I'll be sick if Mahomes is on the board and we pass to take a corner.
2nd and 3rd rd CB's will be nice #2 CB's.
Awuzie, Conley, King, Jones. These are all #1 caliber CB's.
Looks like OLB or CB is the best talent on the board if we don't go QB. [Reply]

Because we are the Chiefs.
I'm starting to believe there won't be any to pass on by the time we pick. I think Watson, Trubisky and Mahomes will be long gone. Not amped about Kizer, Webb or Peterman. [Reply]
WTF do people think we need another corner? We have Peters, Mitchell, Nelson, Gaines, White. We're fine there. If they want a mid rounder then ok but it is way down on our list of needs.
We're drafting DT or ILB. We ignore offense. [Reply]

I like Q. Wilson or F. Moreau as better fits and better players.
Said no one ever, literally the dumbest thing I have read. Lattimore was targeted a lot throughout the season because no one knew if he would hold up. This was the only year he has been healthy enough to play. Nobody was throwing heavy at Conley. Lattimore was picked on early and often, which he answered the call. If anything, Lattimore and Hooker took stats away from Conley. Conley is not a top 20 pick in my opinion. After 20, I think he is a fantastic pick, he is fast, athletic and intelligent, and he is not afraid of contact. [Reply]
The need isn't there (we have a #1 in a league where maybe half the league can say that) and the depth is too great (there are capable #2 CBs that will be there in the 3rd round).
There is a zero percent chance we go CB in the first, IMO. [Reply]

Who would you take if QB isn't an option?
I would say pass rusher...preferably TJ Watt [Reply]

For what 4 games or so? Sorry, I can't get excited about a guy we picked up off free agency mid season. I hope he can handle it but if a good cb drops to that pick I wouldn't be pissed. [Reply]

ILB or even WR. DL and OLB would also be considerations depending on the talent. They're going to have DL shortage in a hurry and Dorsey likes to stay a year ahead. It's not a great draft for 5-techniques but if the right guy is there, that seems like a natural fit. [Reply]
