I think WR3 should be addressed if we don't resign Albert Wilson, otherwise I agree. The whole draft should be defense.

2nd - Edge Rusher
3rd (a) - NT/DE
3rd (b) - NT/DE
4th - CB
5th - ILB
7th - RB (someone for ST)

I think we are okay with Incompletrius. Not that we can't upgrade it, but i'd rather use the resource on a new LG, maybe even a backup swing tackle for when injuries occur.

No, that's not JJ Redick. He is under contract for the Sixers right now and isn't available for draft.

Coutee is interesting to me- he plays the slot receiver position which I believe is a need for the Chiefs and has played with Mahomes before. I'm not sure how well Coutee will transition to the NFL though as I see him as a better athlete than most of the guys in the NCAA and doesn't win necessarily by having outstanding routes.

When I look at the Chiefs offense I want my slot receiver to be a guy who understands coverages well, can make catches in traffic, and runs terrific routes (Jarvis Landry is a good example of the player type I'm after- not at his price tag though) . I'm not opposed to Coutee but I don't think he is the best fit. I think this offense has enough explosive players, I want a guy who is relied upon to move the sticks.

For those interested Coutee's draft comparison is John Brown.

I was thinking the same. Looks like a natural runner with a solid lean though. Doesn’t seem as elusive from an NFL standpoint as you’d want someone of his profile and size to be. Needs better and more consistent extension with his catches too. Would like to see his times but I’d have him as at most a 6th rounder right now.

Personally, if I were a GM, my philosophy would be to sign offensive players via free agency and draft almost exclusively defense, offensive line, and late round RB.

My theory is that offensive players are skill players, and skills can be developed over time. Also, the QB makes average WR look great (cough cough Albert Wilson).

Defense being so reliant on speed and athleticism, I'd rather get my young players there in the draft, rather than sign the Josh Normans of the world, who might excel in a scheme but not translate across the board. Additionally, so much of defensive success is based on uncontrollable variables, given its reactive nature. A CB who isn't thrown at doesn't get interceptions. An ILB with a shitty DL can't make tackles, etc. It's harder to gauge in FA, I feel like.

Also, I feel like Belichick has used this method for years. Populate your skill positions with inexpensive guys who can execute a scheme and draft defensive players.
