There was an article on Andy’s affinity for long arms in linemen with a lot of telling data. I’ll see if I can find it
Theres a ton of guys this year with short arms.

Seems like that's a non-starter for the Chiefs.

But it does seem like they really like Jenkins, so who knows?

Maybe. Then again these guys went against everything we thought they believed in last year when they drafted a RB and LB in the first 2 rds

Yep. Radunz only came in at like 33-1/8 or something like that too. Weird year.

See, this is where I've kind of always been on this and why I've been so vocal about it...

I don't think they're legitimate enough to pass up a LT altogether but in my mind, there's just NO WAY I trade up in this draft for a LT. The only one really worth it is Sewell and that would cost us more than we gave up for Mahomes. I just can't say that's a good idea.

It just shows me that screaming “OT at #31 or we suck” is stupid. There is no sure fire starter that we are getting at #31. Your best bet is sign a stopgap, find your best 3 OTs in the first two rounds and go get one of them. Whether that’s at #31, or trading back, or trading up in the 2nd or finding a guy at #63. No one is coming in day one and locking this position down. It’s just not happening.

And I love how everyone knocks a player like Niang or Little for not playing football in a year (yes I get they had injuries as well) but they won’t to blow two first round picks to get Sewell....who hasn’t played football in a year.

Sewell is 20 and could legitimately be an Orlando Pace type LT so I get the want.

Kind of similar to J Chase.

Well you’re going to have a hard time finding a LT at 31 that meets all of those requirements...

It’s almost like we’d be better off signing a stop gap, going elsewhere at 31, and taking somebody like Little or Forsythe on day 2....

The more I look around, I might be more inclined to do that. But I also would just play him this year. With Thuney next to him, I think they could coach him up.

Or we trade up for a Teven Jenkins like Nate Taylor projected (assuming he’s in range). I think Nate has good info.

Idk why but I see Jenkins as a Steeler. I don’t think they pass on him

You should have seen Rashawn Slater vs. AJ Epinesa. I saw it more than once.

Slater struggles with long, lanky DE's. That's why people think his best position in the NFL will be on the inside.

Has Jenkins had his pro day yet?
