Ruiz would have been an epic disaster had they chosen him and there's not a chance in hell they'd be sitting at 15-2. |
I don't have any insider info that backs up or contradicts that, so as long as we're shooting from the hip, I'll comfortably say they could have drafted Ruiz with the 1st pick. The buzz was there.
The Chiefs were absolutely looking to fortify the interior. We know they wanted Andrus Peat and offered him a fat contract. Ruiz would have been in character.
