ChiefsPlanet - Chiefs *****2025 NFL DRAFT THREAD

I mean, you have arguably the worst OT situation in football. You can’t really complain about getting a top 10 talent at 32. Obviously, their doctors are comfortable with him.

Your ceiling on the left side with Mahomes going into his 30s with Simmons at LT and Kingsley at LG is astronomically high. There’s going to be plenty of WRs, RBs and DTs available in rounds 2-3.

It’s not a sexy pick, but it’s the kind of pick championship teams make.

And of course, Howie Roseman nabs Jihaad Campbell ...glad KC doesn't have to go through that defense to GET TO the Super Bowl. That's like Baun and Fred Warner being in the same LB corps.

Dude's got Brian Bosworth shoulders though...

It's worth a roll of the dice. He's a top 10 pick if he didn't have the injury, with Mahomes we will never draft in the top 10. We have a good med team that looked him over. We good.

And if they are wrong and they screwed the roll of the dice we just wasted a 1st round pick on a guy who could get hurt on the first play of the season.

I wonder if Connelly was there if they still make this pick.

Very disappointing. It could have certainly put the finishing touches on whether or not the pick will pan out.

Inaccurate oversimplification of how the draft transpired. Having a pro bowl left tackle on a five-year rookie deal will be part of the Chiefs’ future success. :)

We have wasted 1 round picks before and still won SB

I remember a time when the people on Chiefs Planet complained because we didn't take chances but they just took a calculated risk so we'll see. We have a starter so there's also time. Chiefs Planet had me talked out of this guy so now I feel really good about it. :thumb: ........:LOL:

I remember Carl.

Good question. My first instinct is to say I bet not. But who knows? I'm just not in a good place right now because of this pic. Very disappointing.

This will be a great thread to bump in two years...

Yep if he doesn't get right from that injury we have failed multiple first round picks. FAU, CEH we have gotten some good ones though
