Let’s talk about rd 2

[RunKC]

Lot of good receivers left as well as corners.

Feeling good about it. What’s our big board look like?

[Chiefnj2]

They have to go DE in the 2nd round.
The roster at DE might be one of the worst in the league. (Counting Jones as a DT)

They don’t HAVE to do anything. Forcing a pick means you get a guy like Breeland Speaks.

Draft a DE if there is one there that you like. If not, grab one later if there is one and sign Ingram after the draft.

Yup I think they know that and will try to trade up for someone like Ossai or Basham.

DE could get really thin at the mid 2nd

Yep.

And there's a decent chance the value at DE is very thin by the time we pick. It would be a bad idea to force it when there will likely be good value at WR, IOL, CB, and LB.

We still have Ingram that we could bring in.

It depends on how far someone falls. Trading up into the first 10 or so picks is going to be difficult without trading next year's picks, which would not be ideal.

Or Spags and our staff are a difference maker but know we need to move up to get him. Trade up for 58 and a 63/3rd rd swap so we still have a 3rd and can get value at IOL, corner or WR

This. As much as I would want a stud at WR or someone to take over at DE once we kick Clark to the curb next year, don’t force it. Take the best available talent. IMO a 2nd round pick should be able to compete for a starting role by year end, and we have two such picks. Play your cards right and you can get a talented player who fell like Thornhill. Reach and you end up with crap like Speaks.

If DE isn’t added we can sign Ingram (although the depth chart looks horrendous there for 2022).

If CB doesn’t work sign Breeland or another of the available cornerbacks.

WR seems to be the main position where there’s really not much available, so if we can’t get one in the draft we’re probably stuck with what we have. Watkins was injured so often though that they’re pretty used to that by now.

[The Franchise]

I would rather they double up on DE later in the draft instead of reaching for one in the 2nd because they feel that they have to.

Ingram can’t be relied on at age 32 coming off injuries. They should sign him anyway for depth and rotation like they did with Suggs, but to hope he’s a starterFor 16 is a stretch.

[AdolfOliverBush]

KC can't possibly start the season with Hardman as WR2...right?

[RunKC]

This is Brett ****ing Veach. 5 trades in 3 years. All traded UP.

We didn’t have a 1st. I would bet they’re looking for a top guy on their board, DE or another position.

Doesn’t mean we are giving up a pick to move up

[dannybcaitlyn]

Let’s get that Center!

[The Franchise]

Unless it’s Humphrey or Meinerz....I don’t want them drafting a center high.

Sure, why not?

Time for Hardman to shit or get off the pot.

More likely though that Pringle or Robinson start outside and Hardman remains in the slot.

[chiefforlife]

I feel like adding a Center like Humphrey makes our O line completely overhauled and a TOP line in the league.

This to me is THE priority. Adding an edge is important but we can get by with a FA, same with CB.

We could absolutely SOLVE one of our most important weakness or add a rotational player to the defense.

I say Get that center and feel good about having the Oline Patrick deserves in front of him. Then go BPA or WR if they really feel like thats the next hole.
