Mock (3/28)

Direckshun · 12:51 PM

With Nate Taylor's nuggets yesterday dashing my Hopkins hopes, here's a new mock.

Assumptions:

1. The Chiefs extend DT Chris Jones for 4 years, $120m. It opens up $20m in cap space for 2023.

2. The Chiefs sign WR Odell Beckham, Jr. for 3 years, $54m. The Chiefs can get out of it easily after 2 years.

3. The Chiefs trade RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire for a 2024 conditional pick.

4. The CB Rashad Fenton 7th round pick does not qualify.

5. NFL Draft selections:

1.31. DT Mazi Smith, Michigan
2.63. The Chiefs trade their 2024 3rd to move up to 2.46. DE Isaiah Foskey, Notre Dame
3.96. OT Blake Freeland, BYU
4.122. WR Michael Wilson, Stanford
4.134. RB Sean Tucker, Syracuse
5.166. RB Deuce Vaughn, Kansas State
6.178. QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson, UCLA
6.217. S Rashad Torrence II, Florida
7.249. LB Mikel Jones, Syracuse
7.250. OG/C Juice Scruggs, Penn State

6. After the draft, the Chiefs sign RB Jerrick McKinnon, WR Justin Watson, extend CB L'Jarius Sneed for 3 years, $42m.

The roster:

QB: Mahomes, Thompson-Robinson, Buechele
RB: Pacheco, McKinnon, Vaughn, Tucker
FB: some guy

WR: Beckham, Toney, Valdez-Scantling, Moore, Watson, Wilson
TE: Kelce, Gray, Bell, Fortson

I was on board with you until you went RB, RB, QB in the 4th-6th rounds.

Dunerdr · 03-28-2023, 09:08 AM

I dont think anyone is trading for Clyde. And i dont think they double up on RB. But i could live with it all i guess.

No Gay?

Wilson is a broke dick. Think I'd rather another poke there. I do like the rest. I think a legit rb like tucker is a nice get and we all know Vaughn is a gadget guy and not much in terms of an actual rb. I'm most concerned about his pass pro projection.

Mazi Smith could actually be the Chiefs pick...not sure how much people will like it.

Who is Wright at left tackle?

I have literally no clue, but it's been fixed.

I'd be thrilled, depending on how the board falls.

JPH83 · 03-28-2023, 01:09 PM

I'm not sure I'd go for the same picks, and it feels light at DT, but on the other hand I think that's a better roster than this year's, so i kinda Iike the outcome.

If people stayed healthy we'd be better at LB, WR, DE, DT (but less depth), RB, and probably at east treading water elsewhere.

For whatever reason he just feels like the pick to me.
