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.

Bingo
But if KC could somehow parlay that Rams 2019 2nd round with a 3rd this year to get into the top of round 2, that’s great. Doubtful, but would be nice. Going to have to use 54 to move up though. [Reply]
If we can come out of this draft with 2 good CBS that will be high quality starters and a safety to pair with Berry with only using next years 2 and this years picks...the draft is a homerun.
Opposing teams are going to need to score a lot and we really don’t have any corners besides Fuller.
Nelson and Amerson should be depth guys imo. [Reply]

Nelson is a fine #3CB or slot CB.
Amerson is just an unknown so I agree he should be considered depth.
You are very unlikely to get two high quality starter CBs from the draft, especially if you are thinking about this year. IMO, you just need one and then maybe a lower pick.
I fully expect Veach to draft a DL no later than the 3rd round. [Reply]
Amerson is an unknown AND he's only here for one season. I don't know what Veach is planning if he's not going to hunt for a CB or two with our first couple of picks [Reply]
Amerson is good one year and bad the next. That’s what he’s been lately. I’m hoping he has a good year and signs a big deal elsewhere and KC gets the comp pick. I don’t trust him to pay him. [Reply]
I will be shocked if Veach doesn't secure a starter with his first pick no matter where it is. He won't sit back and take the best player left on the board. [Reply]

we got our QB at the expense of the 2018 draft. Thus, time to think of next year and not be assfucked again to maneuver. The 2019 is ideal to sit back, and wait to cast in offers for more draft capital or trade up.
We have the QB finally don't ruin the future with short sighted bullshit. [Reply]

Philadelphia has no pick in rounds two or three, and the Eagles don’t pick until the end of round four. So as of now, they go from 33 to 129 without a pick. That’s why they’ll be trying to deal all night Thursday. If they stick … The Eagles have a 35-year-old left tackle, Jason Peters, coming off major injury, and starting guards (Stefan Wisniewski and Brandon Brooks) who will be 29 this season. Connor’s the perfect pick for them, in the unlikely event they stick.

Where could this come into play? Cleveland (four), Indianapolis (six), Baltimore (16), Seattle (18), New England (23, 31), New Orleans (27), Philadelphia (32). “This is not your typical draft,” said one veteran club official Sunday. “The second, third and even fourth rounds are gold. You can take less than the trade-value chart says and still make a very good trade if you get multiple picks in those rounds.”
A trade with Philly makes too much sense seeing as how Veach used to work with everyone there. 2nd, first 3rd and a 6th sounds fair to me. [Reply]

You've gotta be aggressive while you've got the QB on a cheap deal. They've already burned one year of it with Mahomes sitting, but that's gonna be ideal in the long run, so it had to be done.

Giving up their first rounder is sacrificing the entire draft? [Reply]

But they can't sit on their hands.
Exactly.
If this team is going to legitimately compete for titles in the next few years, now is the time to load up on top end talent in the draft and get some more impact guys and get them into the system ASAP. Coach them up and this team will win a title in 2019-2022.
Like I said, I’m not trading a bunch of picks this year ...and next years first is untouchable...but IMO everything else is on the table to load up this year.
This draft is too good and especially in the positions we really need. [Reply]
