Trading Down
It looks like there's a very good chance we're stuck in the rift of the first Rd when all the premier talent is gone.
IMO the draft could go a lot like this: http://mmqb.si.com/mmqb/2016/04/24/n...er-king-trades IMO Lynch goes way higher and Kelly/Billings is off the board, but in this situation it looks like trading down is the best option. Of the prospects left on the board (again I think Kelly/Billings are gone), the best prospect available appears to be Josh Garnett. I think if we stayed at 28 he's the guy (Vonn Bell is appealing here as well). In this situation, do you trade down to the mid 30's if you can get a 4th Rd pick? |

If Dorsey believes the 2nd tier is 13-30, why on Earth would we trade down?

Run, what's not to like about Treadwell other than the obvious speed factor? He looks like a tough football player who understands how to run a route and use his body to shield defenders from the ball. And when the ball is in the air, it seems that he simply decides that it's HIS. Period. Plus, his catch radius is HUGE. I'd take him in a heartbeat.

What was Treadwell's 3 cone and other times?

It won't happen IMO. With the loss of our 3rd, it doesn't seem likely considering how valuable draft picks are to Dorsey.
Next year? Absolutely.

In that draft scenario, I would definitely agree with a trade back from rd 1... preferably a trade back that would keep KC in the mid 2nd.

No, but common sense says the majority of them will, which goes back to my original point. Obviously, most of our top players will be gone from the top tier and second tier, so it would be asinine to trade down for third tier players. Why run the risk of losing out on a quality player for an inferior player? Trade down in the second round, if we must, but not the first round.

As to the question, NO, I'm not trading down for a 4th round pick.
As I've been saying for week, the Chiefs may need to trade up. Trading down results in lessor talent. |

Also, Peter King admits that he knows absolutely nothing about the draft, other than the Top Two picks and that his draft is just pure speculation.
