Hear me out here fellas: Troy Fautanu
I think there’s a real chance he falls like McDuffie did. He’s under 6’4”, some teams think he’s a G and not a tackle and he turns 24 in October so he’s an older player. Jordan Schultz just tweeted that Amarius Mims is going to go early. I think you could see Alt, Fashanu, Mims, Fuaga and Latham all go before this guy. If the Chiefs trade up I think he could be on the short list

Would be hard to pass on Thomas. Some of the NFL guys have maybe broken my brain on him a bit though. Folks saying "He's the WR1 in any normal class..." maybe has me a little too high on him now. I just don't think Odunze is a generational prospect. If Thomas is clearly behind him, then I think he's probably a relatively normal 'very good' prospect that's probably the WR2 most years. That's still a top 10-12 guy who may see 16-18 due to the depth of the class. I just haven't gotten a strong enough read on him to form a good opinion on him. Every time I think I'm comfortable with it, I change my mind.

You know what his last three articles have been? ****ing off with the PFF draft simulator. That's literally all he's done. "This is the top guy at 32 when I select, here's his report from Brugler..." "If the Chiefs offered X, Y and Z to the Seahawks, the PFF simulator says there's a 62% chance of that happening and then they might be able to get Brian Thomas Jr, who's often there as late as 20..." He's offering less informed analysis than you'd get from close to a dozen guys on this very chat board. It's ****ing annoying. It's really really bad. And he's cast a wide enough net that no matter what happens, he'll take a victory lap and insist he had it right. His draft coverage annoys the hell out of me every single year.

Lot of smoke about the OTs and IDK whether to buy it or not.
However, the fact that the only consensus top-40 guy we've met with being Kingsley makes me think they just wanted to verify what they were already leaning toward there. So I will predict Kingsley Suamataia, with an outside chance of it being a smokescreen for their WR pick that would be McConkey or Worthy. |

I don't think Patrick Paul is off the board for us tomorrow either; that length is a wet dream for Andy

If it were my job - I'd take Fautanu. Protect the franchise. As a fan, the idea of a legit badass WR1 with dynamic deep threat ability is just awfully exciting. I'd be more enthusiastic about Thomas. I'd also have to acknowledge that Fautanu is probably the 'smart' play.

He's already a better route runner than Hardman was coming out, and he can actually track the ball, and he does is extremely well. |

The question I have with Worthy is ceiling. Is there any additional room for growth there at all? I really question if there is. If everything we see from him in college translates to the pros, he's Hollywood Brown, right? And that's pretty much what he'll be until age takes the speed away. There's not a ton else to develop; he's not going to get bigger or more physical. Which makes him a guy I like as a potential trade-up option in the mid-2nd but I just don't see him being my favorite player on the board in the 1st.

So looking at history.....I don't think I'd be too open to trading that much to get up and take the 4th WR in the class. Is it a historic all time class of WR's, because unless it is, there's probably just as good of a chance that the 7th best WR ends up as good as the 4th.
