And what if the Chiefs trade up to draft a guy in the 1st round, only to see Fisher and/or Schwartz return to form? Then what? They will have completely wasted a 1st round pick (at minimum) on a guy that's going to sit for 2 or 3 years?

The Chiefs have multiple needs and whomever they draft in rounds 1-3 needs to be ready to play and start Week 1. Waiting around for guys to "develop" or play is a massive waste of very important and unreplaceable resources.

The Chiefs can't afford another Dee Ford repeat, where the guy can't even contribute until Year 3 or 4, at least if they want to extend their Championship Window.

yeah I don't see it.

I think it's much more likely that we nab someone like Walker Little in the second or trade up in the third. He's got top flight potential but likely will need a year to be ready.

Then next year you could have two young bookend tackles ready to roll.

I've completely shut out all sports media aside from CP since the SB loss. No radio, ESPN, podcasts, youtube, articles....nothing.

The more I think about it, I think the Chiefs best case scenario is this:

- Sign a tier 2 WR in free agency
- Sign a couple veterans on the OL (T & C/G)
- Draft a DE in round 1 (or after trade down)
- All OL on day 2

I AM for taking a guy that may be a little raw but has first round physical ability like a Walker Little in the 2nd or 3rd. Schwartz coming back healthy would be a HUGE plus, but it is a back problem and he's 32 and there were rumors he'd retire after this contract is up anyway. I don't think it's a bad idea to nab a guy that may be a year away. Getting younger and cheaper will be a part of the equation as Mahomes' contract starts to be a factor.

I'm hopeful Niang is one answer long term. It would still be smart to have another.

I’m not convinced we’ll go all OL day 2. I think you’ll see one in the first 3 rds then another late rd development prospect.

Corner is a position I think we might sneak in fairly early. But again that depends on what happens this month.

Oh I’m not convinced they will either.

But ideally, if they can get a T and C/G that are on day 2 that would be perfect.

Trade up for OL? Im good with that. Stand pat for a DE? Sounds like a plan. Throw more weapons at Mahomes? COOL! A boss-ass LB? SURE!

We have a QB. Everything else is just gravy.
