In order to prevent us wasting precious years of Patrick Mahomes' career, Veach needs to work some magic this offseason. What's your advice for him? [Reply]

I'm really thinking that an Okung/Reiff short deal plus Little at #63 is now my personal plan A. [Reply]
I'm also not a fan of sitting a 1st or 2nd round pick that isn't a QB. IF you're taking a guy that high, he needs to play or be able to play early. [Reply]

What are you going to do, trade up into the teens and try to get a day 1 starter?
To do that, you'd have to trade next year's 1st most likely and then you have a 1st round pick that isn't sitting for a year, he simply never exists.

Well, if you can't mortgage your future to move up to pick a sure-fire day one LT in the top ten, then you are taking a high potential guy that might not be ready day one later.

I know, read my last sentence. My point was if you're gonna fork over 2 firsts+ for Tunsil(which is what it'd likely cost) you might as well send that same amt for a rookie-who is projected to be the best LT in the league. Like I just said though, neither is happening. [Reply]

It's kind of one or the other.
Or...hear me out...take a different position? [Reply]
