But Jones can dominate the line better than anyone not named Donald so its difficult to give up that presence but does giving him up and acquiring Ramsey's coverage ability balance that out? I think it could but I don't want Jones anywhere but in KC. I'm really torn about this completely made up scenario lol

Obviously we don't know anything about how the future will play out, but my point is just that there is NO ONE in the AFC who is anywhere near us in terms of stacked for the foreseeable future. We'll have some competition from the Ravens, and maybe from the Texans if they can figure out how to build a team around Watson. Outside of that, if we can just get Brady to retire, it's our conference to rule until someone else finds a franchise QB in the draft.

If Veach pulled that off he would absolutely be a wizard and/or a jedi -- probably both

I say wait it out.
Don’t panic, we’re in excellent shape. Be patient and see how this defense unfolds prior to the trade deadline. Also, see what the market has to offer then and at what cost. How much does having an elite corner increase our chances of winning a superbowl? How much will that compromise our future assets? How does having an elite corner effect our salary cap situation and for future signings like Jones and Mahomes. These are questions that need to be answered prior to making that decision. Its not just about now, but also about longevity with respect to success and winning superbowls. Weigh it out first prior to making a decision. I think Brett Veach and the Chiefs will apply that approach. We may not need an elite corner? We may have enough to beat the Patriots as is? Why compromise your assets when you may not have to? To me, its not about having the elite corner but improving the defensive units as a whole. I think we came a long way in the secondary from last year to this year. Think about it, we went from Steven Nelson, Orlando Scandrick, Ron Parker and Eric Murray to Bashaud Breeland, Morris Claiborne, Tyrann Mathieu and Juan Thornhill. Thats a huge improvement! But, many people are still not happy.

I think they were gonna trade up into the first with the Rams for a CB using those 2 2nds they had.

I voted be aggressive but I'm not on board with bringing in Ramsey, especially if that will cost a high price.

Thing is too guys, yeah youre gonna have to beat the Pats. But then you're gonna have to beat a really good NFC team if you beat the Pats.

The only time I've paid attention to Ramsey, he was getting smoked by one KC receiver or another. Just how good is he, and does he fit our defensive scheme? Assuming he's as good as advertised, I'd probably pull the trigger, because we aren't getting a blue chip CB drafting at 29-32.
