If Jenkins is the 4th tackle off the board at say 25 rather than 20, then Cosmi is likely there at 31. I don't see the point in throwing away draft picks like that.
EDIT: At this point, I actually HOPE the plan is to have Niang at LT and Remmers at RT. I'd MUCH rather take a developmental tackle than put a bunch of extra picks into the position. This team NEEDS cheap playmakers going forward above everything else. I get that the goal is to protect Patrick Mahomes. The best way to do that is to build a team with as few weaknesses as possible. They need not only quality starters but quality depth and they need it to be cheap. You can't build a team that way by continuously trading away draft picks.

Here’s what they’ve said:
-they like the depth in this class
-they think Niang can play LT and aspired to put him there
-Remmers is a starting tackle (RT)
-Long has been a pro bowl tackle (RT)
I think that means they like their options in td 2 at RT. Leatherwood, Little, Radunz, Forsythe, Brown.
That would be great bc rd 1 could be their impact player at WR, corner or DE and the developmental tackle could sit and learn for a year with Remmers starting and Long as a backup in case of injury
I really like that plan
