...and was Hill really a "true #1"? I think his size limited him in many crucial downs and he could disappear for stretches. I think a guy like Olave, who ran a surprisingly fast 40 could be a great #1/replacement due to his excellent route running. Art Monk ran a 4.5, Jerry Rice ran a 4.71, Larry Fitzgerald a 4.63...all were famously dedicated and learned were among the best route runners. None had Hill speed, but all could do many things Hill couldn't that made them as effective or more.

I'm well over Hill already. Don't really care why or how it happened. Moving on.

@ 6-1" and only 187 lbs i have serious concerns about Olave's ability to beat press coverage and not get re-directed in his routes.

Like it or not the edge rushers are going to be flying off the board simply bc of their value which will push the WR’s down the board.

Jermaine Johnson is being mocked as a top 10 pick, Karlaftis is going in the teens and Mafe is likely late teens.

I don’t care which one it is. If a true talent falls past 20 you use a 3rd and 4th to move up. If that’s Karlaftis? Cool. If that’s Wyatt? Sweet. If that’s Williams or Olave? Absolutely

Nope. I'm not wasting picks trading up for a WR coming off an ACL tear that weighs 180 lbs.

Trade up for a DE? Sure. I'm okay with that as long as Veach doesn't include the farm to get him.
[Reply]

That's what Jacksonville Jaguars are thinking too.
[Reply]

If you’re upset about a ACL then talk to the folks who want to take Ojabo and his fucking Achilles catastrophe
[Reply]

I woudln't have to trade up for that.

It's the trading up part that's giving people issues.
[Reply]

Who’s saying we should trade up for Ojabo though?

There’s a difference between standing pat and getting value with one of those guys and aggressively trading up.

I know this will be an unpopular opinion but what are the chances the rumors about Tyreek's 4-year, $85M extension (the JudgeReid tweet) were actually TRUE?

The timeline and circumstances fit in hindsight. He agreed to parameters with the Chiefs and then Adams' contract hit.
[Reply]

This.

The people that are okay with taking Ojabo...are good with taking him at 29 or 30. AND THEN drafting another DE in the 2nd to 3rd round.
[Reply]

I wouldn't AT ALL be surprised to see the Chiefs trade up. It's either that or they're going to have to really be even more frugal in FA.

They have 12 picks, including 6 in the first 3 rounds. This rookie class is going to cost a bit more than an average year.

When did 6'1" and 187 lbs in college become worrisome? Diggs, Chase, Cooper, Jefferson, Hopkins...all 6'1", mostly around 190-210. Olave's 21 yrs old, there is room for 10 more lbs of muscle in the next year.
[Reply]

Is there really a true #1 in Andy’s offense anyway??
[Reply]

I'd say it probably was.

It matches up too well.
