And let players like Michael Pittman, Tee Higgins, DeAndre Swift, and Jonathan Taylor go by them.

Look at Pittman and Higgins value now.

The pick itself was bad. No defending that part.

I’m just talking about the philosophy behind it. Jonathan Taylor was the clear top running back and would’ve been a Homerun in hindsight.

The Chiefs failed in their evaluation of the running backs, but not their philosophy in taking one.

And I normally hate first round running backs.

You don't just take a RB in round 1.

You only take a RB if you think you have a Breece Hall or something there.

CEH they said reminded them of Brian Westbrook.





I didn't hate CEH, actually liked him that draft but there were 3 obvious guys ahead:

I had

Swift(valued the catching so I put him ahead of Taylor for KC)
Taylor
Dobbs


then CEH
