Recent Chiefs drafts

[smithandrew051]

Couple things:

1. Haven’t we traded 2 first round picks in that timeframe? That would impact this.
2. I bet this looks a lot better if you break it down yearly. We really only have 2 true starters from 2017 and 2018. 2019 and 2020 appear to be more promising.
3. Injuries, Opt Outs impacted Lucas Niang, Sneed, Thornhill, Saunders from the last 2 drafts.
4. When you have a loaded roster, playing time is going to be sparse for any “project-type” players. We’re contenders, so we can’t force rookies into the lineup and risk losing games (which could cost us the 1 seed).
