And he shouldn't be one either. Having Hardman is a luxury but if we lose Sammy we need a big X receiver to replace him.

And no, Pringle isn't the guy either. Robinson currently backs up Sammy.

All of THIS

I could get on board with Dobbins at 32.

Dobbins, Swift or Taylor at #32 would be fine with me, although it seems like CPer's don't mention Taylor in that same breath.

Is that because he plays for a team that isn't on national TV every week or am I unaware of issues with him?

Taylor has fumbling issues and a crazy workload at Wisconsin. It knocks him down a tick for me compared to the other two.

Swift is the most versatile. Dobbins is the most dynamic zone runner. Taylor has the best home run hitting ability.

All really good, just in different ways.

Taylor's size and speed are his most appealing aspects to me. I realize he's had nearly 1,000 touches at Wisconsin but the guy hasn't missed a game due to injury.

I hadn't heard about his fumbling so I'd imagine that's a bit of a concern, although I'd like to think that Reid, Bienemy and Deland McCullough could help him to eliminate those mistakes.

I really like Cam Akers as well and wonder if the Mock Draft guys are sleeping on him because he looks closer to a mid-2nd rounder than a 3rd round guy, at least to me.

Watch for a day three pick at running back in Antonio Gibson from Memphis. 4.39 speed and elite pass catching ability. Perfect fit for our pass first offense.

Gotta love that size at 6’2 225, Mahomes wouldn’t have to look very hard to spot him running down the seam

Wheel routes all day long with that kid with Kelce over the middle, Tyreek going deep, and Sammy on a deep post.

I love this pick!

It is very likely that the 4th best WR in this draft, or at least the 4th taken, will be Justin Jefferson.

In fact, some mocks have him going as the SIXTH wide receiver.

I cannot stress enough what a goddam ****ing STUD that guy is.

If for some screwed up reason he fell to even the 20s I would want the Chiefs to trade UP to grab him.

No linebacker in this draft is as good as him and that includes Isiah Simmons but only because I think Simmons isn't really a linebacker. And Simmons is going top ten anyway, maybe top 5.

Anyway that's how good this receiver class is.

Yeah, if Jefferson and Aiyuk and Dobbins and Swift are sitting at #32, I could see Veach moving back a few slots, especially if one of the QB's have dropped, to grab one of those four guys.

Any of those guys would make for an outstanding selection and it's just a damn shame that the Chiefs won't have a chance to get a pair of them.

I like Akers more than Taylor. I am leery of a RB with that much wear on the tires in college.

I'd really like one of the top 2 or 3 ILB"s to be there at 32, but thats not likely.

Yeah but that freaking speed!

And he's a great inside runner, which would really wreak havoc against opposing defenses because there's no way any defense could cover Mahomes, Hill, Hardman, Watkins, Kelce and Taylor.

They could run RPO's for days and would be absolutely insane.

There's a WR from Michigan, can't remember his name, that tested off the charts athletically. He was with Patterson at QB who was awful, so he might be a worthwhile pick in round 3 or 4.
