It's the most defensible but using a top 75 pick on a guy who might be as good as Mike Pennel in a year or two doesn't feel like our style at all.
The Chiefs are convinced (and perhaps rightly so) that they can keep getting run-stuffing 0-techs either as cheap veterans or 3rd day flyers. They've seemingly had little interest in really attacking the position for years.
There's a non-zero chance that he'd end up being the Derrick Nnadi of the class -- the best pick of a draft who ends up being a quality player for awhile but who shouldn't be the most valuable pick from any draft class.
My favorite pick out of that group would be Lachey. Not sure you'd get anything out of him for at least a season, but there are some tools there and as a 7th round pick, that's worth the gamble.
