So what's his character issue? Did nobody go to his birthday party? Is he going to grow up to be Foxtail bundle of sticks part 2 and take less money to leave KC because he thought he could outsmart us by hiring a n00b agent?

That succeeded? None. There have been none. Anywhere.
That failed? As a Chief? In the last half decade? Lucas Niang.

Chiefs probably are the best team to take Simmons, b/c it's an organization with the proven discipline to sit on a rookie for an entire season for long-term benefit (see Mahomes, Patrick).
One hopeful sign is most players who came back felt pressure to play the next season. The Chiefs can afford (we hope) to wait on him, presuming Moore is adequate at LT. |

I think if the rest of the draft is good I won't mind. 1st rounders have a 50/50 chance of becoming a quality long-term NFL starter. Just have to go along the rest of the draft knowing that Simmon's chances are a crapshoot and who knows if we get something out of it.

They took a risk and get a fifth year option if he’s awesome….and an extra year if he needs more time to get healthy.
I hated watching mahomes run for his life all season. We all bitched about the tackles. Now we have a tackle. It’s not flashy….but if he gives mahomes an extra 1 Mississippi each play….rice and Hollywood and worthy are going to catch rocket bombs all season. |

We’ve seen that outside the qb position this is the hardest position for a team that picks last to get right. We gotta take big swings. Jaylon Moore was a great get but does anybody really think he’s the long term answer? Any OT at this stage of the draft has high bust potential.

Because the guys I have been able to track down (Jeremy Lin, Andre Roberson, Victor Oladipo) never came back. Literally. At all.

It's not just a "calculated risk" ... it's a "close your eyes, plug your eyes, hop up and down, saying "not listening not listening not listening"" risk.
