Still, for as absolutely frustrating as Brown has been I'm grateful as fuck to the 49ers for outbidding us on Broke Back Trent Williams. That dude just can't stay healthy. At all. [Reply]

He did but he offered very little guaranteed money. He didn’t cave to Brown’s demands. So he tagged him and now Brown is betting on himself and not winning. The way I see it, he must have thought Brown was better than who was available or he felt Brown could improve in year 2. As such he attacked other positions of need. He is by no means perfect, but I do think far to many people are overly critical and forgetting it could be far far worse. [Reply]
The bolts stink because their big-name receivers are injured.
The bills are losing because their key secondary players are injured (at least, so claim their fans) .
The Chiefs lose corners, receivers, etc. and keep rolling because they aren't reliant on A guy or a couple guys at THOSE positions to win. Beach has, once again, cracked the code and has us firmly ahead of the curve. [Reply]
I would say these guys without a doubt are blue chippers drafted by Veach.
I’d say these guys aren’t blue chippers but “hits” that have done a good job for rookie contract players. You could also make a case for them being blue chippers:
Gay
Hardman
Smith-he’s close to being a blue chipper IMO
I think McDuffie, Karlaftis and Pacheco will be in this group soon [Reply]

need to include the HOF TE we have a trifecta in HOF Chiefs Kingdom [Reply]

Toss Creed Humphrey into that top group as well. Wait, I misread.

You seldom win trades when you trade quality for quantity but when your QB is Mahomes it worked well for both teams in KC and Miami. [Reply]

I'll add that Khalen Saunders has played well enough this year to warrant being called a draft hit. I know he's approaching the end of his rookie deal and he's only been balling out for a season, but the point is he eventually put it together. He didn't massively implode like Speaks and he didn't stagnate like Kpassagnon.
If we extend him or re-sign him for even another season and he continues to produce like this, he should absolutely be considered a solid draft pick. [Reply]
