Kansas City is trading its first-round pick Thursday night, along with three other picks in the 2021 and 2022 drafts, to the Baltimore Ravens in exchange for Pro Bowl OT Orlando Brown and one pick in the 2021 draft and another in 2022, per sources.

Also, I said that very early in the offseason. Since then, I’ve opened up to the possibility that the Chiefs had a change in philosophy. I argued as much with htismaqe if you think I’m full of shit.
I know it's already been said, but with that left side of the OL I expect CEH to feast this year. Been calling for them to go away from light in the pants pushovers on the OL and it finally happened. I'm not ready to say it will be a strength just yet, but as far as short yardage is concerned I also don't expect KC to be forced to pass the ball on 3rd or 4th and 1/goal because they absolutely have no chance at getting any movement from the OL.
Still think it's to be determined how Brown Jr will do in a more pass oriented offense, but I also think Mahomes will be able to manage just fine with his mobility in the pocket. [Reply]
