Those 4 are guys I'm personally kind of targeting, which of course means nothing at all. In Veach I trust, but I think at least a couple of those guys will be there at #64 and I'd be really surprised if we don't grab one.
Personally, I'm more on the DE in round one train as I think a legit pass rush threat opposite Clark would make that line a dominant one and the defense into a top 5 type defense.

Completely agree about DE in round 1. That’s where I see value at in the draft and considering positional value and need, so I think we need to grab one while we can. It could be Phillips, Oweh, Ossai, or even Ojulari if they think they can get creative, but there’s going to be a pass rusher that is too good to pass up there.
As for Eichenbeg, I think he’s a LT for a power running scheme, but if you’re drafting him for the Chiefs, Niang projects better to LT. In other words, if they’re taking him at 31 it’s to play RT only.
