I will totally get behind whatever Veach decides, but my personal preference would be leaning towards a DE in round 1. Of course, we don't know how it shakes out and what have you, but that would be my preference. I think there are a couple of good options that seem like they might be there. [Reply]

I mean, look at Emmanuel Sanders. The dude is 33 years old and is still putting up 750-800 yards or more per season.
Yeah, I think Hill will age well. Main thing is keeping the pipeline of elite weapons pumping. Given the time it takes a WR to get up to speed in this system.. you need to think a few years ahead, IMO.
Now, maybe you can snag a guy like Marquez Stevenson a little later in the draft and develop him. Someone with the raw tools and upside.
I won’t complain if they take a T or DE at 32. I would be excited about Jaelan Phillips for sure. A T like Teven Jenkins or even Alijah Vera-Tucker (who can play LT, Rt, or G) would be a boon. [Reply]

Year 3 Hardman, year 2 CEH, improvements on the OL, and a rookie WR like Toney or Marshall would truly make this offense unstoppable.
Don’t forget Damien Williams. Every time CEH comes off the field right now there’s nobody out there that can be an efficient receiver out of the backfield.
Having that every down next year will kick this offense up a notch [Reply]
I wouldn’t count on Damien Williams because the guy is constantly injured, will have missed a full season (which could be good or bad) and he’ll be 29 years old to start the season.
It’s pretty clear that Reid doesn’t trust Darwin Award Thompson, so they need to beef up the RB room. [Reply]

Khalil Herbert from VTech is my guy at RB on day 3. [Reply]

It's going to be really, really hard for them to be active in free agency.
But yeah, that's exactly what I'm advocating. I'm really confused. You said we need "solid and reliable" in a draft thread and now you're saying to draft playmakers. [Reply]

I was talking to Dane about free agent WR's this season. They need to take a few fliers and try to hit some cheap type players in this years WR FA market which shoudl be deflated financially due to the amoutn in the draft and in free agency.
A solid albeit if unspectacular type of #3 or #4 type WR with some upside. [Reply]

They just signed Antonio Callaway who was excellent as a rookie and runs a sub 4.4. He would be an excellent replacement for Robinson who I think will get priced out of KC.
I still think we need a game changer though. The emergence of Danna and Wharton make DE not as big of a need, but I think it’s still important.
We need depth at WR and DE badly with so many guys not being reliable and also being FA’s. [Reply]
