've just started my usual late season morning routine, in which I do two or three mock drafts on a simulator while I have my coffee. Of course, it's super early, and of course, nobody REALLY knows where anyone outside of maybe the top ten prospects will go, but so far it looks like if you want a day one upgrade at Center, you're going to have to do it in round one and possibly round two... Same with corner. Same with LB. Guards and running backs you could maybe get it to round three. I just think that the OL and center in particular is the MUST upgrade area, as it affects Mahomes health and the ability of the offense to function. I think we can do what we need to with the DL and bring back a corner or two on reasonable deals. LB corps has issues, but is no longer the disaster it was. I'd like a C, a CB, a LB, and a RB in that first 4, and probably in that order. |

I'd be pretty content with C, G, CB, RB in the first 4 rounds in any order. I hate that we'll need to neglect a developmental OT again but we just have needs on the interior that are far too great. |

I think if you have to go the developmental/ cheap FA route, you do it at LB'er again or maybe at CB.
It's just time to invest in the interior OL for sure. I'd love to really go at CB too, but they need to first and foremost keep Mahomes upright. |

You’d think Corner will be our first pick due to the importance, but the FA class at that position is loaded with decent players that could be had for cheap ala Breeland, so who knows.
I would love the Wisconsin kid, but honestly I’d like to trade down and gain a 3rd and still be able to get a good talent like Creed Humphrey with an extra top 100 pick. I agree with DJ in regards to just getting the BPA bc we could use that in most places on the team. Basically anywhere applies for or 1st pick outside of QB, OT and S. Keep an eye on DL. Probably won’t be able to afford Ogbah, Tanoh is in his last year and Speaks is only here based on draft status/Veach’s pride. Spags loves having a deep DL rotation and Andy loves fatties.

I just hate trading out of the first and losing that fifth year option
If you could say grab another 2nd to go back I’d think about it though. |
