It's too big of a hole to leave on the roster and it's too much responsibility to leave with a rookie.
The Chiefs are drafting Geno and they are going to groom him much the same as the Packers did with Rogers. At this point, it's the one scenario that makes the most sense when you equate the free agent signings and philosophy that seems to be being applied to the team. They want to win now and instill a confidence in this team while grooming Geno under Reid for two years or so.

There are a few other scenarios that make sense to this team besides Geno.
