Thibodeaux or J.Johnson, realistically - Page 2

Whats it going to cost and is it worth it? Would you do it?

Almost guaranteed to trade out, Carolina at 6.
This is their only pick until 137. They have a lot of holes and need more than 1 guy. Have stated they are open to trade down.

#6 is valued at 446. It is believed that trading down from the top is not going to be worth what it has been in the past and few teams are willing to trade up. Perhaps allowing a discount.

Chiefs really want a game changing DE and are willing to go up and get one!

Chiefs offer (A) 29 and 30. Value of 399 in exchange for 446? This seems like a big discount, not sure Carolina takes it.

Chiefs offer (B) 29, 50, 62 and 135. Value of 420 in exchange for 446. Slight discount and gives Carolina 4 picks before their current 137. They accept this offer, happy to still have a 1 and two 2s plus 135.

Chiefs draft Thibodeaux or Jermaine Johnson! Big win for the pass rush!

Stay with me now, thats not all...

Atlanta did NOT take a QB at 8 as they felt they could trade back into the end of round one, just need to get ahead of Detroit. Perfect!

Chiefs trade 30, value 196 to Atlanta for 43 and 74, value 202. They are willing to pay a slight mark up to jump Detroit and get that 5th year.

Chiefs now have Thibodeaux or J. Johnson at 6 plus 43, 74, 94, 103, 121, 233, 243, 251, 259.

Thats pretty sweet if you ask me. Not sure if we would pull off trading 30 to Atlanta but I feel pretty confident in the cost of going up to get one of the DEs.

If we had a deal for 30 I believe its a no brainer trade. Its way more scary if we dont trade 30.
That would leave us with 6, 30, 94, 103, 121, 233, 243, 251 and 259. I think we could work with that too.

Realistically what it would cost. Now who's on board?

Ugh, I hate the idea of giving up picks next year to go up to the top 10 in this draft.

I would honestly rather double trade back out of the first, add at least a 2nd next year.
