a lot of these top 12, top 15 guys, and it is, again, an edge rusher, it's receiver.

The Program
H2 Matt Derrick

I'm surprised that we just haven't heard maybe noise about any of the corners, although, again, Mansour Delane from LSU is really the only corner that you hear about that gets a lot of buzz.

The Program
H2 Matt Derrick

I will say, I mean, talking to people about Jordan Tyson, the one thing that I think that would excite the Chiefs fans the most is that his reputation is that he catches everything.

The Program
H2 Matt Derrick

And that's obviously something that the Chiefs have had some troubles with.

The Program
H2 Matt Derrick

If they could get a big 6'2", 200-pound-plus receiver who will catch anything he gets his hands on, that's something that they have badly needed for a while.

The Program
H2 Matt Derrick

Well, you know, with Tyson, my immediate comparison is Jeremy Macklin because Macklin had the same type of knee injury where he basically blew out everything in that knee and came back and obviously was great at Mizzou and didn't really have much of it.

The Program
H2 Matt Derrick

I don't remember having much of injury issues in the NFL or anything.

The Program
H2 Matt Derrick

H2 Matt Derrick

And, again, there's a red flag or a beige flag at least on every single one of these first-round picks this year.

The Program
H2 Matt Derrick

It is not a normal draft where you feel like that there's maybe 15 guys that you feel pretty good about that if you draft them, as long as you coach them right, they're going to be stars.

The Program
H2 Matt Derrick

I mean, I think there's going to be some bust in these top 15 picks just because it's not the same kind of draft.

The Program
H2 Matt Derrick

And you can see the impact that the NIL is having.

The Program
H2 Matt Derrick

We've got fewer early entries into this year's draft than ever before.

The Program
H2 Matt Derrick

So, I mean, the composite of this draft, conversely, I mean, I think there's going to be some depth later on.

The Program
H2 Matt Derrick

I mean, there does look like there's actually maybe, you know, some players even late in the first round where it starts to pick up and you're like, okay, well, this guy isn't a slam dunk, you know, guaranteed prospect.

The Program
H2 Matt Derrick

But he's got some really good traits or he's had really good production, something that you can hang your hat on and think, okay, yeah, this guy could be something for us.

The Program
H2 Matt Derrick

If you can't draft receivers with recurring soft tissue injuries or defensive players with a long history of, you know,
