And Marshall and a long snapper. Humphrey and Smith appear to be good starters for KC.

Hurney and Fitterer got us Little, Brown, Marshall and an IR’s long snapper whose name I don’t know.

New Orleans, Tampa and KC got McCoy (and didn’t give up their 3rd), Wirfs, Humphrey and Smith

We could have Wirfs, McCoy, Humphrey, Smith and Moton as our OL. Oh, and we could have had Maxx Crosby for the 3rd we threw away as we had him in for a private visit and we took Miller when Crosby was gone (after both of our 3rd rounders). McCoy was also a private visit.

SMH, our OL was a piece of cake to fix if we just actually tried. I don’t think Hurney or Fitterer really did try to fix it. Instead we picked up Paradis, Erving, Elflein and Jordan. Lolz, it hurts so much thinking about what we was staring us in the face and we pushed it aside and said no thanks we can make Little, Erving and Elflein work. fug.

You could add Lucas Niang to KC's haul too, they had 3 rookies starting on the line.  He graded out at 64.9 and while he hasn't been as impressive as Humphrey and Smith, he'd probably be our 2nd best lineman.

Kansas City started three rookies last night - C, RG, and RT. 2nd, 3rd, and 6th rounders, and this was on top of trading for Brown and signing Thuney. If only...

I would point out that those rookies play for Kansas City, a team with a plethora of NFL level coaching experience drawing up NFL plays and training players from college to be good NFL players.

We have Matt Rhule and the Baylor "Bad News" Bears coaching staff.

Agree. We can talk players for hours, but if you don’t have the coaching it doesn’t  matter. Look at Chargers last night. Missing their starting stud LT, they started som random guy at LT and he did ok. We see this all the time across the league, random backups starting and doing fine. Yes our players are terrible, but I don’t know if that matters with our coaches. I would throw as much money as needed at a great O-Line coach next year. I see that being as crucial as a new HC and OC.

Christensen and Moton are looking like the only competent players that have started.

Cameron Erving kept it together early on but last week was vintage Erving. I have bitched about Elflein & Paradis since their split arrivals.

At this point, throw Deonte Brown into the deep end and see if he sinks or swims.

    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others. 
    • I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
