I think some trade ups happen but will just list players.
1. Tyler Guyton OT OU The man screams Chiefs. How athletic is he? He played H back at TCU. Size, athleticism, experience and scouts all believe he will have no problem playing LT.
Plan B: Kingsley Suamataia
2. Devontez Walker WR UNC-the Chiefs don’t have a legit outside WR with size and threatening speed. They need a guy to do what MVS did but with more potential. Walker is an exceptional player with a high ceiling who had 18 TD’s in his last 2 years. He may have had drop issues but so did Rice and we helped correct that. Defenses laughed at our deep threats last season and the Chiefs need to address it. He did sweeps, reverses and played in the slot at UNC so he’s not just a vertical threat. Big time weapon added for Mahomes.
Plan B: Xavier Legette
3. Jared Wiley TE TCU-Chiefs have been sniffing around TE’s a lot with this draft. I think Wiley is the best one for us.
4. Jarrian Jones CB FSU-Solid size and 4.38 speed. Played outside and in the nickel successfully. Also a very aggressive player in run defense. He allowed one of the lowest passer ratings in the nation while racking up 25 tackles, including five tackles for loss, a sack, three interceptions, including a pick-six, three pass breakups, and a forced fumble. This is a Spags pick.
5. Anthony Gould WR Oregon State-Electrifying speed. As fast as Worthy in the first 10 yards. 4.3 long speed. Can returns punts. Played outside at Oregon State so he’s got experience there. Here’s your Hardman replacement
5. Rasheen Ali RB Marshall-love his tape. He’s got size, speed and vision. He would be an excellent compliment to Pacheco. He ruptured his bicep at the S r Bowl so that will make a good player fall. Very good value.
7. Mike Novitsky IOL KU-needs to get a little stronger but he’s got excellent size and mobility. Can play C or G. [Reply]
I've tried to get on the Devontez Walker hype train. I just... can't. There are some things there I really like but there are more things there that scream to me that all he's ever going to be is MVS/DJ Chark quality and that simply isn't quite enough.
I think we'd have to at least jump Baltimore for Guyton, he's a perfect RT and that's honestly where I think he belongs. [Reply]
I'd go a different direction with the 3rd rounder (I don't see anything particularly enticing about Wiley; Tip Reiman in the 5th works just fine for me) but otherwise no complaints.
And I think you took Walker just to keep me at bay anyway... [Reply]

I’m not the highest on him. It’s more of what I think the Chiefs need and what they will do. Week 1 our pure outside WR’s are Watson…and? They badly need an X who can scare secondaries downfield.
They just don’t have anyone with speed that can play on the outside full time. I like Hollywood but that’s not him. I think the size/speed of Tez and Legette make it appealing.
Also the 3rd rd was the toughest one. Feels like Sweat could be the pick if he falls. Also feels like Caeden Wallace or Mahogany could be in play as future guards. Also feels like an IDL could be in play as well. [Reply]

I have not boarded that bus my friend. lol.
I just see Guyton as a RT and not a LT which is in union with the fact that I see Baltimore taking him to replace Moses.
If we took Guyton, I'd assume it was to try and convert him to a LT before converting Taylor to a LT but that's just my 2 cents. You never know what Reid is thinking. [Reply]
