If you don't know what The Trade is, just go away.

What do you think? This is a public poll, because we're going to come back in five years and revisit this day.

But a late 3rd and a most likely, a late 1st next year? No brainer.

Buffalo is dumb.

The Chiefs will most likely, move up and down tomorrow, as they have the ammo. This team was never going to draft 10 guys, as there isn't room on the roster but they're in a prime position to land a OLBer, ILBer, RB, CB and guard.

It's going to be a fantastic draft.
Stealing Ragland for a 2019 4th Round Pick was the icing on the cake of the 2017 acquisitions.

With 10 picks, trade ups were a certainty, because there aren't 10 roster spots available.

I'm ok with selecting Mahomes, I really am.

Value wasn't good though. At the very least, we shouldn't have had to give up that extra 3rd round pick this year.

Whatever, nobody wants to hear it.

Enjoy the QB selection.

The trade valus was about average, but hell you're 100% fine doing it when you get a QB for the next 15 years.

While I am sure Buffalo is thrilled to be a playoff team this year, they are going to majorly regret not taking Mahomes or Watson.

My attitude and take was simply, "take who you want, but step your ass up and TAKE ONE".

Just thought I'd close the loop on this.

Well, I'll confess that I wish my vote was different today. In my defense, I recognized the risk in this post earlier in the thread: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showt...8#post12844068

My dissenting vote was really questioning whether the Chiefs could have picked up another QB with their original pick (and that would've been Kizer given how the draft turned out), and then added a first and third round pick to the roster in addition. We'll see in the long run how it shakes out, but Mahomes is looking a lot better than Kizer right now. The Bills ended up drafting a CB and SS with their 2017 picks, which wouldn't have gone over well in Chiefsland.

The Mahomes pick is truly a franchise saver at this point. If he wasn't picked (or at least some quarterback wasn't picked), times would be be quite dire around here.

True. If Mahomes wasn't in the fold, I wouldn't care about the Chiefs future whatsoever. I would have totally severed my fandom just like I did in 2011-2012. (Gave up our Front row Season tickets after 22 years).

Wow that drops RainMan's opinions down in my rankings. Thought he was smarter than that.
