Maybe I'd take a value play in the 4th. But we still need some DL help pretty badly, LB and TE could use some reinforcements. OL is going to need freshening up soon enough (or some very healthy contracts to be handed out). I just think there are likely to be better ways to spend that capital. Maybe not - if I take Tez Walker in the 1st and Jalen McMillan is sitting there in the 3rd, I'm gonna grab McMillan. But if I'm betting, I just don't think the board will fall that way. |

As much as I'd love a WR early...the DL spot is fairly dire here. We need some bodies in the middle there. Now maybe that's not worth that high of a pick and they can throw some #s at it, but still.

It's fun to speculate but we really don't know what we'll need until March. If they keep Chris Jones that changes shit. If they sign a WR in FA that changes shit too
I just want good players. I still like Felix but I'd rather not get a redshirt player next year |

Yeah, we can't really have a full redshirt yeah like that again.
Granted, where we pick it just is what it is. |

Couldn't resist. To be honest I get your later point re needing to fill other gaps with the picks. I just think I'm using FA to sort the DL largely so taking maybe a raw DT R2-3 is fine by me.
WR, even if we get an FA guy or 2 we're likely seeing MVS, James, Ross gone, maybe Toney, and Moore continuing to do nothing. There's a lot of guys there we probably should let go and we can get improve upon this draft. Guys like Washington and the other one Tajh I'm just looking for them to be solid depth and better than the current load of @ss. There's loads of guys like that I could see offering something. To be honest if there's a decent receiving TE or RB in R4-5 I'd be just as happy with that. Those groups need bolstering too. |

There's almost NO chance we don't bring in a vet as there's no way MVS is a Chief next year. You've got Rice, you've still got Kelce, there will be at LEAST one vet signing of significance and I'd be really surprised if we don't draft a WR in the first two rounds. You've got a guy that's a legit threat to put up 1,000 plus, you've still got Kelce, you'll have another vet in the room, and you'll have a rookie that will be at BEST WR3 (so to speak) to start with. So yeah, unless someone gets hurt, we won't be having a rookie go for 1,000 more than likely. It COULD happen, but probably not. |

If they bring in a vet, I'd be more inclined to maybe take a swing at Legette with his measurables the upside would be theoretically higher.
But even then.....I dunno that I'd sacrifice any future picks. |

IMHO, Brown or Mooney are the best fits to fill the field stretch role that will most assuredly be a gap if/when MVS is released.
I would like to see them take a shot at Hollywood. |

Draft Dudes took McConkey for us at 31 in their latest. Noted him as a sure handed, good route runner who would build quality chemistry with Mahomes. And they think Chemisty was a big issue for us this year.

McConkey is an intriguing WR that I think boosted his stock at Senior Bowl week but I don't think he is going to test very well. Right now in this draft cycle is where his stock is gonna be at an all time high, he's a good route runner who understands how to manipulate defensive backs to win. 1 on 1's at Senior Bowl week plays to his strengths, where McConkey's stock will fall is when he runs a 4.56 40 time. He's 5'11, 187 pounds- the main question is going to be can he survive over the middle in the NFL and make catches in tight windows.
Personally I don't think too much seperates McConkey from Pearsall, I think they are cut from a similar cloth. I just don't see how anyone can justify a round 1 grade on McConkey though, measurables matter and he just doesn't have them. |

I think they're 7 deep. I think Donovan Smith comes back, Thuney comes back and Allegretti stays while Wanya gets stronger in the off-season as the swing tackle. I don't really see IOL taken until day 3. I honestly would not be shocked at all if we took 2 weapons in the first 3 rds, one of which being a TE. |

Oddly usually players don't say anything about where they want to go..Brock Bowers was all like I want the Titans to pick me.
