That guy looks awesome. Leverage player that packs a punch.

I think it makes sense to trade down for a 2nd and a 4th maybe. My fingers are crossed for Clyde Edwards-Helaire end up on the roster though. Not sure if he'll be the first pick drafted.

Brett Veach said something similar yesterday.

This is gonna be fun. https://t.co/09Ud5zAHnQ

Veach knows what he’s ****ing doing!

Okay, here's my final final. Watched lots of tape, and taking into account who might actually be there when we pick if we don't trade back (which I'd love to see us do)....

Patrick Queen LB LSU

Dude is a straight-up baller with almost unlimited potential. He completely jumps out at you watching tape. He'd fill multiple weak spots on our defense.

fyi - I like Murray even more, just don't think he'll be there when we pick.

Same! Veach said they will fill the coverage LB through the draft after missing out on Nick Vigil. Patrick Queen fits that mold perfectly!

[BryanBusby]

Neither of them are going to be there at 32. Like basically everyone CP is clamoring for will probably be gone by the time we pick.

That's the fun of picking at the end of the round.

Veach and everyone around the league say that there will be players available at #32 when people thought they wouldn’t be there.

Veach said no such thing.

Nate Taylor did put out a story back in March that the Chiefs would look hard for a coverage LB either via FA or the draft — originally reported by Adam Caplan IIRC. Well, we didn’t get one in FA, so I think it’s highly likely they draft one early. Especially since it would appear they are moving Wilson back to SAM.

I think somebody will be looking to move up to get a Delpit, an Offensive lineman that falls or Love. It'll come down to how much of a deal teams are willing to make.

I don't know what teams see in Love as a 1st rounder but it sure seems like some team will "fall in love with him" in the first round.

I’ve come around to really believe that so much of a QBs long-term success comes down to organizational fit. Very few can excel about anywhere they go. I think Mahomes would be incredible no matter where he got picked, but there’s no way he’s this guy right now had he been picked by Jacksonville.

If a guy like Love or Eason gets scooped up by New Orleans, I like their chances of becoming at least quality starters. Most teams though, that’s probably not going to be the case for them unfortunately.
