Yeah Brian Thomas Jr is gonna go in the teens and I don’t think we’ll be able to pull off a trade that high.

I’m thinking a trade up for Tyler Guyton who is the ideal LT type and most scouts think he’ll have no problem playing LT.

There's nothing "desperate" about trading up if there's somebody that we love. And we actually are exactly a player or two away from the Super Bowl. We just went to the Super Bowl that we won in OT, and then we lost a couple of good players.

Last year around this time, Veach said there was someone in this draft they loved.

If they do trade up, it's not out of desperation.

There are times I wish we could force user subtitles on people. "Miserable ****" is an excellent description for Red Dawg.

I'm thinking the Chiefs will trade up, but not in the first round. There will probably be several decent WR still available at #32. We'll then trade up in the second round. Maybe with Arizona at #35. The Cardinals have pick #4 and pick #27 so we'll give them a 2025 pick as part of the compensation since they'll have already picked their biggest needs and with 11 overall picks will be willing to move a pick or two to next year's draft.

I 100% agree. I don't really understand the notion of saying we're not a team that is 1 or 2 players away. I think a team that has been there like us, consistently, is usually 1 or 2 players away from being there again. A team that hasn't been in the playoffs or is in a reset of sorts (a la Buffalo) is the type that maybe wouldn't be as apt to throw caution to the wind and go for broke on a superstar/stud. Teams like them need to fill multiple holes.

We have two really glaring holes... sure we need to always address depth but we don't need to fix it all right now. We're talking about going for a f'n 3-peat. If it costs me a 2nd and future 3rd to go up and get A guy, I'm going for it.

I was looking specifically at this list of players yesterday and thought to myself, no matter what we do in terms of going for broke for a guy, there's still options out there elsewhere to backfill with:

RB Boston Scott
RB Matt Breida

WR Tyler Boyd
WR Mecole Hardman
WR Odell Beckham Jr

OT Donovan Smith
OT Mekhi Becton
OT/G Andrus Peat

CB Adoree Jackson
CB Akhello Witherspoon

Move up for Fautanu or Thomas and worry about the rest as it comes. That's my 2 cents.

Eh, we can technically change them, but the user can instantly change it back, so it kind of ruins the fun.

U can change the names tho? :)

whoever the Bills are planning to use their first pick on

Furthermore, the Chiefs do stay at #32 and select a WR, IMO they'll definitely trade up for a potential LT Patrick Paul or Kingsley Suamataia

Mr. Brian Thomas Jr

I think we will get a OT, our top need either at 16 with a trade up or at 32 standing foot. Looking at it in more detail:

Trade up to 16 ideally for Bowers or if he’s gone for one of the five top tackles, if available [Alt, the 3 Fs, Latham]. If we can’t trade up for that value stick at 32 and pick the best remaining top tackle or WR if somebody really good falls that far.

We don’t need to reach for a WR. With brown, whatever we get from rice and hopefully signing Renfrew, we will have so much better a WR room than last year.

That has become one of my favorite draft day traditions, lol.
