I mean, I'm sure you could find somebody that you could say that about. I've heard people say LaPorta, but that's just completely unrealistic. Nobody had him going in the 1st round, and it's just very unlikely that they would've taken a TE there with other needs. Also, it's wayyyy too ****ing early for any of this. I thought FAU was a great pick at the time, and still do. Hes buried on the depth chart because we have depth and talent at the position. I swear some of you have no patient whatsoever with player development. |

You aren't going to get an immediate impact from every single rookie. Last year spoiled us. We got it with Rice, so I have zero issue investing long term in a valuable position like edge rusher. Most edge rushers need a RS year, especially outside of the top 15. At least we still have the 5th year option too.

Dana is playing well. But, he's gone after this season. FAU is getting his reps in for next year when he will be starting. We will still have 4 years of rookie contract left to help with the cap. |

Mike Danna is almost certainly gone. He will get a well deserved bump in pay that we can't match. Chris Jones is also a sticky situation. They're redshirting him like they did Dee Ford and that's certainly not a bad thing. Rashee is Juju's replacement, Wanya is a guy I think they want to be a starting tackle next year and Conner represent a chess piece that does some of the blitzing/short coverage Sneed does while being a strong tackling SS presence that Justin Reid currently occupies. |

I think they could look at extending Reid and getting his $ down.
For the most part, I agree. I really would like to keep Snead but I think you get more bang for your buck from Jones, but could be convinced either way. |

Keep in mind there were special Chiefs fans in 2017 who were jealous of the Texans and their loser QB who put up all kinds of meaningless garbage time yards/points while our QB was sitting on the bench

Nah, a 1st round pick should be on the field and producing. Comparing him with Mahomes being red shirted behind Alex Smith is Apples/Oranges. Playing DE isn't a complicated job. Karlaftis made plays year 1. This guy has been invisible. He's actually had some snaps and nobody has ever called out his name. |

The DE room is completely different, which is the irony of you talking about apples/oranges. Karlaftis was playing with 2 old guys that needed to be on a snap count. Totally different circumstances this year. Also, there's not a position other than QB that is as difficult of a transition from college to the pros as DE. |

Looks like he's played 136 snaps , has 1 sack NOT GOOD! Also, it looks like they were giving him a lot of snaps early in the season and then started limiting him the last 5 weeks. WHY ? |

It's like there's some kind of Chiefsplanet merit badge you earn for being the first one to declare that some young player sucks.
Congratulations! You're a miserable wet shit with the patience of a gnat and zero understanding of context. Hope that works out for ya. |

If he ends up being a bust, is drafting at the very end of the 1st round because you just won the Superbowl a good trade off for that pick being cursed for the Chiefs? I think so
