I don't know why I didn't think of this before, but the Chiefs just need to increase their percentage of 2 tight end sets, but not decrease their passing percentage.
I would be amazed if defenses still played 2 deep shells against that kind of formation. [Reply]

I'm just not an Okung fan. I'd rather draft someone in the first or second and play him at LT> [Reply]

That’s the thing though...
Okung is always hurt.
If you sign him, the rookie needs to be ready to play anyway...so just rip the bandaid off, let the kid play next to a really good LG that will help him snd spend that 7-10m on another position that can either
help Mahomes score points
or
keep opposing teams from scoring (Houston) [Reply]

Or just sign someone else then, it doesn't have to be Okung.
There's all kinds of possibilities. No need for tunnel vision. [Reply]

They're not trading up into the top 7-8 for a tackle. That's what it would take to get Sewell.
The gap between Slater/Darrisaw and Cosmi/Eichenberg isn't worth it.
