Like I don't think AT Perry or Johnathan Mingo are day 1 contributors because they don't come from pro friendly schemes.
I don't think they have to be day 1 contributors. The Chiefs will add a vet one way or another to go with MVS/Skyy/Toney.
If Hyatt is sitting there at 31, I probably take him barring Wright, Harrison, or an EDGE like Murphy falling into their laps. [Reply]

The whole thing gets kinda eh to me, like Rashee Rice isn't bad but he overlaps quite a bit with Skyy Moore in what they do. The best hope is someone drops a bit further than expected but if the Chiefs are sitting there choosing between like Dawand Jones and Jaylin Hyatt I'd probably go Hyatt. [Reply]

I think that's going to be even more true for RT when we're trotting out Niang and hoping a guy develops reeeeal fast. [Reply]

See I actually see Rice being more like Hyatt than almost anyone in the draft.
I don't see him as being like Moore - just a lower profile Hyatt.
If I could get my favorite DE prospect or one of those 'attainable' 1st round OT prospects in the 1st and then get Rice in the 2nd, I'd be a pretty happy panda. [Reply]
I think Xavier Smith could be an interesting late target, he's 5'9 but he's incredibly fast and versatile even though he's from a small school. [Reply]
I hate to say it but the more i think about Veach may be pretty happy with Niang and Taylor as starting tackles. Barring a major fail i think that pair needs less help than Brown and Wylie got down the stretch. Ive been talking myself out of tackle more and more at 31. [Reply]

With the way this offseason has been going based off of your posts....this might just happen. [Reply]

I'd be pretty surprised if I walked away from this draft too ornery. But then again, I don't think I walked away from the LAST draft too ornery (think I graded it a B+) and the consensus is still that I hated it so it is what it is.
There are a lot of possibilities and a lot of depth. I think we'll thread the needle pretty well whatever direction we go.

There are a couple of positions where I'd scratch my head...but at this point...I don't see myself getting all up in arms about what Veach does. [Reply]

Kincaid in the 1st would actually genuinely irritate the shit out of me.
But the reason I don't think I'll be irritated is I just don't see it happening. There were all sorts of lunatic scenarios thrown around last year as well that I didn't see as realistic possibilities that would've annoyed me greatly - none of them happened.
I don't suspect they will this year either. [Reply]

Noooo. Look I'm not saying take any RT at 31, I'm saying I think there are better WR options back of the 2nd or 3rd then at RT, and that our RT situation is worse than our WR one [Reply]

Then who are you wanting to go with because odds are the rest of those guys are gone. [Reply]
