I am asking:
If you don't think you can catch up with the talent on a SB winning team, don't you lean toward getting a lot of change in personnel and at the same time dump a bunch of players into Free Agency. That invites a bear bias in salary cap. You are looking to erode the distance in play between haves and have nots in known talent. I don't know how each team at the top and bottom of play looks in their cap and obligations but there are 24 teams that didn't make the playoffs and may be looking for reshuffle of each teams players. |

Respectfully, we would never be The Colts. Also, we're loaded with weapons, and the likelihood that we'll just stop looking at offensive weapons is nil. Worrying about 3 to 4 years down the road when you have glaring deficiencies makes no sense. It would seem, based on the mocks I'm seeing and draft grades that this class of OT's is talented and deep; and it's possible to get a day one starter perhaps as late the end of the second/top of the third. It seems to be a very deep WR class too; and honestly, I see not all that much space between the first rounders and the third and fourth rounders. At any rate, zero chance any drafted WR starts in year one in this offense. ZERO. It ain't happening. He'd have some play packages, just like Reid does with all of his new toys until they have digested enough to play the whole offense. That doesn't generally happen until year 2 at the earliest. I also don't expect there to be a huge problem bringing either Robinson or Pringle back, it's not like they're going to get huge offers. And they should bring one back, and they should still draft at least a middle round talent to groom. DE is also a need, and is an area where I DO see some drop-off once you get into the middle rounds. Still, some guys may fall, but I feel like you won't get a 'difference maker' type beyond round two. You can get some solid players later, though. |

And while I don't completely agree (there are WR's that could contribute day 1 if both Sammy and DRob are let go) on the WR, my point was this:
If you take an OT at #32, he HAS to start day 1. If he doesn't, you've just thrown away a ton of value. We can afford to have a WR slow ramp into the offense. We can't afford to take an OL and have them not be a starter. If you're going to draft for need, you have to be damn sure you fill the need. |

I think it needs to be DE or OT in rounds one and two, personally. Possibly in either order, based on mocks. |

And absolutely if you take a T at 32, he starts day one.

Kelce got 145 targets, Hill 135, Hardman 62... Some here bitch and moan about Hardman noting being used more, and we all agree that CEH will be more involved in the passing game moving forward, but yet some want to spend a first round pick on a WR. I just don't get it. Yeah we need to replenish the position, but I don't think it requires high draft picks. I mean we have the best QB on the planet. I'm pretty sure he can create stars. |

I just don't get all of the panic about the offensive line.
The past few nights, the NFL Network has replayed the 2018 regular season game against the Patriots as well as the AFC Championship game, and regardless of who has started, the line performed fine, whether it was Wylie or LDT or Cam Erving at LG or any iteration. I think there's a better than good chance that the Chiefs starting offensive line will be either Fisher or a fill-in at LT, Allegretti, Reiter, LDT and Wylie, if Schwartz is actually retires. I think it would be great if the Chiefs can re-sign Remmers and Wiz as backups, leaving Niang and a draftee to battle out at LT. I could see them snagging another IOL from the 5th-7th, watch the guy sit for a year, then move into the RG or Center position. But I just cannot envision a scenario in which they draft a pair of tackles and a center while forcing them to start the 2021 season. That just doesn't jibe with Veach and Reid's philosophy. |
