Was just told the following: "Chiefs looking at 1 offensive player (WR), 1 defensive player on current rosters to acquire with draft picks. If nothing materializes, they are looking at a WR with one of the 2nd round picks."
Here's what I would do:
PUNT ON 2019 round 2.
Bundle both picks to Patrick Peterson, get him a new deal that keeps him in KC for 4-5 years.
Basically your 2019 Round 1 and Round 2 picks become Frank Clark and Patrick Peterson, which is bold and strong when you are in a win-now mode and not wanting to waste Mahomes' best/youngest years.
Use remainder of 2019 drafts to solidify the back-end of your roster, create more competition.
Draft nerds will hate this move, but it's logical. [Reply]

What happened to that link you posted before? [Reply]

100%....time to win now and still be built for several years.
Draft picks are just that...draft picks. Give me the proven commodities right now. [Reply]

Why cut your window to a couple years followed by a legitimate rebuild when you can extrapolate it forever with 0 rebuilding years by learning to draft well and pay the right guys.
So short sighted but whatever. If they do this and things don't work out everyone will be stuck picking up the pieces of this mess.
Dude.. you are one Negative Nancy... Life is full of “what if’s”... let this play out till you shit on everything... who knows, I may join you if this turns bad..
Plus ..MAHOMES!!! [Reply]
I don’t have any problem trading multiple 2’s for Patrick Peterson.
Yes we would lose compensation, but I don’t think Sammy Watkins is here in 2020. I think we will try to recoup for that trade by drafting a receiver tomorrow and trading him to a new team that will offer him a new deal. [Reply]
