Can't wait! Love your mocks! :thumb:

High praise and lofty comparison for Burton here, sounds like an Andy Reid / Chiefs WR to me:

1. Harrison Jr
2. Nabers
3. Odunze
4. Franklin
5. Thomas Jr

...How I see it currently.

What's it going to take to move up for Franklin?

Great hands, great route runner. Will be interesting to see his 40 time. I think he'd be a great fit for this offense offering a different skillset than Rice.

Pearsall always made plays when I watched UF this year.

Not the first time I've heard that comp of Diggs. I do see the Amon-Ra comp as well.

The more I think about it the more I feel the Chiefs should draft a LT and if Jordan Morgan is there, you run to the podium.
You can't find stud young left tackles in free agency and certainly not later in the second round. The cream of the crop can only be had in the 1st round.
As much of a need as we have for a WR, the biggest need of them all is LT.

Morgan just measured in with an arm length under 33 inches. That’s a full stop for the Chiefs.

I’d be shocked if Darius Robinson is still on the board when we pick. Pretty sure that train left the station after his performance at the Senior Bowl practices thus week. But if he’s there, I’d love to see us grab him.

Where Dane Brugler had the WRs and OTs going in his 1/16 mock...

1-3. Marvin Harrison Jr, Ohio State
1-4. Malik Nabers, LSU
1-6. Rome Odunze, Washington
1-17. Brian Thomas Jr, LSU
1-29. Keon Coleman, Florida State
2-33. Adonai Mitchell, Texas
2-43. Ja'Lynn Polk, Washington
2-49. Ladd McConkey, Georgia
2-54. Troy Franklin, Oregon (WTF?)
2-57. Xavier Worthy, Texas
2-59. Malachi Corley, Western Kentucky


His rank of Franklin is most perplexing given he's maybe the only one I've seen not have him in the 1st and then he says this about him:
The Browns need to get more explosive at receiver. As a true junior in 2023, Franklin was one of only two FBS receivers with 1,300-plus receiving yards and 14-plus touchdowns (Nabers was the other). He also ranked top three with eight catches of 40-plus yards.

1-7. Joe Alt, Notre Dame
1-10. Olu Fashanu, Penn State
1-13. JC Latham, Alabama
1-18. Amarius Mims, Georgia
1-23. Taliese Fuaga, Oregon State (States might be best at OG)
1-24. Tyler Guyton, Oklahoma
1-25. Troy Fautanu, Washington
1-27. Kingsley Suamataia, BYU
2-36. Patrick Paul, Houston
2-45. Dominick Puni, Kansas
2-63. Kiran Amegadji, Yale
He has Graham Barton as a C/G at 31 and Jordan Morgan as a likely OG at 32

He had us drafting at 28/60 and getting Jer'Zahn Newton, DT, Illinois at 28 and Ja'Tavion Sanders, TE, Texas at 60. I see neither of those as remotely likely.

All told, this is early in the process and he'll change course like everyone else.

I'd be stoked with those picks! But we'd be listening to CP complain for years after about "why didn't we just move up for Troy Franklin!?"

yeah. Franklin isn't going in round 2 either. He's too explosive and played far too well. I think Brugler got his chips in the wrong bag on that one. Maybe he goes later than I think but that would be late 1st and not late 2nd.

its a great year to be desperate for wrs.

we really should just say **** it, snag two early and completely fill out and replace the muck in our wr room.

Are the guys from Texas going to be working out with Mahomes pre draft like Rice did last year? If that goes well I can see one of those two being drafted by the Chiefs on Mahomes recommendation. If we don't draft either of those guys that to will be on Mahomes recommendation. How exciting would it be to be a WR prospect and get the call to come work with Patrick ****ing Mahomes?

I'm sure they will be. We didn't have a full list at the time of who was there if I remember right. I know it came out the qjohnston and Zay were there. But I don't remember it coming out about Rashee until after we drafted him.
