The ONLY position we didn't address in this draft is TE.

Curious how that will be addressed. Unless Veach feels we already have it. :hmmm:

I think Chanel #5 could be our Micah Parsons. Spags will add him as a blitzer in the middle with CJ, which will get us the pressure we need to augment a fading Clark and a promising rookie. Look at the kid's ease at getting sacks as a SAM LB, as well as being a stout run stuffer.

I do think we paid a high price to trade up to #21, but I am certain BUF would have taken McDuffie, so I'm okay with it. We got great value at positions of great need and we still have cap space to sign a free agent or two.

I liked the draft. What's interesting to me is that pre-draft I think you could have split CP v roughly between those who thought we desperately needed multiple WRs and those who thought we needed multiple DL guys...and we kinda got neither and everyone seems pretty happy. A.lot of people who've been saying "don't invest at CB, there's no value" now seem ecstatic that we've done just that.

Personally I quite like the build from the back approach, i just didn't see that being a Spags approach. His scheme seems to thrive on pressure up front. I'm thinking Chenal is going to be involved a LOT here.

There's definitely picks i like more than others, roughly


- McDuffie I like, surprised he's a Spags guy but he's excellent either way
- Karlaftis I wasn't high on but great value at 30
- Moore I like, might not have a high ceiling but should be a good slot receiver from day 1 at worst
- Cook. Not a fan of the pick. Good player but i preferred Cross and Kerby Joseph. Also gutted to not get Travis Jones there.
- Chenal. I wasn't keen on a LB here and I wanted a coverage guy, but i like him a lot and i can see the logic with the other picks.
- Kinnard. I was after a pass blocker first and foremost but I love the value
- Williams. Might not have double dipped and I don't know much about him, but looks promising.
- Watson, Pacheco etc. Others i still wanted more but who cares at this point.

I was sold after the 2nd day. Best draft we've had in years.

I know I'm just a guy, but I think our fanbase has been big homers during this draft. I love a lot of what they did on days 2 and 3. I think the Karlaftis pick just holds this whole thing back for me. I gotta go with a B.

TE should be fine. Gray and Fortson both are as good as anyone that we could have grabbed in this draft. Wasn't a great draft for TE. Fortson was looking good until he went down and Gray showed flashes. Looking forward to what they do this season.

I like the draft and would score it higher than B, and I also think outside of CP a lot of pundits have scored it highly too. But...you're not wrong, there's lots of homers.

Our DT position resembles our WR position last year. We have Jones and JAGs, that's it. This draft was clearly weak at that position outside of some good ones from GA in the first. But DT is not a premium position so we'll be fine. Our young stud LB core will cover a lot of blemishes there.

Can we say Superbowl...

Veach had to nail it and he did. Similar feeling to the 2008 draft after the Allen trade, only this time the Chiefs are in a much better position to integrate and develop these guys.

Solid A

Who would you have picked at 30 instead of the Greek Freak? Just curious?

Solid B. I think Pickens (or even Tolbert) would have been the better choice long term - now we'll never know.

If they use Chenal in a Micah Parsons role as IowaHawkeyeChiefs suggests, then B+.

I found the one guy who doesn't like the Chenal pick.
