I'd have Wilson above McMillan. I don't really like Rice but I'm not sure who there I'd have above him, probably Pearsall. I know everyone hates McConkey and I get it, but I'd have him higher. Maybe not for the Chiefs I guess.
I'd take a healthy dose out of there if it were the Chiefs only type of ranking.

01. Troy Franklin, Oregon
02. Brian Thomas Jr., LSU
03. Xavier Worthy, Texas
04. Devontez Walker, North Carolina
05. Adonai Mitchell, Texas (I am a bit concerned about his ability to separate in the pros but I think I hear enough outside voices that I'll trust more than my opinion)
06. Jermaine Burton, Alabama
07. Jalen McMillan, Washington
08. Roman Wilson, Michigan
09. Brenden Rice, USC
10. JaLynn Polk, Washington

Franklin does seem to really fit with Rice on the other side. You'd probably like to add a vet in FA that isn't necessarily just a deep threat, but the "chain moving" big catch guys are usually pretty decently priced in FA.

Take another flyer on a buy low type 2nd contract vet who's coming off a poor fit rookie contract that could make you some value.

Franklin and Worthy are probably the top of my list of who actually has a chance of being available.

I don't like Legette as much as I did. Watching the SR bowl, he seems a bit less explosive than advertised to me, but I haven't watched it all and that's a small sample.

I like the list! Lot's of draft heads are onto Walker, glad there's no injury concerns. 32nd pick is turning into kind of an awkward spot to take a WR IMO. I think 6 will go before us, Franklin will probably be one of them, and then maybe 6 again in the 2nd. At #32 we'll have our shot at one of guys with a question mark: hands, routes, health, or production.. then at the end of the 2nd we're already into the 4th or 5th tier of WRs. Burton is climbing up everyone's list it seems.

I think the Chiefs could either stay where they are or so a small trade up like Rice last year. This WR class blows last years out of the water in both top twenty and depth.

I think they're gonna take a lineman in rd 1 and then WR

OL or DL?

I don't really like an OL that early in taht I'm not sure any of the T's there are really LT's

I could see a small move up in the 1st for Franklin, Thomas Jr, or Worthy.

If we stand pat, I like Coleman, Legette, or Walker.

If we were going to trade up in the 2nd I'd target Burton or Polk.

If we stand pat at the bottom of the 2nd I'd target Rice Jr or maybe Thrash.

They don't have the picks to move up. There's no trading up this year.

Everyone really on the Worthy train? I would be super disappointed with Worthy in the first round. Obviously his top end speed is fantastic and would provide the Chiefs with an immediate deep threat but I feel like he is too much of a one trick pony. I don't think Worthy is going to command a ton of targets every week, and for a team who has an aging tight end, I think the Chiefs need to find a receiver who can handle more of the workload. Franklin to me would still give you a guy who can stretch the field but is going to be way more valuable in the short/intermediate areas of the field. Thomas Jr isn't going to stretch the defense as effectively but again is going to be more effective in a lot more situations.

Worthy is gonna splash but to me he is similar to Jameson Williams. A nice piece on the offense but is complimentary at best.

Way too early to make such a definitive statement - we don't know if they maybe tag and trade someone like Jones or Sneed (doubtful but still possible) or if they could trade 2025 picks, also doubtful but you never know.

Ah interesting, I can see the internal logic there.

Yeah I'm not that high on him. We do need a field stretcher, so he'd help there, but guys like Franklin and Thomas offer more - that's why they'll probably go earlier!

Ricky Pearsall apparently had such a good start to his Senior Bowl week that he got the call to end it early.

I'd include him in that group of 2nd rounders.
