SEMO 6,811 Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 1 - Carolina - Bryce Young QB Alabama Size concerns, but there is no question of the talent on the field. 2 - Houston - Will Anderson EDGE Alabama They would like to trade out. They should stay put and take a QB, but there are so many holes they take the BPA in the draft and build DeMeco's D. 3 - Indianapolis from Arizona - CJ Stroud QB Ohio St Indy moves up a spot for a 3 and a 5 to assure that they get the QB they want. 4 - Arizona from Indianapolis - Christian Gonzalez CB Oregon Arizona takes the best height, weight, speed corner in the draft to fix their abysmal secondary. 5 - Seattle - Jalen Carter DT Georgia Seattle stays at 5 and get who many had as the BPA in this draft. The off field stuff makes it risky, but if he can keep his nose clean, it could be the draft's best pick. 6 - Detroit - Anthony Richardson QB Florida Goff has two years left on his contract. It gives Richardson time to adjust to the pro game. 7 - Las Vegas - Devon Witherspoon CB Illinois They could go QB here, but will stick with Jimmy G and add a corner to try to slow MVPat down. 8 - Atlanta - Tyree Wilson EDGE Texas Tech The blue chip corners are gone. Wilson falls some and the birds are happy to get him. 9 - Chicago - Paris Johnson OT Ohio St They have to give Fields more time. 10 - Philadelphia - Bijan Robinson RB Texas This pick makes more sense now that they have made Hurts the league's highest paid QB. Add skill players through the draft, since they can't pay big in FA for them. 11 - Tennessee - Will Levis QB Kentucky The Titans are about ready to blow things up. Levis is a good piece to start with. 12 - Houston - Jaxon Smith-Njigba WR Ohio St A receiver finally goes off of the board. Houston gets the most polished pass catcher in the draft. 13 - Green Bay from New York Jets - Dalton Kincaid TE Utah A safety blanket for Love. 14 - New England - Nolan Smith EDGE Georgia A prototypical Belichick player. Smith is a tweener that is dangerous from the first and second level. 15 - New York Jets from Green Bay - Broderick Jones OT Georgia 16 - Washington - Lukas Van Ness EDGE Iowa They would like a corner, but will add to a potent Dline in an attempt to slow down Philly's dominant offense. 17 - Pittsburgh - Joey Porter, Jr CB Penn St They take a legacy player to try and stop Burrow, Jackson, and the perv in Cleveland. 18 - Detroit - Michael Mayer TE Notre Dame They need to replace Hockenson. Mayer gives more firepower to a suddenly competitive Lions team. 19 - Tampa Bay - Myles Murphy EDGE Clemson 20 - Jacksonville from Seattle - Peter Skoronski OT/OG Northwestern They trade up for Taylor's replacement. He could move to LT after next season, as Robinson is probably gone. 21 - Miami - forfeited 22 - Los Angeles Chargers - Quentin Johnston WR TCU Williams and Allen are both aging and have expiring contracts within the next couple of years. 23 - Baltimore - Jordan Addison WR USC They add another receiver that Jackson won't be able to get the ball to. 24 - Minnesota - Bryan Bresee DT Clemson This could be a receiver. They have jack shit outside of Jefferson. But, they have to add talent to the Dline. 25 - Seattle from Jacksonville - Brian Branch S Alabama Seattle goes BPA on their board to beef up the secondary. 26 - Kansas City from New York Giants - Zay Flowers WR Boston College So, yeah. KC moves up for a receiver. They send 32, 123, and 252 to NYG and add another Flowers to the Kingdom. Zay is another quick twitch wideout that has a good release and easily creates separation. Can play outside or in the slot. 27 - Dallas - Calijah Kancey DT Pittsburgh They shoot for the Aaron Donald comparison. Can he live up to it, lol. 28 - Buffalo - Derick Hall EDGE Auburn They give all of the money to Von and he can't finish the season. They add a speedy rusher to the already young rotation. 29 - Cincinnati - Cam Smith CB South Carolina Apple is gone and they need some competition behind Hilton. 30 - New Orleans - Keion White EDGE Georgia Tech White is a physical freak that is an upgrade to the Saints line. 31 - Philadelphia - Kelee Ringo CB Georgia After the luxury pick of Bijan, they add to the secondary that Mahomes beat like they stole something. 32 - New York Giants from Kansas City - John Michael Schmitz C Minnesota They upgrade the center postition.

mex 65,577 Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 We should start a coalition pool on Pick #1. As much as I like Flowers... I'd be really surprised if they gave up draft capital to move up for another. With the addition of James, we now have a pretty solid WR room and a serviceable bench... arguably better than last year.

Palangi 788 Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 I don’t like moving up for Flowers when we can draft Rakim Jarrett in round 4. Very similar players. if we move up it needs to be for OT or DE. Broderick jones or if Murphy falls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broderick jones or if Murphy falls The difference with Jarrett is he does not provide the same level of play or separation down the field. The fact that Zay can take the top off also means NFL DBs can't sit on his routes. I also don't think he's on the same level of separation in the short amd intermediate routes as Flowers. Kind of similar players on the surface though. Of course I'd rather have Iosivas or Trey Palmer around where Jarrett will go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMO 6,811 Posted April 24, 2023 Author Share Posted April 24, 2023 I disagree on the urgency for a tackle. I don’t think Veach/Reid are as concerned about RT as fans are. FFS, they were fine with Wylie there for the last two years. Niang, Kinnard, Prince, and a mid round pick will compete for the position. Veach gave himself a lot of freedom with some great FA signings so far. There is no glaring need, plus extra picks to use to move around. He can go get a guy like Flowers, or even Addison (who I may like better) and add another freakish receiver to the fold. Flowers ain’t Tyreek. No one is. But, he is more “Tyreekish” than anyone else on the roster. Skyy is a volume, possession type, and Toney has the short are quickness but not deep speed. Flowers has all of it. Release package, separation, short area quickness, and deep speed. He is built thick also, so will be durable. I love the kid and hope they go up for him.

Plus as we've said, there are good tackles throughout this draft. Hell you may be able to get Carter Warren on day 3 due to the meniscus tear and he's a starter, not a developmental tackle. He would have been late rd 1 or rd 2 if not for being injured. I still think he could go on day 2 though depending on the medicals. SEMO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhitter 1,424 Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Truth is none of us "knows" what direction the Chiefs are gonna go. Fans often project their own personal preferences and biases into their predictions. Makes for interesting debate. I can't imagine the Chiefs trading draft capital and moving up to get a WR. But that's me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhitter 1,424 Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 I feel confident the Chiefs are going to move up in round one. Unfortunately, to get a guy like Broderick Jones, they probably will need to move up fairly high.....looking at that #18 spot with the Lions who are reportedly interested in trading out of that spot. It all depends on wether or not they have zeroed in on a guy or just comfortable letting their board play out oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mex 65,577 Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 It all depends on who they want and how it starts shaking out. As soon as someone in front of them makes an unexpected move, everything will shuffle. Hopefully that unexpected move leaves an extra player at a position of need which increases the chances we'll get who we want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More likely whatever we can get for the extra 4th That extra fourth should be worth about four spaces in the first round and I doubt BUFF or CINN are dealing with KC. It's also possible that they could use that fourth to move up in the second if they stay put in the first. Might be a way to get a better DE or Tillman.
