Not surprisingly, they are looking at big WR's. Mahomes is gonna be gunslingin, so need some guys that can snatch it.

 

If they move on from Colquitt, I'd probably use a 4 on Michael Dickson. Nails pinning teams deep; just ask Mizzou.

 

If werthers original is going to continue running mostly subs, I'd probably fill the NT role with Lowell later on.

 

J'Mon Moore would be a fine end of draft choice, but certain fans would certainlt be triggered lol

great info there ... Thanks.  I have realized that Andy has figured out the old  saying that  Offense wins games but Defense wins championships  seems to have not sank in.

 

 Looks like a DV/Grob scenario is in our future

Not really true on the saying. On the other board I went over from the #1 offense or defense against each other or whoever had the better offense went against each other if the teams matched up that way. The findings were pretty close for offense and defense winning percentages.

 

From 2012 but I am sure it is still close

? Most of the formal interviews were linebackers and pass rushers.

Yes it is interesting that thus far the only none defensive guy to have had a formal is Mark Andrews. Although word is they told Davon Grayson "he has what they are looking for", and Jamil Demby said he left the meeting "feeling like both him and the Chiefs were excited about a possible union". They've also had several meetings with Smythe and especially Noteboom. Plus our WR coach spending an hour with Lasley cannot be discounted.  

 

Hopefully some info will leak today about the CB's and safeties they spoke to.

Just added the two Texas WR's to the list. Wasn't mentioned If it was formal or not but I always had a feeling we'd be looking at Coutee as the kid is a demon from the slot position and his speed, catching skills and his ability to get separation could be a lethal weapon In our offense imo. Coutee and Hill In the same team just wouldn't be fair :D

Don't know about the big wr needs.   I am confused at what the chiefs system and needs are.

 

Small fast route runners is what I thought.   We will find out.

only smallish WR we had was wilson...all the rest are 6 foot and taller...

 

Not surprised at the all TE's & WR's  or the LB's and Linemen

 

wonder why there were not a lot of Corners...maybe we have plans in FA

Very surprised that no names of CB's have been leaked yet. Just now I just added two safeties to the list In Armani Watts and Deshon Elliot, but still, no word of a CB at all. Watts had a formal and that kid can ball so that's an exciting name there. The only conclusion could be that the Chiefs have met with a few CB's privately? Who knows, I hope we hear something soon though.

Alright guys panic over, the names of Cornerbacks have finally come in. Jaire Alexander, Donte Jackson and Chris Campbell have all confirmed that they have spoken to the Chiefs. Donte Jackson appears to have spent a lot of time with them, while Jaire had a formal. Jaire certainly seems to be a good fit to replace Peters tbh but we'll see. Hope to see more names added.

 

EDIT: Tarvarus McFadden has also had a formal meeting with the Chiefs.

 

Chiefs really looking at some decent CB's right now.
