Chiefs Trade whatever possible for a LT prospect - Page 22

I don’t care. If there’s a LT in this draft that they feel can be a good quality LT, do it.

I don’t care if it would cost three 1st rd picks. Mahomes is not gonna be this athletic for much longer.

It needs to happen

But I get it. We’d have to trade 64 or 66 to move that high which is tough bc a really good player would be missed out on. A guy like Kaleb Johnson will probably be there for one of those picks and a player like that really helps us build the entire roster.

It would hurt trading that valuable resource but LT has killed us so much. Man I wish Kingsley looked like even an average LT this year.

I honestly don't know what I would do.

Trading up high enough to get a starter is very cost prohibitive.

Trading up a few spots doesn't increase the hit rate, just the cost.

Stay put and there won't be anybody there.

The free agent class honestly sucks balls.

Ultimately I think we see another OBJ move. Something nobody expects until it happens.

Jawaan Taylor with the third highest cap # on the team in 2025.

The gift that keeps on (not) giving.

Here come your options..

Tyron Smith, he's older and injury prone but he's really good in pass pro and managed to play his most snaps this past year since 2018.

Jedrick Wills where you are literally saying well Cleveland is dumb and this guy was a top 10 pick.

Dan Moore cause well Pittsburghs likely not keeping him.

If it's not a FA option I'm not sure what you are doing unless you're gonna do something crazy like call Seattle and be like well Charles Cross hasn't been what you expected, what you want for him?

And that's what happens when you sign a FA OT.

A few concerns:

Obviously LT but that has been touched on by everyone.

I don't think people see it, but our WR's weren't getting open either. hollywood brown will probably not be coming back.

WR: Rashee Rice
WR: Xavier Worthy
WR: Deandre Hopkins

Looks nice, but Rice is coming back from an ACL tear and the majority of players always seem to need one full year to get back to their normal style of playing. I pray im wrong and he comes back firing but who knows...

Xavier Worthy had flashes, but he still only netted us 630 yards while we lost our #1 guy early in the season.

Deandre Hopkins really never BLEW up like the old hopkins and had 430 yards in 10 games played...

I am concerned about WR play.

Moving on to TE, Kelce looks slowwwwwwwwwww and if Noah Gray isn't getting more touches then he can't be much better since Kelce is a pass catching TE.

RB? A guy that was sitting on the couch came in and took 50% of the touches when Pacheco came back. Both RB's finished under 4 ypc, and while i attribute that to the O-line, it's still concerning...

Those are my biggest concerns with the offense, so practically every position but QB.

And Cam Robinson fits that mold almost exactly.

FloridaMan88 · 02-11-2025, 01:50 PM

Tyron Smith had a solid season this year… not sure if that is replicable given his age/injury history.

htismaqe · 02-11-2025, 01:51 PM

Rice did not tear his ACL.

You sing Humphries and let Kingsley Develop. You cut some waste this off-season and next. If Kingsley hasn't shown the growth you make a move on a vet next year. The options are shit and this makes the most sense. Reactionaryplanet wont like hearing it though.

in 26 Kolton Miller is up, Slater is up and Rainmann is up. 5th year players that would be trade able are Cross, Ekwonu and Penning.

Probably unpopular opinion but I wasn't that impressed by Holywood. Good start and then he really felt anonymous. If he came back at roughly the same cost I'd still be happy with him as a WR3, that's a good group. But if he wants a decent amount more I won't be upset if he leaves.

Wisconsin_Chief · 02-11-2025, 01:58 PM

This whole thread is kind of pointless, because after what just happened to Patrick AGAIN in the Super Bowl AGAIN, there should be no expense spared, both player/draft pick wise or salary wise, to acquire the absolute best LT that possibly comes available this offseason in their eyes. There is no discussion. Get the best goddamn left tackle there is. I don't even care if you have to trade McDuffie like was suggested, just ****ing do it.

This franchise needs to be very careful how they move forward. Pat just saw what's possible when you have a GM and owner who are actually willing to do whatever it takes to put the absolute best team on the field, and just what kind of team could still be built if this franchise was handling things the way they should instead of using Pat as their crutch to cover the countless warts he has for 5 years now. He's going to be 30 soon, and enough is enough.
