I haven’t dug into the OT class as much as some here have, but I watched about every interview and read every report about when they took Fisher and trey did so because of his athletic ability, speed/movement ability and upside. I think once I start to dig in and identify the OTs that best fit that skill set, it will give us an idea of the pool of guys likely to be on the Chiefs board in the first. They want OTs that can get out and run and misdirection and screens to block linebackers and secondary guys. That’s why they invested in Fisher.
The only way I could see them moving up to get an OT is if there’s a run on them in the 20s and the group of OT targets they have dwindles down to 1 or 2 in the mid 20s...even then I’m not sure I can see it.
That’s how Veach got into trouble drafting Breeland Speaks and I’m sure he learned that lesson.
