1. Kingsley Suamataia, OT, BYU - I can just as easily see Patrick Paul here, but I'm going to give Kingsley the edge because of his age. I also think a trade up for a LT is very possible, but I don't even try to predict trades.
2. Javon Baker, WR, UCF - compliments Rice and Brown perfectly. Might require a small trade up, but I have them getting him at 64.
3. Renardo Green, CB, FSU - the Chiefs are going to draft a CB, just a matter of when. Green is a great combination of need, fit, and value here in the 3rd.
4. Jared Wiley, TE, TCU - the Chiefs have been sniffing around TEs this year, and it feels like they will be taking one early on day 3.
5. Tyrone Tracy Jr., RB, Purdue - the former WR is an ideal replacement for McKinnon, and gives them a guy that compliments Pacheco very well.
6. Khristian Boyd, DT, Northern Iowa - productive small school guy that's worth a swing.
7. Giovanni Manu, OT, British Columbia - possible replacement for Smith here, or a swing T. Let him and Morris develop and it will sort itself out long term. [Reply]
We are pretty close. I had Kingsley too as well as Wiley but earlier. Also have a FSU corner but the other one. Javon Baker is one of 3 WR’s I’m considering rd 2. [Reply]
I know Irv Smith is only on a one year deal, but are we really looking at TE in this draft? Don't we have a couple of guys stashed on the PS that are capable (with Mahomes throwing to them, anyway)?
That's a minor quirk, really. I'd take that for sure. [Reply]

Do you see Suamataia as a lot better than other tackles that will be going in the 2nd? [Reply]
I'd be quite pleased with this draft, honestly. I think I feel very similar about the overall playout of it positionally and by round.
I do think if we don't go WR in round 1, we will make a move in the 2nd round to get a guy we like. I'd probably swap Wiley and Green by round but that's a matter of personal opinion that doesn't really affect much. [Reply]
