Idk if a repost, but from Peter King's FMIA

8:30 p.m.: Two picks left, including Kansas City at 31. Mayer on the mind in the draft room. “If KC comes back to us,” Ziegler said, “wanna do it?”

“Yes,” said McDaniels.

“Best tight end in the draft,” Kelly said.

Short conversation with KC. “Not gonna work,” Ziegler said. KC would have given 31 and 217 (sixth round) for 38 and 70, a net on the points chart of minus-147. “Too many players we like,” Ziegler said. (Ziegler, on Friday, traded from 38 to 35 with the Colts to snag Mayer, the tight end Vegas wanted above all.)

Raiders GM seems to be doing a decent job at drafting. This is his first complete draft and he landed some decent talent. That TE seems like a good prospect.

The Raiders (like most teams) aren't making any noise without a top tier QB. They now have a 9ers QB outcast and Chiefs fans will tell you how cast off 9er QB's turn out.

He immediately followed the comment up with “that was last year” and that he had no restrictions for a trade up in this draft….but later in the same pc said that the range they were talking to teams about moving up was as high as 18 because anything above that would be too expensive…and when you do the math of the charts going up above 18 would require a future first (or a second and third, which also wasn’t going to happen).

Amazing isn't it?

He also clearly stated it was a joke, multiple times.

King Rappaport reported that a drunken and disheveled Clark Hunt stumbled into the KC draft room on day 1 and demanded that Veach trade up to get Jalen Carter because “that kid got the hit and run dawg in him!” Clark was gently removed and ushered out by his daughter Gracie while a still animated Hunt said, “Get off me bish, you made for the streets!”

I like this completely made up story better than Direkshuns.

If it's true, it actually says a bit about how much they liked Uzi.

Because if they didn't like him a lot, they change that 6th to a 5th and at least try to close the gap. It's still a win but not a mauling. They didn't want to risk losing uzi for a mere 'win'.

It's why I said Veach didn't like Moore as much as some of you guys did - he demonstrated a willingness to lose out on him. And even after he traded down, but/for the immediate WR run, he was going to go with Cook.

You can tell how much a team likes a guy by the risks they're willing to take or what they demand in exchange for taking them. Veach and crew clearly liked Uzi quite a bit more than Foskey or White - otherwise they're not making those kinds of demands in order to risk getting one of them instead of him.

This literally doesn't make sense, unless it's a joke, which it clearly was. Clark Hunt is not getting involved in any type of personnel/draft capital decisions. He isn't Jerry Jones and gives 100% of the decision to Reid and Veach.
