Actual NFL teams disagree with your approach and are spending 1st round picks on interior OL. I think I will side with them over you. The NFL is changing. NFL defenses (obviously you have missed this) find the fastest path to the QB is straight up the middle (also why Chris Jones is about to get paid). The counter to that is having elite protection up the middle. |

I wouldn’t be opposed to a center
Wouldn’t be my first choice. Frankly I don’t care who they pick this year though |

The Chiefs have FAR bigger needs than to waste #32 overall on a center. CB, WR, RB and LB should all take precedence over a center in this draft, period. |

But the issue is Queen probably gone. Fulton gone. Henderson is soft. You can't force the issue just because you want a LB or CB. At that point I take the elite center, stack my offense more and see what the next round brings. |

This team lost games because of their lack of talented and effective running backs. The offense didn't perform nearly as well without Hill and Watkins while Robinson is maybe their 4th option at WR, who's only on a one year deal. If they trade out of #32, they can address RB, CB, WR and maybe LB but if they're stuck, they'll be missing out on a lot of talent in this draft. Drafting a center isn't a priority, it's a luxury and one the Chiefs don't have with only 5 picks. |

I would agree with Patrick on the positional value goes out the window concerning the offense. I would be so pissed if they pulled a true fan with Alex on the team because everything had to be a well oiled machine. Yes, CBs and LBs are an immediate need I even agreed, but that was before Mahomes got injured which changed said priorities. I'll be honest it's a point of hysteria for me. |

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 |

The issue with the Chiefs is Guard-Center-Guard is all held together with wire. One elite player added (especially center) and then the whole thing improves. Look at the Saints last year. I had McCoy as a 1st round pick he fell to the 2nd and the Saints snapped him up. They were able to run effective offense with crappy rag arm Bridgewater, Kamara, and Thomas. Why? Because they spend assets on OL. No matter what happens, IOL is a need. It improves the run game as well as protects our franchise player. |

The Chiefs biggest needs are CB, LB, WR and RB and it would be foolish to take a center at #32 overall, which is way far down the list of priorities. |

There is no ****ing way you're to convince anyone with a brain that a center should be the Chiefs first selection. |

Yea every mock draft I have seen he’s either projected to us or out of the first round. Bryce Hall falls to the second round. Patrick Queen is Projected 4 spots ahead of us to the Ravens. I can’t see Veach trading up
