This conversation has gotten absurd.
I promise you, not a single poster here on the board OR anyone in the Chiefs organization is unconcerned with the left tackle situation. Not a single person.
IF you don't follow the draft, and don't know what left tackles are IN this draft, don't spout a bunch of noise about trading whatever is necessary to go up and get THE GUY. The reality is, this is not THAT draft.
This team is going to have a lot of tough decisions this off-season, and there will be significant turnover. We're going to need those picks to fill a lot of holes.
Nobody trades great Left Tackles with prime years left. It's extremely rare, and only happens if they already have ONE, and they don't want to pay TWO. So, if this is what you want, Alaris Jackson is your man. Now, the resume is short, and there's a risk, but he did a nice job for the Rams this season. They've already got the other guy that was their plan A. Cam Robinson is Jawaan Taylor only not as good. I don't know about YOU, but I'm not crazy about that idea.
If you're talking about an over 30 guy hopefully with a little left in the tank, we're talking stop-gap. This is probably the most likely path, and that mix will probably include Humphries. You will probably be over-paying in most cases. This means saying goodbye to good younger players you'd like to keep. This opens more holes. Nonetheless, this is PROBABLY what we'll do. Stop-gap and hope Kingsley develops behind him.
