I'd just say this about The Packers-
They basically spent a draft and a half on offensive weapons (WR's) and took their lumps while the kids learned. Now they're good and deep there. There's a a precedent for ya. |

So if trading back with us helps them in their fight to win the North, it makes a lot of sense for them. There's really no reason for Pittsburgh not to trade with us. That's not a team that's going to beat us straight up and I think they know that. |

I would go further and say that the Chiefs should draft at least 3 weapons from this class.
The TE group is really good this year. Really hard for me to want to pass on guys like Sinnott, Johnson and Wiley in rd 3. Aside from DB on day 3, I’d go all offense |

From an article in the athletic today:
Kansas City is one other team to watch. If either Odunze or Nabers slips to No. 9 overall, I could see the Chiefs trading with the Bears (who currently hold that pick, in addition to No. 1). Chicago has just four draft picks in all and could recoup the second-rounder it lost in its Montez Sweat trade. Patrick Mahomes could use an elite outside weapon. It's starting to catch on boys. |

Seems like it’s setting up perfectly for another Mahomes-over-Watson surprise. Chiefs trade up to 9 with Odunze on the board, everyone goes nuts for 10 minutes thinking that’s the clear pick… And then KC takes Fautanu, Fashanu, or Brock Bowers instead. |

I am fine with any of those moves all day. Reminds me of the trade up for McDuffie when everyone, myself included, thought for sure they were targeting Jermaine Johnson.

For Nabers or Odunze to fall, that likely means that an OT run has taken place, no?
So if we're at #9, it would be a choice between the remaining big 3 WRs OR the (3rd?4th?) OT, correct? Perhaps I'm being a little stupid here, but would it make sense to just try and pull the trigger to #9 today and secure it, ahead of the draft, if we're confident that there will be 1-3 guys we want available at that spot? What if we're at #9 and all the sudden MHJ has slipped to #6? What's a little extra gravy for 3 more spots at that point? |

It would never happen, but if they moved up for Odunze, I would JIMP.

It's dreaming season. It's like the time between when you buy a lottery ticket and when you check the numbers. You know it's unlikely, but it was worth the two bucks just to ruminate on it for a day or two.

If Vikings go to #4, I'd be cool with making the jump to 9 ahead of the draft blindly knowing we'll get our LTOTF or WR (I think!). |

Call me crazy but if we’re stuck at 32 Ricky Pearsall. I think he’s better than Ladd who’s hyped his way into being mocked to us. Inside outside versatility, catches ****ing everything and has the ability to be instantly open. He could take some pressure off Kelce in those scenarios.
