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.

You realize that draft trades are mostly discussed the 2 weeks before the actual draft, right?
Dorsey said after the draft last year he had the deal with Buffalo in place well before the draft even started.
I think that’s why info is leaking that KC is looking to move up for a corner. [Reply]

You do understand we don't have a 1st round pick this year? So we are at the mercy of the flow of the draft for 53 picks. The Chiefs have to see how it falls no matter how much discussion which includes teams prior FA and trade deals.
As I said before this is a very PUBLIC deal this isn't a silent gentleman's agreement, it's going to be a bidding war. [Reply]

Clearly understands what a bidding war is. [Reply]
I assure you they will have a deal in place and I’d make a wager we move up to 32 for Phillys pick and take Jackson, Hughes or Oliver...unless Daniels is still on the board.
If Daniels slips to the end of the first, I’d love to see them move up to get him.
That kids gonna be a perennial pro bowl center/guard and is PERFECT for our system. He can fight in a phone booth or get to the perimeter. [Reply]

Yes.
What talent is so amazing at CB, in the late first, that we want to thin an already thin draft for the Chiefs? It's not a "final piece of the puzzle"-year for the Chiefs anyway; they have at least two more drafts and FA periods after 2018 to reach that point. [Reply]

I honestly don’t think any team in any draft would want to give up much less than draft chart value. If we wanted to move from 54 to 32, we’d need 590 points.
In addition to our 2nd rd pick, our first 3rd, a 6th and a 7th is the closest we could get to that value. Would you consider that overpaying? [Reply]
