If Burkholder signs off you make him a priority.
Farmer is who I think the Chiefs really want in rd 2. They’ve spoken to him daily per Farmer himself. He’s not tall but he’s he’s got 35 arms, big hands, is strong as hell and has a really good first step.
Omar Norman-Lott is contingency IMO. Still love the kid. Enormous hands (11+!!!) long enough arms, highest pass rush win rate. His value on passing downs alone would be great.
Jaydon Blue is the best receiving back in this class and it isn’t close. The production and fluidity there is elite. He’d be an excellent 3rd down back with time (most of these kids need to get better at blocking). He’s gonna go in rd 4 bc of that and his speed. Of course Etienne, Smith, Etc are options there too. The Chiefs had zero explosion or playmaking from their backs which is why Andy utilized Worthy there so often.
Not big on the Ayomanor kid. I’d take Royals but I don’t hate him. Roberts is one my favorite Spags edges.
And goddamn do I love Buchanan and Crawford. They’re really good for day 3 IMO. Love their fit here.

I just don’t see any way a good medical staff CAN sign off on Simmons.
The historical precedent is so bad, I don’t see a way you can ignore the data.
