He now coaches the Denver Broncos and will eventually get fired from that job in shame.
The moral of the story: If you're 100% locked in on a single player and you have a draft shopping list that's pretty short, quit ****ing around and just go get your ****ing guy to avoid anybody swooping in and ruining your day. Or career, for that matter.

This is so true and so obvious. But the obvious often seems the hardest to understand for some it seems.
We had players the Chiefs, targeted at our two positions of need. We went up and got them giving up very little, instead of holding on and hoping they would fall to us.
I had been one who wanted us to try to trade up to get the LT first in round one and then the WR in round two or so many were available. I think that’s what Veach beach wanted to. but when it didn’t work out that way he had to switch to doing what he did.
And we now have two developmental LT prospects. That improves our chances that one of them will work out. And the one we got this year, we seem to be a much higher potential developmental project.
