Nope.
I'd do ONE. I don't believe in trading more than one first for anything other than an elite QB. And we have one, so I don't like mortgaging your future ever while that window is open. But that's just me. |

Absolutely not.
2 firsts is way too steep. |

Nope, not when I need an actual LT.
If you're convinced that the sieve that is OBJ is your long-term LT then you make a trade like that for Burns. I don't mind burning a 1st in a trade, I'd just like it to not be this year's first. |

Mortgaging your future how? The Chiefs will still have 17 picks, and Veach has been on a drafting hot streak. |

If the Chiefs don’t believe they can or want to keep OBJ long term, then you will need the 1sts. At least one of them, anyway. |

Let me put a couple more offers out there for you guys that are less than the 2 1sts. Tell me which ones you’d make the deal for, if any.
* a 2023 2nd and a 2024 1st * a 2023 2nd and LB Willie Gay * a 2023 2nd and a 2024 2nd * a 2023 1st Keep in mind you’re paying Burns 100m once you acquire him. |

I'm dead set against trading two 1st for anybody. I would never trade two 1st, ever. |

I don't think I'd do 2 1's. As much as I love the player, that's just not worth it unless it's a QB. Plus you're paying him after you trade.
Nah. I'd be out on that. |

You can if you want a developmental project to sit behind OBJ or play RT for a year or two.
If OBJ is gone and you absolutely need a guy that can step in day 1, you will probably have to trade up in the first. Your thinking is so binary sometimes. |

One draft pick and I like the way Harris has played. |

But let’s not pretend like the Chiefs are on the fence about OBJ. They really, really want him. That is not at issue here, it’s can they agree to a deal with him. And there’s a non-zero chance Veach is under the apprehension that he can/will. If so, I think you’re not as married to those 1sts. I literally think the LT position is the one thing potentially hamstringing a “2 1sts” offer. These 1sts are at the bottom of the first round, and as I’ve said the Chiefs are already rich in picks with an elite drafting GM. The most important thing this team needs after LT is passrush help. And if Burns can give you great passrushing for 5 years, it’s a deal I would make. |

You're at the point now where if you don't resign OBJ, you gotta think pretty long and hard about going up and getting a guy that can step in day 1. No way can they tag OBJ again. For one, he won't play on it I don't think and for 2 it's a shit load of cap space burned. |
