We’re going to move up for a LT.

There are legit Notre Dame prospects that we could take this year and I’d be good with it.
Aaron Banks, Daelin Hayes, Tommy Tremble, Adetokunbo Ogundeji and Robert Hainsey. |

Those first rounders are so valuable we took a running back with one last year......**** Oh well.
Anyway, Veach doesn't seem like a "low ceiling high floor" gm at a spot like LT. They may be forced to be, but Cosmi trading up seems like a much better option to me. |

Little, Radunz, or Brown all have more upside, I agree.
Eichenberg is probably most ready to go right away, but is probably just a solid player. My preference would be to sign a stop-gap and go for the guy you like with the most potential. I could see arguments for any of those 3. |

I highly doubt Veach is going to cut an above average left tackle and go hard after a HOF tackle while showing zero interest in other average free agent offensive tackles....only to settle for a barely average type upside pick at LT that he will expect to protect his golden boy the next 5 years.
No way that happens. That’s not what Veach has shown to do in the past. Veach is going to let his nuts hang and move up for a stud LT unless a couple guys he likes just fall in our lap. |

And what team is going to trade from in the top 15 to 31 and not try and rape us on value? |

Veach knows how much that selection means. This is the selection that will protect Mahomes for the next decade or more. He’s not looking to get by “cheap”. |

What would it take to move up for a guy like Sewell

I’d be just fine using next years first to move up to the teens if a guy Veach sees as elite is there and the opportunity presents itself. |

Eric Fisher was the #1 overall pick and didn't last a "decade" here. The whole "decade or more" line is complete bullshit. |

It took a first and a third, plus another first to move from 27 to 10.
So if you’re looking at getting up in the 12-15 range....it’s probably around that....if not more. |

We don't have enough picks to get there.
We might be able to get CLOSE to Slater or Darrisaw but it's going to be mega-expensive. Our best bet is the low 20's and a guy like Sam Cosmi. Otherwise, we're likely stuck a 31. Every team in the NFL knows we need a LT. We're going to get ****ed hard. |
