Kansas City will have four picks in the first three rounds, having acquired an additional pick early in Round 3 by trading cornerback L'Jarius Sneed to the Titans last offseason. -- Adam Teicher

So any hopes of a real upgrade at LT are pretty much null and void. They're not trading up because they have no picks, and it sounds like they have no intention of being players in free agency so will need them all. Guess we get to look forward to D.J. Humphries and Kingsley battling it out, and Mahomes' talent continuing to be wasted with a creaky, gremlin offense.

I can't find that quote anywhere from Veach, but even as lame as Teicher is I don't think he'd put it in quotation marks if it wasn't actually stated. Could just be playing coy, but I doubt it.

when did he say it? Things have changed in the past few days...
