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. |

Maybe thats why the Chiefs were ready to pull the trigger so fast. The Bears had contacted them about moving up?

They may have found out late we wanted Baldwin and backed out. That dude from the league that deals with the trades looked ****ing pissed. I think Chicago backed out somehow when they realized they didn't need to make a deal. |

The whole world thinks we're going Carimi there, the Bears desperately need OL help, and you think that a.) Chicago wanted Baldwin and b.) they KNEW they had to jump us to take him? Jesus ****, people. Occam's Razor. |
