I don't really care.

I mean, I'm curious. I have some ideas of what I'd like.

But I have no doubt that Veach has a plan, and will make good choices.

There's not a position he could select other than a QB in the first where I'd say, " what the hell are you doing?"

Nice to be here.

I’m totally down with this

It’s fun to speculate and talk it over here, but ultimately Veach has been sooo money that no matter how it shakes out... I’m confident we’ll all look at this draft and be thrilled with it

Haven’t heard much of that if anything I’m hearing a lot of praise for him playing through injuries. Maybe they were just referring to tackling, which I do agree he needs to improve on, but he’s not Marcus Peters either.

The guy allowed a 40% completion rate since 2018 in the SEC. His effort was just fine.

Serious question, doesn’t every college back struggle with blocking when they come to the NFL?

Most do, but no, not “every”.

I don’t view it at “struggle with” as much as just haven’t done it or really been asked to do it. Just because they haven’t done it doesn’t mean they can’t

WOW!!!

Kenneth Murray - LB

School: Oklahoma | Year: Junior

I have no idea how Murray ended up falling all the way down here. He's a good player, but hey, sometimes surprises like this happen when matching up fits and needs. He could end up going way earlier in the draft, and we just couldn't let this guy fall out of the first round. He's just way too good. So, congratulations, Chiefs. Things keep coming up roses for you. Of course, if you just wanted to reach out for one of the best remaining running backs, I'm not going to be mad about that, either.

For some Antoine Winfield hype... I've seen his NFL comparison as Mathieu because he's versatile like that, it would be badass to have 2 guys like that.

Fulton is still on the board in that mock, don't think I'd be taking Murray...

Yea ummm, I clearly like Fulton (just look at my last couple of posts in this thread), but no way I’m passing on Murray if he falls into our lap too.

I like the tradeback, IF you can get your LB/CB/S with that pick. Picking up a 3rd rd pick would enable a developmental OL (OT preferably), I bet you can get good G or C talent in the 4th and later.

This is a supremely awful take

Ever since he took over for Kareem, his numbers have not been that far off from Hunt on a per game basis. Outside of the beginning/middle of this season (injury), Williams has performed pretty damn well and especially in the playoffs.

This is complete and utter nonsense.

Williams has been in the league for 6 years and has 1,200 yards and 12 TD during that tenure.

Hunt had 1,300+ yards and 8 TD's in his rookie season.

Counting on a 28 year old RB who's never played a full 16 game season, let alone 19 games, is foolish. And in terms of NFL productivity, Williams is barely a pimple on Kareem Hunt's ass.

It just doesn’t make sense to spend a 1st on a position that you could likely get similar production for from someone in 3rd-5th round.

This is complete speculation and has become a dumb narrative.

I think Veach goes with veteran guys looking to redeem themselves like Theo Riddick, Chris Thompson, CJ Procise, etc. There’s just too many other positions to address with very limited draft capital as is.

Just what the Chiefs need: A older failure in the backfield to round out their current batch of scrubs.

MahomesMagic 04-11-2020 12:45 PM

Queen
Murray
Fulton

Are the guys who match need/value most.

If those guys are all gone then look at

Lloyd Cushenberry, Center
KJ Hamler, WR
Cesar Ruiz, Center/Guard
D'Andre Swift, RB

Trade Back into the 2nd and get another pick

JK Dobbins, RB
Michael Pittman, WR

come into play.

Without reading the whole thread........

It’s a strong consensus that our top needs are......

Corner
Coverage LB
Interior OL

Correct?

staylor26 04-11-2020 01:07 PM

AJ Epenesa is another guy that people are talking about falling out of the 1st.

We’re going to have at least one guy fall to us unexpectedly.

Murray or Queen if the Saints or Ravens don’t go LB, Epenesa or Fulton due to teams not being as high on them as the media, Swift or Ruiz due to positional value etc.

Running back is also a need.
