You aren't a six year NFL starter if you are "just a guy."
And considering that McGrath, prior to this season, only had one year of college ball at miniscule Henderson State and he was getting open/beating coverage from the get go, which, if you can extrapolate that, means he's got a lot of room for growth even after showing a lot on the field this past season.
Amaro at this point is the guy who is JAG. He's an unproven college kid that could bust. Who knows if he is able to get open on the next level? But what I do know is that Fasano and McGrath most certainly can. And Kelce is what you want drafted that just got drafted last season.
You don't embrace redundancy at TE, especially when you've got the holes the Chiefs do at WR, FS and OL (and even DL depending upon what they do with Jackson).
It's a deep draft for the TE position. They don't need to spend a first rounder on a guy when they have that guy and could get another guy later in the draft.
That's just silly.
