Also this team has spent more money on the defense than the offense for the last 5 years. A lot of those picks really aren't good but lets also remember over the last 5-6 years the Chiefs are one of the best drafting teams in the league, it's impossible to hit every single pick.
One of the best? I don't know about that. Overall, better than average but then again, the draft is a crap shoot for everybody.

The problem is that Dorsey and Reid hit on guys like Hill and Kelce but missed on picks you absolutely cannot miss on. Their first rounders (outside of Mahomes) have been awful. In fact, the single biggest reason the defense is off is because of missing on Dee Ford. If Dee Ford was a 1st round pass rusher, the whole defense would look different.
