Just me spitballing here....
The roster is in good shape and there are not a lot of glaring needs. I think a few things will dictate the pick at #32: 1) Unexpected drop of a top 20-25 player on their board 2) I think the interior offensive line, and yes, the cornerback position is artificially inflated in this draft. The Breeland signing mitigates a bit of the need at Corner. 3) Linebacker is the biggest need. The Chiefs need a coverage backer, and a replacement for Ragland. Depending how the board falls, the Chiefs might find themselves in a position where the elite corners are gone, Murray, Queen, and Simmons will be long gone, and then they might be left looking at offensive skill positions or slightly reaching on interior offensive line help. - I think if one of the top 3 LB’s are on the board, that will be the pick. Large need at the position, and the players are worthy of that draft slot. - Names to look for if the lb’s are gone?: Epenesa, Gross-Matos, Becton, Jones as surprise sliders. - If the Chiefs think they can get great value later in the draft at running back or wide receiver, I think that is where they will draft offense. But I also think there is an argument that can be made where the elite safeties McKinney and Delpit,could easily be the pick because of their versatility. |

DaneMcCloud is definitly off about the RB position but after CB and LB, it is the biggest need along with IOL.
RB is arguably the easiest position to find quality in the lower rounds, UDFA or even the remaining free agents. |

The truth is, most of the leagues best backs come in rounds 1-3. |

Who was the last super bowl winning team that had a stud running back? Seahawks with Marshawn Lynch?

Not going to have a 1,000+ yard rusher on this team as that is not the offense we operate.

If the Chiefs had a Kareem Hunt type player last season, they not only would have won more games but they most likely would have had a healthier Patrick Mahomes all season. |

Only a guy that can routinely make something from nothing could've done that. Hunt isn't that kind of back. Jamaal Charles in his prime could have I suppose. I'm not arguing that we couldn't use an upgrade at RB but I see IOL as a fairly desperate need for upgrade |

Kareem was that guy on this team before he was released, so that's bullshit.

Guys like spencer ware and Carlos Hyde are always available for next to nothing. Draft o line or defense early
