Conversely, if you trade down you get more picks to be able to draft guys like Chenal, Conner, Danna, Sneed, Josh Williams, Jaylen Watson, Isaiah Pacheco etc.

I believe that if the Chiefs weren't hosting the draft last Spring they would have trade down a few spots for a day 3 pick

It's not about playing on it, it's the amount of time it gives you with the extension to keep it cheap.
