I'm gonna go out on a limb and say the guy they really covet is Olave. I'm not sure Williams is even #2 on their list but that's just me spitballing.

Not me. Pickens has the far higher ceiling.

I disagree.

I know you guys are sick of the Williams talk, but he’s a perfect fit if we’re just talking what their board would be all things even.

All things aren't even, though. That's the fundamental issue with the people wanting Williams.

By all accounts, he’s way ahead of schedule, and there’s no reason to think he doesn’t make a full recovery. It’s very likely that he will play this year too.

It’s still not enough for me personally to drop him from the #1 spot, and I don’t think it would be for the Chiefs either.

Agreed. Not only is Burks on their board, he's near the top, IMO.

If he's healthy, he's not dropping. We'd have to trade up. Why? When there's so many other guys available?

I'd MUCH rather have Burks at 29/30 than trading up for anybody.

Dude, who said anything about trading up? Lol

This discussion is simply about what the Chiefs board would look like.

All things being equal, I think the team ranks them:

1) Jameson Williams
2) Garrett Wilson
3) Chris Olave
4a and 4b) Treylon Burks and Drake London
6a and 6) Christian Watson or George Pickens
8a and 8b and 8c) Skyy Moore and Jahan Dotson and John Metchie III
11a and 11b) Jalen Tolbert and Alec Pierce

I'd probably have Burks a few slots lower in my own ranking, behind Metchie, who I think is criminally underrated in this draft.

If he ain't dropping and they ain't trading up, how would he be on their board?

Umm you realize that every team makes a board and starts with the best player in the draft, right?

1.Williams
2. Olave
3. Wilson
4. Watson
5. Pickens
6. London
7. Burks
8. Moore
9. Dotson
10. Tolbert
11. Austin

Of course...

As I said before, all things not being equal I believe they would have Wilson and Olave before Williams.

Juju is under contract for one year. Even if they are similar they wouldn't pass on drafting him just because of a player not here beyond 2022.

This is pretty much my "board" if I were to have one. I have no scouting talent but from the research I've done and opinions I've read, along with watching highlights I think this is about perfect. I'd probably rank Pickens above Watson just based on competition faced.
