It’s a fun dramatic media story.
Just to add, the Chiefs did not have a great draft. I love Jaden Hicks and I think that he was their best pick. The linemen they added are meh and they gave up a third to move up a few spots. The TE is interesting. If Worthy is good, it’s fine. I would not trade our draft for theirs.

I think it makes a ton of sense to churn through late round RBs for 4 year rookie contracts and never pay any of them. In that case, his age really does not matter. The tread on the tire doesn’t matter. What does matter is that there is a maturity in his game and his body that make him plug and play and very cheap labor for the next 4 years.

I think it makes sense to check in on Simmons, Quandre Diggs, Eddie Jackson as possible starters. That’s if you want a true full time starter. Outside of those 3 I don’t see any true starters better than what we have.
But I do think we are actually ok with Edwards, Bishop, Rapp. Lewis would be the fourth. I am not a Lewis guy, but they clearly are and he offers position flexibility. Bishop is going to start somewhere imo.
You could add some functional young depth like a Terrell Burgess who is coming out of the Washington system, so would be familiar with the concepts here. He is also excellent on special teams. Another guy who makes sense on some level for depth is Will Harris. He has position flexibilty as a safety, outside corner or nickel where he has played predominately the last couple of years.
So I think there could be room to add a starter if the price is right and there are some opportunities to add depth out there.

This is why I don’t bet. Didin’t have Quintez Chephus on my bingo card

So in my opinion, your starting center does not have to be versatile. He can be a center only guy. However, your backup center cannot be a center only guy, he should really have position flexibility.
Let’s say McGovern starts at center and Edwards at LG and lets say Edwards gets hurt…this regime is not going to want to move their starting center over to guard and stick Van Pran in there in the middle of a game. That just becomes a messy move. If it becomes a long term injury, you can make that switch during the week.
Van Pran either needs to win the center job, or needs to prove he can do enough at guard to get us out of a game. I do not think he has a chance to start at LG.
Cross training him makes a ton of sense in that regard, but this is a polished center who I do think has a chance to start right away at center.

To me, they believe Coleman is their X, Samuel is the Z or the other receiver and Shakir is the slot. Beane has talked in the past about the “4” that they look for and that was Harty last year. A guy who can play inside and outside, kind of knows all the positions and if he comes with return ability, even better. That is still missing from the roster, though KJ Hamler could fill that role.
Mecole Hardman makes the most sense with the speed and return ability. I am guessing he is a bit too expensive. This would also be pretty high profile so I feel like someone would have reported it. But I like that fit.
Jamal Agnew is probably in the same category, same type of player with a ton of return ability as well. He’s got all
pro return ability. Kind of a poor man’s Hardman. Similar size and speed, Agnew is a bit older. If I were a betting man, I would say Agnew was here today. With the new rules for kickoff this would be a dynamite add.
I am a Jalen Guyton guy. Good size and speed combination. He tore the ACL a couple of years ago so should be fully healthy at this point.
Small guy who is stupid fast and fills that “4” role that Harty was in and would be cheap is Scotty Miller. 4.28 with some big play ability when he was with Tampa.
MVS makes some level of sense. He, like Chark are big and fast so they fit. but both are probably out of the price range.

Really great feet. Nice punch and gather. Didn’t know much about him, but he’s definitely interesting and this is the type of guy Kromer can mold.

I thought with Milano and Bernard as the starters and Dorian Williams and the vet LB they signed from Philly and Spector the Bills were good at LB. But I think they likely saw how these smaller quicker guys may be more injury prone so having depth is critical.
I think they will either carry 6 or cut Spector and try to “sneak” Spector on the PS.
After how things went down last year I hope they carry 6. But this dude is much cheaper than a guy like Matekevich and has way more upside.- 4

FWIW I don’t think Browning has a chance to unseat Martin, but he holds, kicks FGs, punts, and handles kickoffs, so he’s interesting. He was Ariza’s holder before taking over the job.

Yep and Keaton Bills is probably the best signing so far. A freaking mauler in Run game and improved Pass Pro. Very Wyatt Teller like.
He’s better than a lot of the guys drafted in those last couple of rounds.- 4

Could we take a punter here?
Ryan Rekhow is interesting and probably draftable. Matthew Hayball as well. He’s a lefty. -

Mcgovern played center in college.. and has NFL starting experience on the line
It's going to be next to impossible.. for him to beat him out this year.. unless they want McGovern back at guard
He's a great option to groom
McGovern is going to start. Van Pran would have to beat out Edwards/Collins imo and McGovern goes back to guard. I love Edwards, but I do think Van Pran has a chance to push to start.- 2

Taylor was really the only draft able punter this year. Doesn't mean another won't go because the draft is weak.
I do like Rekhow, but probably can be an UDFA- 1

What a weird draft.
Not bad.. just weird.
Everything we’re doing makes complete sense. We’ve added 3 potential starters at WR, S and C, along with a rotational DT and RB.
Just very business like. Nothing aggressive. No real gambles. Not much boom or bust.. just good players at positions of need, yet nothing that really moves the needle when it comes to Josh trying to slay Mahomes, while fighting off other teams like HOU, NYJ and BAL.
Overall it feels like a baseball draft. Not really going BPA, teams are just plugging needs. It’s definitely been a bit weird. -
I like Rattler. Odds are he’s gonna have a better career than 2 of those guys picked before him. JMO

Makes sense I guess. Wish Bishop could keep 8 personally.
Just gotta draft Ryan Rekhow and dump Martin and he gets 8! -

I agree. NFLN spoiled a bunch of picks this year by going to Ian Rapoport and letting him "speculate" what the next pick might be, which was their way of spoiling without technically spoiling.
Completely spoiled the big Michael Penix surprise moment, and a bunch of others. It got to the point where whenever they said "let's bring in Ian Rapoport", I muted the TV and looked away til he was gone.
I hate that they did this. I think I'll be switching back to ESPN going forward. NFLN's coverage stunk this year. I've actually been enjoying ESPN's day three coverage. Better than expected.
Yeah I said this the other day, and it’s an unpopular but ESPN actually covers all the picks in day 3.- 1

I will say this, they do not have an X receiver. Brown and Worthy play in an out and are small so can’t win consistently against press. Maybe Worthy can, but that was the concern pre-draft. For all the hype about Rice, he mostly played a big slot. Kelce obviously a generational TE. Like us, Reid, and most teams move guys around and hopefully create opportunities for receivers. The argument about winning one on ones as a boundary X…there aren’t that many guys in the NFL who can.
