Rule: You can change your answer up until next Thursday!
This might be the toughest year yet for this. I can see so many different possibilities, especially considering that I think there's a solid chance the Chiefs trade up.
Edit: It's draft day and I'm changing my pick!
Amarius Mims, OT, Georgia
There's way too much smoke about the Chiefs trading up and/or them targeting a LT. I'm going with a guy that I think could make it into our range, who also has the kind of upside that would have Veach itching to make a move to go get him. [Reply]
It wasnt left tackle play that cost us over and over and over again last year. It was receiver. I hope Veach keeps that in mind. Especially if they anticipate Rashee out for much of the year. Do not want to go on the road twice again in the playoffs. [Reply]

I’ve heard rumors that the mods have power to change a posters screen name. Not sure if true, but if DM Bob Dole and see what his determination is.
Also for the record I’m going Aidonia Mitchell. And we trade up in front of the Bills to get him, which again sends the Bills war room into a frenzy as he was their pick. [Reply]

Sure, but this team was toast until Smith came back. If you are trading up, its to protect Mahomes, your biggest investment, for the long term. You can figure out WR. The problem with last year is that we thought we had something in Skyy Moore and Toney, and we ended up not having shit. We also thought we had a vet in MVS. We were bad at WR because we placed too much hope in guys who have never really done shit. [Reply]

So the Chiefs stay put at 32 and take Jordan Morgan, OT - Arizona.
I don’t think Morgan fits their idea of a LT… arms aren’t long huh enough. [Reply]

I'm just the opposite. I'd be happy if we got him at #32.
But then I watched a bunch of his college games, combine workouts, and Senior Bowl practices and know how good he is, instead of just making uninformed stereotypical assumptions. [Reply]
The more mocks I do Mims seems to be going in the ballpark of 20-26. NFC teams own the 22nd, 23rd, 24th, 25th and 26th picks which is good news. I think pick 22 or 23 is where Veach is trying to get. [Reply]

But my call if we stay at 32? Mitchell, followed closely by Coleman. Jordan Morgan if we go OL.
Calling my shot for the guy who 5 years from now will be overwhelmingly viewed as the best player in this class regardless of position: Malik Nabers
I really don’t want the Chargers to draft Nabers. They will if they’re smart, though.
