Okay after 114 pages, I have come around a bit. I'm going to admit some things...
-I am too attached to the draft. The #29 pick is not as valuable as my evening Thursday with beers and friends watching the draft makes me think it is.
-I had already decided in my head a first was too much and hearing "first and a second" made my brain short circuit. In actuality when you look at the draft slot numbers it is only a slight overpay.
-I hear "domestic violence" and think oh shit not this again but I had not heard about his upbringing and story and it is not quite what I thought it was.
-I see those contract numbers and got triggered about overpaying but it appears this contract is manageable and doesn't prevent the Chiefs from signing any other current players.
-I clearly had not seen enough Clark film. I thought he was "good" and the Chiefs think he is "DMVP candidate good" and there is a wide chasm between those two.
-This guy is a monster. He reminds me more of Khalil Mack than anybody else.
I have come around on this pick. Imagine the Chiefs taking a center at 29 or taking a guy with the skills to be a defensive MVP candidate.
It's a good thing I'm not the GM.
