This was genius.
The Chiefs did not have the value at the positions that they wanted, so they traded down until they did.
They received twice as much value from the Browns (~250 points) that the jump from the Trade Chart suggested the jump would be worth (~120 points).
They traded the pick to a team that wasn't leapfrogging anybody in particular (the Colts weren't going to select Taylor).
And then they landed a player who has Pro Bowl potential, who is a deep threat, and can keep defenses honest. At a one-pick discount, too, since the Ravens weren't on the board.
All while landing us an EARLY 3rd round pick.
Bravo, Pioli. Bravo.
