Mock (2/10)
Assumptions:
1. The Chiefs franchise: OT Orlando Brown. 3. The Chiefs cut: DE Frank Clark, ILB Anthony Hitchens 4. The Chiefs extended: WR Tyreek Hill for 4 years, $80m ($52m guaranteed), WR Byron Pringle for 2 years, $6m; DE Melvin Ingram, 1 year 6 million ($1m guaranteed); CB Charvarious Ward for 4 years, $40m ($18m guaranteed). 5. The Chiefs tender: WR Marcus Kemp, TE Jody Fortson, CB Chris Lammons 6. The Chiefs re-sign to minimal deals: RB Jerick McKinnon, RB Darrel Williams, RB Derrick Gore, FB Michael Burton, TE Blake Bell, OG Andrew Wylie, C Austin Blythe, DT Derrick Nnadi; LB Ben Niemann, LB Dorian O'Daniel, CB Mike Hughes 7. The Chiefs let walk: WR Demarcus Robinson, WR Josh Gordon, OT Mike Remmers, OT Prince Tega Wanogho, OG Kyle Long, DT Jarran Reed, DE Alex Okafor, CB DeAndre Baker, S Tyrann Mathieu, S Dan Sorensen, S Armani Watts. 8. The Chiefs sign WR Odell Beckham Jr. (Rams) for 2 years, $30m ($16m guaranteed), DT Akiem Hicks (Bears) for 2 year, $22m, ($9m guaranteed), DE Randy Gregory (Cowboys) for 1 year, $13m ($1m guaranteed), LB Damien Wilson (Jaguars) to vet minimum, S Xavier Woods (Vikings) for 1 year, $5m, S Ronnie Harrison (Browns) for 2 years, $7m. 9. The Chiefs are currently predicted to get two 7th round compensatory picks, but I'm going to assume neither is actually awarded, as the NFL only hands them out to the top 32 compensatory picks, and last year, there were no 7th round compensatory picks awarded. The draft: 1. DE Travon Walker, Georgia 2. WR David Bell, Purdue 3. S Kerby Joseph, Illinois 3 (Poles). DE Sam Williams, Ole Miss 4. OT/G Andrew Steuber, Michigan 7 (Hughes). DT Thomas Booker, Stanford 7. LB Merlin Robertson, Arizona State 7 (Durant). CB Jermaine Waller, Virginia Tech the roster: QB: Mahomes, Buechele RB: Edwards-Helaire, Williams, McKinnon, Gore FB: Burton WR: Hill, Beckham, Pringle, Hardman, Bell, Kemp TE: Kelce, Bell, Gray, Fortson LT: Brown, Thuney LG: Thuney, Allegretti C: Humphrey, Blythe RG: Smith, Allegretti RT: Wylie, Steuber, Niang (IR to start year) DE: Gregory, Walker, Kaindoh DT: Jones, Wharton, Saunders DT: Hicks, Nnadi, Booker DE: Ingram, Danna, Williams OLB: Gay, O'Daniel ILB: Bolton, Niemann OLB: Wilson, Robertson CB: Sneed, Ward, Fenton, Hughes, Lammons, Waller S: Thornhill, Woods, Harrison, Joseph, Anderson K: Butker P: Townsend LS: Winchester |

Bahhh, I still couldn't figure out the CB position. I'd like to see an upgrade at CB, but stocking that DL took a lot of my resources, and I just ran out of cap space and draft picks to do anything meaningful there.
Every other position I'm really satisfied with. |

Just a few nitpicky things.
Kemp can't be tendered. He's an unrestricted FA. Gore is an ERFA. Why not tender him? |

Secondary is hit or miss. We need bodies there but he hasn't ever spent huge capital there. I saw a tweet that Butker has more money than Veach has spent on CB (individual contracts). |

Waiting till the last pick for a CB like Waller would be a dream

I'm not nuts about Beckham or Gregory. If you're spending $15 AAV on Beckham, I feel like you can get Allen Robinson for a similar value.
Gregory is fine but I think there are better options at DE for that price point. I like the Hicks addition. He's not going to do great playing NT for you, but he would add more oomph to the interior rush. I also just don't have a ton of interest in David Bell. Just don't think he's athletic enough to be an impact guy in the NFL. Lots of other directions I'd rather go round 2 (Christian Watson, John Metchie, Doubs).

The team we have is too talented on the top end, and the positions we need the worst (WR, DL, S) are just too hard to find Day One starters at the bottom of the 1st. I've been doing mocks on this board since Herm Edwards, and those days I was able to secure like 4 or 5 projected starters with every mock, because the team was so lousy. What's a Day One starter we could realistically draft at 30? Probably a stud CB, or a LB, or for some reason a stud RB if we went that route. Maybe that's a thread I'll start. |

They could take nearly any position of need in round 1 and they could at least be a rotational starter. Even if they take a WR (one that's not injured, of course) that player is going to contribute right away.

I think you could take Brisker at 30 and start him at the SS spot in place of Mathieu day one. You’d probably have some growing pains but that’s a Spags defense every season.

A DE like Thomas would at least be a candidate for a rotational starter as soon as they are drafted. |

I think Brisker is my guy at 30. I’ve flirted with DE at that spot but DE is deep going into the 2nd round.
