My very first Mock on a simulator...

If you havent tried it, its WAY harder than you think.

29 Mafe Edge - huge run on edge. Mafe/Ebiketie left
30 Watson WR - Again, huge run. Wanted Burks who went 28. Watson/Pickens

50 Winfrey DT - Beast, position of need. Winfrey/Mathis
62 Williams Edge - Need two, happy he was there. Williams/Paschal left

94 Chenal LB - To good to pass, LB now solid. Chenal/Anderson hard to decide
103 Dulcich TE - Stud, learn from best TE EVER, insurance for Kelce

121 Diesch OT - Starter day one at RT. Niang can be swing T
135 Philips WR - Underrated wr, security blanket, next Renfrow.

233 A. Anderson Edge - Way to good to pass up here. Risky but its 233.
243 Noah Ellis DL - Great value, also position of need. Immediate rotation
251 Kevin Harris RB - WOW, this has to be the guy Veach is thinking about.
259 Luke Wattenberg IOL - back up C/G He can play.

I felt really good about this but I completely whiffed on CB and S!! Every round I thought I could get one later but NO!
ITS WAY HARD! But SO FUN!

I like this one...a great haul. I probably would have gone "best corner" (Zyon McCollum) at #103, but Dulcich is still a good addition. I would probably have taken Anderson at #94, but Chenal is a good player as well. Adam Anderson at 233 I like, and I like Ellis to make the team in 2023. Good work!

Thanks Man! It is much harder than it looks. I was shocked that I couldnt or didnt land a CB.
I LOVE Anderson at LB, that was a tough one for sure, just had to give the slight edge to Chenal. Id be happy with either.

Im worried about Kelce or not having anyone behind him. I think Dulcich would be amazing and solve a REAL problem.

Just wanted to revisit this following the first three rounds. For critical needs, I think we still need a DT. The chiefs may consider another 1-2 WR critical as well to provide continuity into 2023.

To challenge bubble players, we need:
1-2 Edge (depending on internal assessment of Kaindoh and prospective veteran signings)
1-2 CB
0-1 S (depending on the assessment of Bush as a roster lock vs bubble)
0-1 OT (depending on the internal assessment of Wanogho)

Anyone else see roster gaps that need increased competition? Any differences of opinion on roster locks versus bubble players?

QB: P. Mahomes, C. Henne, S. Buechele, A. Gordon
RB: C. Edwards-Helaire, R. Jones, D. Gore, B. Knox
FB: M. Burton
TE: T. Kelce, N. Gray, J. Fortson, B. Bell, 5 other guys
WR: J. Smith-Schuster, M. Valdes-Scantling, M. Hardman, S. Moore, J. Gordon, C. Coleman, D. Fountain, J. Watson, C. Powell, G. Jennings, O. Bayless
OT: O. Brown Jr, G. Christian, A. Wylie, L. Niang, R. Johnson (OG?), P. Wanogho
OG: T. Smith, J. Thuney, N. Allegretti
OC: C. Humphrey, A. Reiter, D. Williams

DE: F. Clark, G. Karlaftis, M. Danna, J. Kaindoh, M. Herring, J. Woodard, A. Edwards
DT: C. Jones, D. Nnadi, T. Stallworth, T. Wharton, K. Saunders, C. Broughton, L. Neal, D. Stills
LB: N. Bolton, W. Gay, L. Chenal, J. Carter, E. Lee, D. Harris
CB: L. Sneed, T. McDuffie, R. Fenton, D. Baker, L. Barcoo, D. Bootle, B. Dandridge
SF: J. Reid, J. Thornhill, B. Cook, D. Bush, Z. Anderson, D. Key

ST: T. Townsend, H. Butker, J. Winchester

Bolded guys I see as pretty much locks.
QB(0) - Probably not unless Howell falls to the 5th and they just see a nice value for a longer-term backup they can flip for more later
RB(1) - I don't doubt they add a guy to this stable, especially a guy that has some speed and can catch
TE(1) - Not a guy on this roster is capable of replacing Kelce in the event of a catastrophe and there are at least 4 on the board now that are better prospects than anything we have.
WR(0) - They have plenty to pick from plus UDFAs, so I'll be surprised unless value slaps them squarely in the face.
OT(1) - 2 guys on 1-year deals and Niang's future is up in the air.
OG(0) - They'll have depth from the tackles spot or can hang onto a guy like Johnson
OC(0) - They're good.
DE(1) - Could definitely use another guy but there's not much left on the vine. Might end up filling this with a FA.
DT(0) - As much as I'd like one, they don't "need" one. Might have their eyes on the future though.
LB(0) - This is a very solid stable now.
CB(1) - Definitely need at least one more and could use some UDFAs to compete too
SF(0) - Don't see much need except UDFA camp fodder.

Not mocking you here with that, lol. Just a pretty solid take when everyone and their mothers were expecting us to take a receiver and not even sniff a corner.

I laughed during the entire first round. That also could have been because I kept seeing Superturtle’s picture.
