Assuming Jeudy, Lamb, and Ruggs are gone then you have

Jefferson
Shenault
Hamler
Aiyuk
Pittman

And those wr's are all close. Do you take the 1st in the bunch when similar talents go well into the 2nd?

This is the deepest WR class in history. I’d draft one in the second or third round

Those guys are all top end prospects. All do different things.

For the Chiefs probably want to avoid Aiyuk but you could make a case for any of the others (Aiyuk is a slot only but will be really nice at that).

Thornhill himself said he should be ready to go by training camp. So are you saying he's misinformed on his own injury?

I think he's a player, not a doctor.

Expecting to "be ready" by Training Camp, barely 8 months after an ACL tear, is very, very aggressive and I don't recall the Chiefs ever having that type of a quick turnaround with a torn ACL.

Hopefully, he's ready but I wouldn't count on it at this point in time, which is why I listed it fifth in terms of draft needs.

We still need a backup safety tho. We have watts and sorenson but we need one more

Yep your right he’s just a player, you on the other hand aren’t either one let alone him so you haven’t a clue what’s going on with his body.

What were our biggest problem areas last year? Coverage backer, RB depth, WR depth and at times pass rush.

I’m not sure OL was as big as a problem as some see and Beach already took actionable steps to fix it stealing Rankin.

Yay.

Rankin definitely looked legit in his short time as a starter and we can only hope that continues after his injury.

Depth and the lack of a true feature back really hurt them last year and if they'd had a guy, they likely wouldn't have lost to the Titans, Texans or Colts during the regular season.

Fortunately, they should be able to come away with a running back that can contribute immediately this season.

It would be a horrific waste of resources to spend the #32 overall on a center when the team lacks serious depth at CB, RB and Safety while also needing to address the linebacker position.

And passing on a WR in this draft class might be dumber than passing on a WR in 2014.

“They say I should be ready for camp. That’s always good news. But I feel like, for the most part, everything is going pretty well.”

I'm assuming "they" means doctors.

They can grab a wr or a rb in round two with good value. I’d rather try and get a couple of 2nds and add a 3rd or something anyway

I guess I would have to know what Veach his scouts and Andy think of how much better Cushenberry is than others in later rounds down the draft. Personally I don't like Reiter as a starter and can be replaced easily. I wanted to extend Wiz and let LDT walk as he is just not the same after the injury. Trade out of first and get some extra picks and work on this in later rounds. See how Rankin looks and if not going well as much as I hate to say it we may have to do some BV scrap heap magic once again and cross our fingers.

If he could be "replaced easily", he would have already been replaced. I shat on the guy for more than half the season. Then, he got better. The interior got better. And Reiter played almost mistake-free for the better part of the playoffs. No bad snaps, no nothing.

Right now, C probably isn't a priority.
