Humprhey and Smith were good grabs. Tonga is at least a solid rotational NT.

I think you're going to have a much better 2022 draft though.

Breece Hall looked really good before he got hurt.
Karlaftis is going to be good, I think.
Moore, we'll get a read on him next year.
Travis Jones looked better and better as the year rolled along. I think he's going to be quite good for you as he gets more experienced.
Cross got a couple starts this year. Give him some time, he might turn out.

There's at least a handful of guys in the draft forum I wish would join in on this. It'd be pretty cool IMO.

Rainman, your inability to fix the DT spot is going toe-to-toe with mine hahaha.

You might need to swing for the fences at LB a couple of times.

Fix your QB spot and get those 2 things up to snuff and I think you'll be right back on track.

It's actually never been a problem in the past. I'd drafted Star Lotolelei and Brandon Williams and Andrew Billings many years ago, and had some other spot players who were good backups. But then everyone aged out all at once, and I cut Brandon in preseason when I thought he was out of football. The cupboard went bare fast.

My draft needs this year are:

1. Quarterback. I'm screwed.
2. Defensive tackle
3. Outside linebacker.
4. Cornerback
5. Maybe inside linebacker if Dean doesn't step up.
6. Wide receiver.

I have a lot of holes to fill this year. Hopefully the Chiefs pick up some free agents in these areas to help me out.

On #1 I'd say maybe, maybe not.

Maybe Sean Payton works some magic with Russ (doubtful) but that said...

If Hendon Hooker is within range, that's the guy I'd take a huge swing on. All 4 years he got snaps he was over 60% completion percentage and that grew each year to 68 and almost 70% the past 2 years as a starter. He's had a combined 5 Ints over the past 2 years. He's athletic. He can make all the throws. He's 25 but he just might be the best QB in the draft if not for that ACL tear. Age works against him more than injury IMO.

That's one thing I don't spend any time or energy on. I have no interest in the college game or trying to follow players at that level. After the super bowl, I'll start reading mock drafts and such to try to get an idea of who I'd like to see the Chiefs take a shot on in the first or second rounds but after that I have no preferences or clues.

So this is probably not the fantasy game for me.

I get that.

I'll note, though, that I started this in part to see if I could outperform the then-Chiefs management team with only a single draft magazine. I don't follow college football at all.

But I find it fun to start reading about the players pre-draft and make my picks. It's kind of addictive once your team differentiates from the real Chiefs.
