Secondly, wasting a second round pick on backup tackle is insanity. This draft is loaded with players that can start immediately or at the very least, rotate, whether it's Running Back, CB's and OLBer's, not to mention Tight Ends. A second rounder needs to contribute Day 1, not sit on the bench in case of injury.
Third, the Chiefs need to nab a QB like Mahomes, Peterman or Webb. Watson is an RGIII clone. He can't read defenses, has a slight build, misses wide open receivers and takes off and runs far too often. He'll be broken in two if he does that in the NFL, just like RGIII.
And finally, Eric Fisher and Mitch Schwartz will not renegoitate salaries just one year into their deals. That's lunacy. Same for Ron Parker. You're going to give Eric Berry $25 million guaranteed yet take money from Parker? There is absolutely no chance in hell that his agent allows that to happen. None, zero, nada, zip.
Demetrious Harris is still a work in progress and is undoubtedly the 2nd best tight end on this roster. He's cheap. Ross Travis has a looooooooooong way to go, as does O'Shag's (whom I've lost all confidence). I expect the Chiefs to draft another TE, which will push either Travis or O'Shags off the roster but not Harris. He's a valuable Special Teamer and late in the season, came up with big plays.

Conley is what he has always been - a classic underachiever. He's the same guy he was at UGA. Giant leap? I don't see it. He can run a comeback and a go route but that's it. He isn't good enough in my opinion.
Dawkins is a stud. Whether he plays guard it tackle, it doesn't matter. He is great value there. You won't find an MLB that is better value there.
Watson has a lot more heart than RG3. He has also played in bigger games and made bigger plays in bigger moments. His college career has been more like Russell Wilson's senior year if you really want to compare.
You don't understand about Fisher, Schwartz, and Parker. They get less money in 2017 but more guaranteed money overall. They aren't losing money. They would Jump at the chance to restructure and we can afford it.
I somewhat agree about Harris. He is the perfect back up for Kelce and I didn't want to cut him. However, I do think O'shonessy is a better blocker who can match Harris's production.
