The chiefs have already spent a 1st round pick, 3rd round pick, and 2nd round pick on LTs the last few years that are either off the team already or are deemed unplayable. At some point they have to get a permanent solution and that will either be paying big bucks and/or picks for a free agent/trade or trading up for one. So regardless of how, if we want a permanent solution to the LT issue, it's going to take taking risks and just believing in your scouting and evaluation skills.

Who is that player then?
This isn't a great draft for tackles. And even if it was, you're making a Mahomes-like trade for one player. What if that player is Luke Joeckel instead of Eric Fisher?
There's a world of difference between a calculated risk and just being dumb.
If there was a Joe Alt in this draft, sure go get him. There really isn't this year and if there was, we'd have to give up our entire draft to get up high enough.
At this point it doesn't even matter if it's a good move or a bad move, its a non-starter. It's not going to happen.
