The Chiefs themselves have fallen into this multiple times with Clyde and Felix. Neither should have been first rd picks and ended up being reaches.
But hey some of us have guys we loved and were mocked for it. I remember hearing that Derrick Hall, one of my favorite guys that year, wasn’t a 1st rd talent. They took Felix who has busted while Hall just had 8 sacks, 2 FF’s, 20 QB hits and 6 TFL.
Sometimes the 2nd rd guys can easily have a case to be first rd value, especially at pick 31/32.

Right there with you on Derrick Hall... Man did I like that guy...
As for Ersery, I don't particularly like him in the 1st but I think he's probably a top 45 guy. That speaks to your point where if you are picking at 31/32 and you like a guy, you probably are going to take him there and not wait unless you feel he's closer to a 60 guy.
