Id add Karlaftis to that list. Kid is about to come into his own.

It's going to be a hell of long offseason

You trade with the Chiefs you get sent to USA's Siberia or rotten crotch Tennessee

OP was right about one thing. It's an unpopular thought.

I don’t want to spend a 1st or 2nd round pick on a LT but if the right guy is there I’d do it. I’m not trading up to do it.

In this draft you could go LT in RD 1 and still get a stud DT and stud RB and still have your late third rounder to do whatever with. Shots not that bad.

It’s a terrible LT draft and anyone the Chiefs draft would be a raw project.

Like Kingsley.

Like Wanya.

The definition of insanity.

I'd go full Ditka for Joe Alt, though

Mahomes can massage the rough edges of losing an elite playmaker like Tyreek.

He's not on defense, though. He can't do the same for McDuffie.
[Reply]

Wouldn't be too eager to trade McDuffie but AS A THOUGHT EXPERIMENT what would we get in return?

We got far less for Sneed than I would have guessed (I understand that Sneed is not McDuffie but he was pretty great for us). So I'm not sure we would get an offer that really moved the needle for me.

Also, IIRC the Chiefs traded up to get McDuffie so even if we were to receive a 1st round pick in trade we still wouldn't make back the original investment.

So I'll pick up the phone and listen to offers for everyone not named Mahomes but it seems very unlikely I would let go of our best corner unless someone offers the moon.

As an aside, are the Texans still giving away players and picks for no reason?

I've seen Brett Veach overhaul the defense after the 2018 collapse.

I've seen Brett Veach revamp the entire offensive line successfully after getting destroyed in a superbowl.

Brett Veach needs to fix ONE position. Left Tackle.

Do we really think he's not going to do that?

Dude, I agree with you. I think the difference is that I’d still be willing to fire at an OT in the draft under certain situations. Like not being able to address the position in free agency. And by that I don’t mean cheap flyer on a dude like DJ who at best is probably just competition at the position.

But realize we don’t have a lot to piss in besides Kingsley and he’s a giant question mark as it appears the team likes him at guard. So if you have absolutely nothing, you re going to fire at an another tackle in this draft whether you like it or not. Frankly it would criminal to avoid the position all together.

Thanks for that blast from the past. What a blockbuster trade.

And crazy to think you would once even consider trading an elite CB for an elite RB.
[Reply]

It's the 2nd or 3rd most difficult position to fill. QB, LT, premier pass rusher. They don't usually hit free agency and they go the top of the first.

Pretty damned rare to find any of them anywhere else.

I wouldn't trade McDuffie this year I'd explore it with a year left but this idea of going all out to move up for a LT is reckless a rookie LT ain't gonna fix what happened in the super bowl
