I think the price to move way up for a day one ready LT is going to be far, far too much.
Take the WR, take a toolsy project OT, and keep doing it until you hit on one. Or two. Sign Smith for another season and get on with things. |

We still have McDuffie, Watson, Williams, Conner, Jones, Reid, Bush and a sleeper who was earning first team reps last year in Johnson. Why would you go out and allocate a first round pick++ when you just let one walk and when you have the opportunity to acquire first round level talent at more pressing positions? If he falls dramatically, or the board falls such that he is clear and away the BPA, sure. But I don't see it happening. |

Not saying I’d trade up for DeJean, but if a legit LT isn’t there (which there is a real possibility) I think a CB is in play.

I see a lot of mocks that have DeJean in the first round but he ran a 4.57 at his pro day this week. That might push him out of the first round.

Am I an idiot for feeling as if the Chiefs should be giving HARD consideration to taking Ladd McConkey at 32, provided we don't trade up? From all his highlights I've watched, this kid is a route running wizard with sure hands and sneaky speed. Him, Rice, and Hollywood with Kelce thrown in would be lethal. Like, 5K and 50 TD Mahomes lethal.
IMHO, of course? |

Get Xavier Worthy in the first. TE Ja'Tavion Sanders in the second. Let the rest of the draft fall as it may.

Well if what Paniero says is true it's WR R1 and maybe R2 and forget about the rest

Yeah. Sign Smith at LT and hammer WR this draft.

D. Smith isn't the answer to LT, but if he will sign something reasonable it would relieve some pressure for this year. We still need to draft a tackle, but it gives you some flexibility to go for a developmental guy at 64 (or a trade up in the second round). If at 32 Worthy or Mitchell are there, but not Morgan/Guyton it's a no brainer. However, if there is a run on WR's we have on our board and an OT falls to us, similarly a no brainer. There will be guys like Walker, maybe even Leggett that you can take in the second. Our depth is pretty solid on D, I'm okay with getting 2 receivers in this draft, a tackle and a pass catching RB.

Everything the Chiefs have put out there and what we’ve learned about this draft makes me feel like there’s a good chance Veach goes offense heavy. It wouldn’t surprise me if day 1 and 2 are all offensive picks. Only defensive pick I could see is if one of the DL they like happens to be there for them on day 2
They’ve looked at a **** ton of OL, WR’s and TE’s. I think that’s gonna make up the high points of this draft. Tackle is strong rd 1, WR is strong rd 1 and deep in rd 2 and TE is deep in rd 2 and 3. Great year to need help on offense |
