No one is coming in day one and locking this position down. It’s just not happening.

And I love how everyone knocks a player like Niang or Little for not playing football in a year (yes I get they had injuries as well) but they won’t to blow two first round picks to get Sewell....who hasn’t played football in a year.
Sewell is 20 and could legitimately be an Orlando Pace type LT so I get the want.

Kind of similar to J Chase.

Tall— >6’5”
Long arms— >34 inches
Smart
Athletic

There was an article on Andy’s affinity for long arms in linemen with a lot of telling data. I’ll see if I can find it

Well you’re going to have a hard time finding a LT at 31 that meets all of those requirements...

It’s almost like we’d be better off signing a stop gap, going elsewhere at 31, and taking somebody like Little or Forsythe on day 2....

My two are Radunz or Little right now.

The more I look around, I might be more inclined to do that. But I also would just play him this year. With Thuney next to him, I think they could coach him up.

Sidenote: I really hope the Chargers don’t get get this guy. He looks like a future stud

Or we trade up for a Teven Jenkins like Nate Taylor projected (assuming he’s in range). I think Nate has good info.

Idk why but I see Jenkins as a Steeler. I don’t think they pass on him

His arms are under 35”...

So, are the issues outlined legitimate enough to make KC pass or are they being overblown by over-analysis? I have a hard time thinking they'd not be enticed by coaching up a guy like Cosmi but maybe he's just not good enough.
See, this is where I've kind of always been on this and why I've been so vocal about it...

I don't think they're legitimate enough to pass up a LT altogether but in my mind, there's just NO WAY I trade up in this draft for a LT. The only one really worth it is Sewell and that would cost us more than we gave up for Mahomes. I just can't say that's a good idea.

Theres a ton of guys this year with short arms.

Seems like that's a non-starter for the Chiefs.

But it does seem like they really like Jenkins, so who knows?

Has Jenkins had his pro day yet?

The Franchise 04-01-2021 09:50 AM
Just saw that it’s today.

Yea it’s today, but sounds like his arm length is expected to be around 33”.

Good. Now can he play LT? Hasn’t he played RT his entire career?
