They have a glaring need at cornerback and the top cover men will be long gone by the time they are on the clock if they stay put at No. 54. They need to get into the range of picks 35-40 in order to secure a Day One starter at that position, and many around the league expect them to make that happen.
I have always thought, especially ever since Veach made that comment about trading up, that it is just a question a having a CB he really likes fall a bit and having the opportunity to trade up.
Veach definitly needs to pick up a top CB from this draft, after having traded Peters. [Reply]
They are talking about trading up from the bottom to the top of the 2nd round. They don't usually trade a player to do that. Their second pick in the 3rd round would probably be enough, maybe throw in a 6th. [Reply]
CB and DL are the 2 biggest immediate needs right now. However...
I think they're going to trade up into the beginning of 2nd rd and select OG Will Hernandez. Fisher, Hernandez, Morse, LDT, Schwartz would be a fine OL wk1...assuming Morse's bitchass can stay healthy.
I think right now, the Chiefs main goal is to protect Mahomes and give him ALL of the weapons and protection he needs for him to immediately successful, because the Chiefs need him to be. [Reply]
