Did you seriously compare Nick Bolton to Kawika ****ing Mitchell?

Your problem? You listen to the AP Nerd Squad and give them too much credit on what they know.

They’re sold as hell on the third day of the draft. They were not happy with the Humphrey pick. I differ from them on those scores. |

I don’t think he’s necessarily wrong in some parts of that post, but as with the draft and a roster like KCs, like it or not, it’s not all about this year.
The draft is a multipurpose exercise. Add talent and fill some needs for sure, but also looking forward financially plays a part. The chiefs need a long term center and they got a great one. I’m not a Bolton fan but that seems to be a “we didn’t think this guy would fall this far he’s bpa” pick. The rest is fine or about what you’d expect. I would have liked to see a wr or de sure, but the value needed to match up. It didn’t seem to and in the end, you have andy Reid to coach up wrs. I think DE is a spot you’re gonna have to take pretty early next year so patch it up and go from there |

It is harder to find a starting DE than it is to find a starting center, or linebacker. Players with very good skill sets at those positions were sitting there when we opted for low hanging linebacker fruit. |

I was meh on the Bolton and Kaindoh picks the day of the draft but even I can see why they were taken. Hitchens is gone after this year now and I’m happy that he will be. Kaindoh is much better against the run and I think he has some upside in zone coverage.
Kaindoh is all about measurables and if Daly can unlock the potential. We all freaked out when they took Danna and he wasn’t dog shit at least. I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt when it comes to an athletic freak at DE. I would have liked to have seen Marshall or Basham at 58 but Marshall’s medicals obviously were a factor and Basham, I think, was an afterthought after the Reed signing. They want a DE...not a DE that they have to move inside on pass rush downs. We already have three pass rushing DTs now. You can bet that DE is the first round pick next year for sure. |

Outside of that, if it’s at the top of your priority list and the determining factor, you’re overthinking it. Also, I assume you’re talking about Terrace Marshall for example. He clearly had medical concerns that the Chiefs and other teams weren’t comfortable with that early, should the Chiefs have taken him anyway because he’s a ****ing WR? That’s just dumb. Yes, LB and C aren’t the most valuable positions, but Humphrey and Bolton were considered late 1st to early 2nd rounders going all the way back to last year. At 58 and 63, that’s VALUE. |

I actually think Danna will be a good rotational DE. Same with Taco. And, by Year 2, I feel the same about Kaindoh.
But we need a starter. We do not have a DE2, and we passed on several plum candidates to take Bolton and Humphrey. At least Humphrey is going to make a Pro Bowl. Bolton’s going to be fine. |

That was pretty early in the draft process. He’s a good player, I’m just not a fan of back to back lber in the 2nd with what was on the board but they had him rated high, and when that falls that way you take them.
