Rumors are saying Chris Olave may be falling….

I'm guessing Barb stays put and
1) Takes the best WR, Edge, CB available at 29, 30, as more QBs sneak into the first.
2) Takes a host of picks from a QB needy team that sees one of their guys available at 29, 30.

It's a pretty good draft to have a quantity of picks. I like the idea of stocking up on whatever we need.

Rumors from who?

The agent of the other WRs...

This is what i was thinking. It's officially the deep part of smoke screen season.

I feel like 85%+ of the information coming out is 94% smokescreen

Would you rather trade up for Jameson or stay out and draft Pickens?

Because the Chiefs lost Hill and have lots of draft picks...McShay (whoever that is) with a hot take there.

If KC wants to trade up for an injured WR...they should include next years first as part of the compensation. Too deep of a draft...from all the accounts I have read.

A first round pick does not mean success...Mahomes and CEH were the only first rounders on offense last year...Chiefs had two former 1st rounder cast-offs busts as back-up CBs...that was it on defense...so KC had two 1st round picks as starters on the entire team...one is a RB that appears to have been over-drafted.

I'd rather stay put and draft Dotson

Nah im good off that.

CP would draft me, I would be the next Jesse Haynes

Free agent DB Henry Black is visiting with the Chiefs on Tuesday.

Black played 262 defensive snaps for the Packers last year and was a core special teamer with 73% of the team's special teams snaps. The Packers used him almost evenly between slot corner, deep safety, and box player and he finished with a 44.9 PFF coverage grade. He could compete to be a Daniel Sorensen replacement in Kansas City.

IF there's any truth to this:

I really do think Williams and Olave are the two guys the Chiefs have at the top of their WR list.

Forbes is always spot on when it comes to the draft. He had us taking Fisher before anyone else

London is coming of an ankle injury so he may fall…. If he’s there at 30 woah I would cum

Chiefs would pass on him IMO.

Why? do you miss Kelvin Benjamin?

On my Do Not Draft list

Pretty easy to do when it's the first overall ****ing pick.

Why Olave over Wilson? Many have Wilson higher.

Wilson is way better than Olave in my opinion.

Since he was claimed, the Steelers have to pay his 2022 salary, $2.54 million. I wonder if any other team(s) also put in a claim.

Drake London is a bigger Adam Thielen or a quicker Mike Williams.


Don't matter, he's gone way before we pick.

How big is N'Keal Harry


has it helped him get separation

N’Keal Harry doesn’t suck dick just because he can’t get separation. He sucks because there’s literally nothing he does particularly well at the NFL level.

London has great hands. He’s sneaky good after the catch. And he’s excellent at contested catches.

No I know but I keep reading he gets separation by jumping. I don't think that's sustainable.

I read this and I get all prickly like a spidey sense.


That's a pretty big "probably" and it seems like something NFL DBs can figure out.

How much separation do guys like AJ Brown, Mike Williams, etc. get?

I don’t mean to completely downplay separation, but it’s one of those things that gets overrated after a certain point.

It's something I noticed about Harry and I feel like it's a pretty safe red flag.

Then you read about a guy like Garrett Wilson

And I think give me the guy who is constantly getting open 100 times out of 100 over the guy winning contested catches.

Nobody is saying that London is better than Wilson, Williams, or even Olave.

But if he falls to 29/30, he’d be an excellent pick.

He’s not just a contested catch guy. He can take short passes and turn them into big gains. Most guys with his size and skill set are not as good after the catch as he is.

He’s also extremely competitive and has an alpha mentality.

Well I hope we trade up for Jameson Williams and don't have to worry about it.

Damn this dude could really be out of there

SF is thinking WTF? He's injured 2 of 3 years and he wants how much just out of the blue? This is the new NFL. Players are demanding shit more than ever. Shefter thinks he wants a new team.

Literally everyone had us taking Joeckel

Well, he was Jon Ogden!

Just ask Matt Miller.

If I was the Jacksonville GM I'd take Charles Cross #1 and never look back

Where is this from?

BTW, he doesn't get separation by jumping. He runs great routes. His route running and size make him always open to a QB with ball placement accuracy.

