I would have liked Minkah there... but, my hope was a trade down. I don't view Chubb as a luxury, I think he can contribute Day 1 and with the way injuries happen and how critical the front 7 is, I was fine with the pick. Again, would rather have seen them trade down and pick up 2-3 extra picks.
And I don't blame you there. NONE of those QB's were worth a damn, and Baker Mayfield is a DOUCHE (Would have LOVED for Denver to have drafted him)

I get the trade down move, and would have been all in for doing that, but had I been running Denver's draft, and watching it unfold as it did, I'd have drafted Chubb also. He was the one guy left that I would not have risked losing by acquiring more picks. I think he was a very good pick. I think Wade Phillips turns him into a beast. Joseph & Co., not so sure, but the potential is there. Have to wait and see how it works out.

I think it's cool how the division is shaping up. Going to be strength on strength. Offense Heavy teams (KC & Oak) vs Defensive Heavy Teams (SD & Den). Whoever's weakness is the least will win it. This year I see KC as "slipping for the better" and reloading with a young gun-slinger for a QB. If he is all THAT- and I think that he is - then next year, after adding more defense, I think KC is primed for a dominant run - we shall see.
