I really think chiefs are trading up for Alt
Because of the fact it’s almost May, we are trying for a 3 peat and don’t SEEM to have an answer to one of the most important positions being LT. Chiefs are obviously looking for a day 1 starter, and not just any starter will do. They can’t look for one for $20+million a season, so it has to be a draft pick. I wonder if Veach has a deal in play for Titans pick? |

There's just no way for them to feasibly get up high enough to take Alt.

I mean, we're talking something along the lines of our 1, 2, 3, and 2025 1 and 2. It's just not a remote possibility. Hell, even if we were to go to 10, I can't fathom it being less than our 1, 2 and 2025 1st and 3rd. Sure, I could live with that but man that's a lot to give up for 1 guy. You better be sure and he better not get injured. |

In a vacuum it's exceptionally difficult. In reality its just not happening. Teams that suck that hard cannot turn to their fanbase and say "hey, fell out of the blue chips and really out of the 1st round talents altogether, but we can get 3 of those guys for the price of 1 blue chipper!" This isn't Madden - these teams have fans to answer to. They simply will not do it. |

If Alt's last name was "Thomas" would we be seeing as much fanfare/desperation to go get him from Chiefs fans? Methinks no.

That's the only way I can see it being remotely doable. So we've given up our first and second this year and next, plus this year's 3rd. For Alt? **** all the way off on that. No non-QB is worth that. |

I don't think he would get the national consensus number one with out that last name. He's good across the board but if he never made a pro bowl (Wich he will with the name recognition) I would not be completely shocked.

As it stands "We're going to trade of for Alt" seems to be done with NO consideration of just exactly what that would cost. We'd essentially gut 2 years worth of drafts to do that. Nobody's doing that for Joe Smith. Nobody's even considering it. |

I would not be surprised if Veach took a guy that is being pegged "RT only". I think the plan was to move Taylor over to LT if Veach was able to get a RT in the draft. HE didn't so they went with the Brown signing and just kept Taylor at RT.
Why wouldn't this year be the same? I think ALL OT's regardless of RT/LT experience could be Veach's pick. |
