He can start at SDE, and inside on sub packages, hence the appeal.

Don't think he's taking Ingram's job day one.

Oh I meant long term.

But even them, Ingram didn’t play as much on early downs. You’re better off saving him for passing downs if you can.

He’s a guy that kind of gets lost in the discussion, but he’s another good prospect that could be available at 62.

I think he’s a SDE that can slide inside and absolutely wreck havoc on the interior.

Totally agree, I've seen much less talk of him but he looks very useful. I absolutely think there's a good chance he's there at 62.

Interesting!

I have this feeling that if Johnson or Karlaftis fall to the upper 20's Veach is going to send a 3rd someone's way and move up. 23 to Arizona seems like a destination spot that makes some sense. A 3rd or equivalent has gotten teams from 30 as high as 21 in the past but I'm not so certain Belichek is the one to do it without trying to fleece more.

I'd be happy to use one of those 3rds to move up and grab the right DE.

I'd be more happy still to see the right DE fall to us at 30 and then use one of those 3rds to move up from 62 and snag the right complement to said DE taken at 30.

A 3rd rounder moves us up 12-14 spots in the 2nd. It moves us up 4-6 spots in the first.

With just a little luck in the first, we can REALLY do some damage in the 2nd and put ourselves in awfully nice shape for a guy like Bonitto or someone who has the inverse traits/productivity matrix to the guy we take in the 1st.

I'd sure like to have that 3rd in my pocket still come round 2.

ESPN mocked us Mafe today.

So we got 1 guy on the list, and another that I took off because I thought we no longer had a shot at him.

"J Williams averaged 19.9 yards on his 79 catches last season and had 15 touchdowns."

Would be amazing in KC.

Maybe in a couple of years. He's going to miss the offseason at the very least.

We need immediate impact from our high picks, like we got last year.

Here we go again.

You guys thinking taking Williams at 30 would be a mistake is hilarious.

He’s a likely top 10 pick without the injury and would help us win playoff games at a cheap rate the next 5 years. He or London would provide this offense with as much or more impact than almost anyone in this draft.

It's about immediate return on a 1st round pick. You're getting none if you take Williams. There are also zero guarantees he's the same player when he returns. He also best fits playing flanker, which Hill already plays. It's mostly a sign you're planning for life after Hill, not in conjunction with. Many of us in the "other camp" find it could be a rather big mistake to draft him and if that comes to fruition it won't be hilarious.

London is a completely different story. He's going to be available this year and better fits the split-end position the Chiefs actually have a need at.
