This was a very logical draft..actually the $28 million draft, IMO. Hali, Flowers, Daniels...and McCluster. Hali is around $10 million next year as is Flowers...Chase is $4 million and Dexter got something around $4 million this year. KC was strapped and couldn't maneuver in FA. Flowers is an above average under-sized corner playing in the wrong system and Hali will be 32.
Would I have liked KC to take Lee at 23....sure...but then they would have to draft Hali's replacement next season and not have him around to mentor Ford. Smith and Houston are going to get paid and this is how the Chiefs plan on doing it.
It's a pretty solid strategy as the offense wasn't the issue over the last 8 games...not to mention Kelce is like a 2014 draft pick as is Commings..except they have a year under their belts in the system.
