Was seen talking to the Chiefs after the combines. NFL.com's mock draft has the Chiefs taking him in the third round. "Corey Ballentine, Washburn Best team fits: Detroit Lions, Indianapolis Colts, Kansas City Chiefs. Analysis: Ballentine helped himself in Mobile a few weeks ago and confirmed his athleticism in front of scouts Monday in Indianapolis. He was one of the best performers in on-field drills, displaying a nice transition and catching nearly everything thrown his way -- something lots of other participants could not say. His jumps (39.5-inch vertical, 11-3 broad) were excellent, and his 40 speed (4.47 seconds), strength (15 reps on the bench press) and performance in the agility drills (6.82 three-cone, 4.14 short shuttle) were good enough to keep him in the conversation as a second- or third-round pick." position?

Absolutely 100% no. If they went all in for a trade up, it would be for JoshAllen would be my guess. Any normal fan: "Historically good offense. Bottom 3 defense.

Any normal fan: "Historically good offense. Bottom 3 defense. What do you think we should address?".... Balto : "Offense!" Its not likely happening. I saw about 4 comments from Veach yesterday that all led to the secondary being the focus early in the draft. “We’re certainly going to be aggressive in that area,” Veach said Thursday. He later added: “It’s a passing league, and everyone is trying to create mismatches in the secondary. You can’t have enough cover guys.” Inside Lucas Oil Stadium on Monday, Veach, Spagnuolo and head coach Andy Reid watched a number of prospects — notably Trayvon Mullen (Clemson), Rock Ya-Sin (Temple), Joejuan Williams (Vanderbilt), Byron Murphy (Washington) and Lonnie Johnson (Kentucky) — who could fit well into their new defensive scheme. Ya-Sin, Williams and Murphy all had interviews with the Chiefs, whether at the combine or the Senior Bowl a few weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id rather trade down and get another couple second rounders personally. 4 second rounders sound great to me. Thats the sweet spot for CB anyway in this draft.

If we can add another I'm certainly on board. I just think we have to be aggressive enough to add two secondary players out of those picks.

Veachs ability to draft is going to make or break this plan. If it does work, we could be on the cusp os being THE team in the AFC for years to come.

That's a luxury they can't afford with all the other needs. I understand the BPA in the first round theory, but with a team that's close to being very good the Chiefs have to address their glaring problems.

dhitter 1,426 Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 It's gotta be defense at #29 right? Assuming the Chiefs don't trade out of it. I would think that if an offensive player were equal or even slightly higher graded to a defensive player, they would still go with a defensive player because of the need there. In other words the offensive player would have to be head and shoulders the best player on their board...a steal at #29. It could happen I suppose but what is the more likely scenario?
