Trade down draft thoughts?

[BlackOp]

The Chiefs best players have come from the 3rd round (and lower)...Charles, Houston, Kelce, Hill....Creed was a late 2nd, Sneed (4th), T. Smith was a 5th.

It's people's natural inclination to assume the higher pick, the better the player. It hasn't been the case in with KC.

One thing that doesn't get talked about is Reid and Spagnuolo have very specific schemes...which make identifying player fits a bit easier. Veach has been with Reid for years and was an ex-scout. They also have superior position coaches which aides in development.

All three AFCW teams have either a first year staff which is just learning their rosters..or a 2nd year (LA).

I dont follow the draft like most of you...but the consensus is it's a deep draft but light at the top. Chiefs moving back would allow BV to maneuver around the 2nd-4th to get specific players.

There are FA WRs that can help KC after the draft...Watkins, Landry, Fuller. They shouldn't move up unless they think the player is a no-miss star.

Watkins is an interesting play...as he already knows the system and should be fairly cheap. There arent any veteran Wrs in that group right now..

Is it a coincidence that the two highest paid WRs just happened to come from teams with the 2 best QBs?

Take the BPA...build your future team. Chiefs have almost 2 full drafts this year...it's a rare opportunity to leave their division in the dust. Raiders/Donks dont have draft capital..all three have QB contracts coming due.
