An interesting Mock by Chad Reuter

I don't really think they need to draft more edge players, they need their current edge players to be healthy.

They need DL and secondary players.

And if they don’t get healthy, I’m sick of seeing Frank zombo

Sure, but there's 10 other spots on the field.

Yes and they have more picks. They’ll fill a lot of holes on defense in this draft.

I think it's hard to say they'll "fill holes" with mid-round picks, especially with what people seem to be asking for around here, but I do understand what you're getting at.

That said, I do expect a 2nd round guy to be a significant contributor and I'd prefer that guy to be a CB or that the Chiefs package picks and move up for one. I'd expect the 3rd round guys to be rotational players at best early on, but I do believe your best chance to "fill holes" at that point is to draft TE, OL, S and RB. I feel if the Chiefs come away with one or two of those, it would be a boost to the team. Obviously, RB isn't a need but you can concoct any combination of the other 3.

I don't expect later picks to be much more than a craps shoot, but I'd definitely prefer some developmental prospects on the D-Line/Edge, O-line, and QB. Kick in a special teamer if possible and I think it's a solid draft effort.

Yah, but I trust this scouting department and front office overall enough to believe they can find value in rounds 4,6,7. They have done it before. Not saying long-term studs but they can find rotational guys and some good pieces (rotational guy RNR, long term RG in LDT).

I agree with you. It feels like a Corner in round 2 and a safety in round 3 would be two areas where the Chiefs could get a starter and a rotational player. Dline, we already signed all the same guys as last year (RNR, Jenkins as depth) so you may as well look at a developmental guy behind those.

I want DaRon Payne more than just about everyone in this draft

Edit: imagine a DL of Payne Williams/Hill and Jones.


Also love Rasheem Green in this draft

I like Payne, but I'd rather have someone with more pass rush upside, like Hurst. Even Settle has more pass rush I think on the interior. On balance, even a disrupter like RJ McIntosh has more appeal

Payne has pass rush potential. He proved it in the playoffs

Don't get me wrong, I'd be ecstatic if we got Payne, just can't see any way it happens. Hurst was more effective and I can dream that the heart issue etc makes him fall.

It’s not happening. I’m just saying I’d love to have him
