And I'm not saying it was a bad pick by any stretch. The Chiefs needed a safety (two) and got good ones in Berry and Lewis.
However, I would have rather have had Okung or Bulaga in the first and then use one of the second rounders we had last year on Nate Allen or TJ Ward rather than McCluster.
But Berry is a good guy and a solid player. And while I would have done it different, it was a good pick for the team.

We've had this discussion a hundred times.
Okung is not now, nor has he ever been, as good as you think he is.
Berry is going to be a top 3-top 5 safety, and will have a bigger impact on the defense than Okung on offense.
And Buluaga?
Holy shit.
You're a bigger idiot than I already imagined.
