McCaffrey is probably fine here. I don't see a better probable 4th rounder.

Man, I would love Johnny Wilson as a target in the third as well - I am repeating myself here, but if you look at him as a TE, there is a lot to work with there.

Mitchell is right there with Worthy for me now. I could've just as easily wrote "Texas WRs" there.

I haven't reviewed film of him yet, but doesn't he have an insane amount of drops?

5, not sure that's too damning but it does amount to approx 10%.

The more I rewatch these WRs, the more I think Keon Coleman is severely underrated.

I didn't realize he is also only 20 years old. Doesn't turn 21 till next month. So much room for growth still.

I really like Baker. Think there’s a really high chance we draft him if we stay at 64.

I think he might be the guy that in 5 years teams are like "why did we pass on this guy again?"...I'd have zero issues if the Chiefs took him.

Honestly, it's really starting to come down to a handful of players for me at 32.

Worthy, Mitchell, Coleman, Franklin, and Guyton.

I'd be ok with Morgan, Kingsley, or McConkey too.

[DJ's left nut]

I'm down to Morgan, Kingsley and Mitchell.

And if I were more confident in where Amegadjie was going to end up, I'd maybe be a little more aggressive in 1 looking to get Amegadjie in 2 or 3 at OT. I love the tools but there's some risk there.

But I honestly don't think I'd have a problem with something completely absurd like just going Morgan/Walker/Amegadjie/Baker if the board fell like that.

There are a few guys that I just like a damn lot and if I used my first 4 picks to get 2 wide receivers and 2 OTs (with either of those OTs being viable OG candidates if both hit) then I'd be completely content if it's 4 of those guys I really like.

It will never ever EVER happen like that. Veach just hasn't demonstrated a willingness to stack like that. But I'd grin from ear to ear if it did.

[staylor26]

I'd be totally fine hedging my bets at both positions. They've been positions of need for so long that it would be nice to finally fill them long term.

Bruce Feldman from the Athletic was on Sirius radio discussing his new mock and draft rumors. I don’t like him but he’s great at communicating info from league sources.

He talked about draft rumors and said something quickly about every team. For the Chiefs he said it was no secret at all that they love Xavier Worthy. Also said they really like Amarius Mims and believe both guys have really high ceilings.

I think Mims is a guy we need to look out for. He has really good footwork to go with that massive body frame.

Bonus: Feldman said the Broncos want JJ McCarthy badly and are trying to trade up but are not optimistic they can get him

[staylor26]

I'd definitely consider trading up for Mims if he's still there in the 20s.

Mims is the one OL I would walk away from being ok with them taking just because he is the freakiest of freak athletes at that position.

I do think he'll go higher than a lot of people think based on that, some team is going to see that and fall in love.

[staylor26]

I just can't wait to see which WR we draft in the first 2 rounds.

[Chieftain]

I am not a fan of Mims for two reasons:

1) Not a natural left tackle
2) Too large of a body size which means more injury prone (see Becton)
