I could see that. He's a great prospect.

I know OL is the immediate need but it would be nice to get a guy like Carlos Basham. He could very well be Frank Clark's replacement. Dude is a beast.

Replacement?

The Chiefs need a guy opposite of Clark, not his replacement.

Yes this. A duo is needed.

Jaelan Phillips and Clark with Jones and Wharton inside next year on passing downs?

With this secondary?

And Willie Gay in year 2?

Yea I’m praying that no combine keeps Phillips in our range. He could have the kind of impact that puts us back in the SB next year.

Sounds like Toney has the dropsies at the Senior Bowl. Anyone know if this was an issue at FL or not?

When I first started this thread in December I had a list of about 15-20 guys.

Just remembered Bolton, Humphrey, and Smith were all on it.

That makes it so much sweeter. Love it

Collins or Bolton just might be BPA.

The Chiefs, under Reid, have a history of drafting for future departures the following year. Remember, even CEH wasn’t supposed to be the starter this year. Replacing Hitchens is a lot on the mental side, so it’s possible that they could want to get ahead of it and draft their guy a year early. That way when Hitchens is gone, you have 2 good young LB’s. You could also play Gay and the rookie a lot more in subs so we don’t have to see Niemann on the field anymore and avoid Hitchens in coverage as much as possible.

Again, I agree that it’s unlikely, but it’s absolutely possible.

It was always to easy to see the logic in going LB early again, even if I didn’t think they actually would. This made even more sense as it was pick 58 as opposed to 31.
