Potential 1st round Targets
WR:
Troy Franklin, Oregon Adonai Mitchell, Texas Xavier Worthy, Texas Ladd McConkey, Georgia OT: Tyler Guyton, Oklahoma Kingsley Suamataia, BYU Jordan Morgan, Arizona CB: Kool-Aid McKinstry, Alabama Typically, we draft a guy from this list every year that I've been doing it. Anybody you guys feel should/shouldn't be on there? |
I'd say Worthy would be one of the WR's.
I am kinda sneaky thinking CB might be a spot they'd look at. |
Jer'Zhan Newton
And you must mean Byron Murphy II as your DT. |
Quote:
And I'm not putting Newton in there, because I ultimately see no chance that he makes it to our range. |
Quote:
It's obviously very early, but Murphy seems to be nearly a consensus top 15-ish pick. |

Tyler Guyton makes alot of sense. I'm not a huge fan, but I see the appeal.
|
If there is any shred of truth to us wanting Mazi Smith last year, then I'd have T'Vondre Sweat on this list.
Personally, I'd have Xavier Worthy on the list too. I know he's not on everyone's 1st round list but he is going top 45 IMO. |
I second T'Vondre Sweat and Xavier Worthy, and I'd add Xavier Legette to the bottom of the WR list if we're also including Sanders. I think both have an early 2nd round grade. I'm personally not an A. Mitchell fan, his play speed looks too slow to me, someone talk me into him!?
|
If Jones is back, then I'm leaning OT in the 1st and grabbing a WR in the 2nd again.
|
I think Legette is going to ****ing dominate. By the time the combine is over he is going to be a mid first rounder.

Any chance Brock drops to the mid-late teens due to size concerns?

Ok, added Worthy and Sweat.
Took Murphy off. If Legette absolutely explodes at the combine, he'll probably be added as well. |

I know people hate it but I'm still interested in Tyron Smith at LT in FA. If he holds up that is an elite LT. A big IF. |
I’d remove Morgan after he measured in with 33” arms. Cant see Reid/Heck breaking their pattern there.

I think it's gonna be one of those years where every single mock has us taking one position (WR) and it doesn't fall that way. No way Veach is reaching.
Is there a dynamic TE or DT likely to be on the board at 32? |
Quote:
Removed Morgan and added Legette. |
Quote:
As for TE, Ja'Tavion Sanders from Texas fits the bill. He'll definitely be on my short list. |
Sanders has really caught my eye.
I don't know that I'd put Legette up there that high. I'm just not sure he's a first round WR. |
I think our best bet right now, barring anyone falling, is an OT at 32.

But that TE....yeah, he might. |
Quote:
Guyton and Amegadjie, along with possibly 'Tez Walker. Those are the 3 guys I keep circling around. I occasionally see Mims slide to us and I'd sprint to the podium to grab him, but I see that as a major long-shot. |
Quote:
|
Mims would be the one I'd really target, but I seem to be one of the only ones that really like Guyton
But if you go T, isn't that essentially closing the door on Wanya already? |

(Am I doing that right?) |
Some of it will depend what FA looks like but apparently Koolaid McKinstry is listed right around our area, that could happen.
|
Yes, I believe so.
|
If they keep Sneed, I'd imagine Cb is eliminated off the first round board.
I kinda wonder....is there a S that would be a good fit in that spot? |
Quote:
|
Safety would be overkill.
I think your most likely spots are WR, OT, DT or DE depending on who's there. |
DE is intriguing to me, but 3 straight years?

Yes, he is a physical beast and has a ton of potential, but only 7 starts at RT? |

Just looking at this list, and trying to make one, it's hard not to come away thinking that there will 100% be more late 1st to earl 2nd WRs available than OT and DT.
If Guyton, Murphy, and Newton are gone, I think it's WR or Sanders at 32. |
It's possible. Alot of this will be sorted in FA.
|
Quote:
I like the guy. I just can't talk myself into a 1st round TE this year. The immediate returns won't be there and I'm living in the now for at least the next season and very possibly the next 2. |
We are literally here at LT..
Bring back Don Smith Start Wanya Morris or 1st round OT That's it. |

Yes, there's depth at the WR position. But I think there's a solid chance that the person we're looking at at 32 is maybe 5% better than a guy we could get at 64. Walker vs. McMillan is the sort of example I'd use here. That's just not going to be the case at OT. I think there's a really good chance there are D1 contributors in the 2nd or even 3rd round at WR and on the DL. I'm not seeing that at Offensive Tackle. |

So, pick your poison, I suppose. |

If there are 10 blue chippers when there are ordinarily only 5 and there's a lot of depth at other key positions of need, that line could get pushed so that someone like Harrison (who actually sucked last season) goes at 32 instead of 28. And you hope you hit rather than have him struggle all season like Anton did. I do think that Guyton has a better tool set than Harrison did, FYI. And he's similarly 'ranked' within this OT class. So I don't think it's beyond consideration that he may slide just a little further than Harrison despite being a little better prospect. |
Quote:
If we're counting on a LT falling into our lap, it's Kingsley. Even he might require a small trade up in front of the 49ers (which would be hilarious). |
Here's the thing though, the Chiefs are a pretty good team for developing linemen. Look at Trey Smith as an example. We're also positioned well to let an OT develop for a year, similar to FAU, although fans wouldn't be happy. Taylor, Morris, Niang, and probably a returning Smith give us that luxury. Nothing more important than protecting Pat.

They could use a pick next year to do that. If you think Kingsley is the long term answer at LT, you do it without hesitation. |

I hated the idea of a trade up to 16. I didn't see a notable drop-off from about 10 to 40. I just can't see myself being willing to use two 1st round picks on the 4th best OT in this class and that's likely what you're looking at in the mid-1st, no? Alt? Sure. Fashanu, yup. But man, then you're looking at probably Latham and Fuaga, right? Am I happy giving up 2 first rounders for either of those? Certainly not Latham (don't think he has the feet for this system). Maybe Fuaga. If I were pretty confident that Mims could make the transition to LT maybe, but that's still a little scary given his inexperience. And then you're in the Fautanu/Guyton range and there's no way I'm giving up that much for those guys. I'd have to sell myself on Latham's feet, Fuaga's length or Mim's inexperience and man that's a tough sell for that kind of draft capital. |

No way. I'm just not that hard up for a guy like Suamataia. Again, now we're at like the 6th best OT. I'll spin the wheel and take my chances. Because if OTs get blasted like that, someone else is going to slide. 30 guys can't go top 20. |

Watching all the WRs again. I have to say, I think I'm out on Mitchell in round 1. He's off the list for me.
I'd rather have Legette or Worthy. |

I like worthy a lot |

I wonder if we couldn't come away with two of the players on this list in the first 2 rounds.
Depends on which site's board you favor, might require a trade up, but it could be possible. |