So this is all his QB's fault?

Oh yikes. That’s a terrifying list.

1. Why does this list stop at 6?

2. Why does it feel like your entire evaluation of London is based on this?

3. Jalen Reagor would be good if he could simply catch the ball.

4. Nobody on that list is as good of a prospect as London.

1. I don't know I didn't make it

2. Because I'm trying to make a point about contested catches vs getting open

3. Ok

4. Not what they said before the draft I had this exact argument about Harry right here

I'd trade Debo in a heartbeat. Overrated.

Just stop with the Deebo talk, he’s not coming here. He wants to be paid 25 mil a year

Drake London has a real chance to fall to the second round. Ankle injuries are troublesome for receivers and he’s not fast at all, anyway. Talk has been of him running high 4.6 and possibly 4.7.

Mike Williams, Michael Crabtree, Laquan Treadwell, Braelon Edwards and a few more come to mind when I think of examples of reasons to be cautious about drafting London.

He is not even on my list for the Chiefs WRs.

BUT put his big ass out there as a TE!! Now Im interested...

N’Keal Harry was a 2nd rounder that got drafted at the end of the 1st.

Most have London as a top 10-20 pick.

And something tells me that if that list went to 10-12, it wouldn’t look so bad.

am I the only one that looks at him and he kinda looks a little thin for his size to make it long term in the NFL. needs to hit the weights more or something.

I'd be ****ing pumped if London was there when we picked. You being serious right now?

He's basically a Mike Evans clone

Yea there were a couple mocks that him falling to us today. Apparently his ankle injury and him refusing to run the 40 is making him fall some

Saw estimates of 4.5 40

DEEBO SAMUEL
WR, SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS

ESPN's Adam Schefter said Deebo Samuel "wants to move on" from the 49ers.
Schefter would go on to say the 49ers want to get a deal done but Samuel "has put a halt to everything for right now." Samuel pulled the 49ers' logo from his social media pages and is skipping San Francisco's voluntary offseason program. Entering the final year of his rookie deal, the star wideout and prolific part-time running back is looking to be the next player at his position to get a massive payday. Coming off a campaign that featured 1,770 yards from scrimmage and 14 scores, it's easy to see why he wants a new contract. Though Samuel may be disgruntled with his situation at the moment, the most likely outcome remains him suiting up for the 49ers in 2022.

He’s not coming here…. He wants 25 mil a year

I just did a mock draft.


Every WR and EDGE was gone by the time we picked. Let's hope teams are stupider than that.

I moved around and got Kyle Hamilton S Notre Dame and Roger McCreary CB Georgia.

Well our secondary is fixed but we still need a DE, and a WR. Lol this is going to be harder than I thought.

Christian Watson was there but I couldn't in good conscious take him over much higher rated corners when it's such a need.

I like London.

I thought N'Keal was overrated junk coming out and likely to bust.

NFL teams like London a lot more than the analytic bros right now.

He's actually good at football.

Except he’s not.

His style of play is similar, but Evans had speed. I think he’s going to struggle against good cover corners in the NFL, but I could be wrong.

I mean one of these receivers is going to bust there's one that does every year.

If it isn't London who do you guys think it will be?

Yea, Mike Evans is a unicorn.

But London is still a very good prospect.

Just look at Michael Pittman and Amon-Ra St. Brown. They’re both legit NFL receivers, and London was clearly the best of that group.

Evans ran a 4.53 40 London is just as fluid as him too. I'm not saying he will be as good as Evans

We're taking Pickens bud.

Yeah he definitely would be a good get at the end of the 2nd

He might not even make it to 50.

If they want him, they’ll have to either take him at 29/30, or trade up from 50.

Well the way receivers are being valued in these mocks I've been doing you're probably right.

I'm worried

London skipped leg day

Can someone create a draft thread so we can post stuff in there

I don't get the London hype either. Maybe I'm missing something.

There’s an entire ****ing forum.

That or Kelvin Benjamin.

Don't ruin it for the rest of us by letting him know that.

Too late

That’s the problem with ESPN…

That’s a horrible trade. This place would explode if that happened.

Hollywood is fair but not 1/29 and needing a contract fair.
