Ok, I do not know what the hold up with Sneed is but, I have a feeling the CHIEFS are going to keep him and offer a new contract, just a gut feeling.
If WE do trade and get what you suspect then by all means move up and get Taliese Fuaga. If it does not work out, then keep the draft capitol and get Worthy or BPA and try to get Leggett or Ladd in the second? If no WR in the first? :-) Just a crazy situation right now and uncertainty seems to be the norm right now. Just my .02

Fautanu has great feet and athleticism. He’s definitely a higher floor prospect than mims. I like fautanu. Mims ceiling is higher than his and Mims moves great for his size. Mims has the wingspan of a 7 footer. Mims comp is a more athletic Orlando brown. The question with Mims is can he stay healthy. I’d be happy with either. I’m just hopeful we address LT with our first pick. Mike is still my favorite but I’d be happy with other guys. Paul looks too leggy to me. His height comes from really long legs and I’m afraid that it’ll impact his balance in the nfl. I’m not sure who he’s faced at Houston but the talent he will face in the nfl will challenge him with those lanky legs.

I looked at some Mims videos to compare, and Mims just looked slow. Paul looked a bit quicker than Mims, but still not close to Fautanu. The Combine video of Fautanu backs up what you see on film.
