From the land of the free and the home of the chiefs, this is the

locked on chiefs podcast. Welcome back chiefs kingdom. We have a great show for you today.

We are going to get into the other hot topic of position the chiefs can probably feel can probably get great value for and maybe they even want to trade up.

We're going to talk corners coming up here in a little bit. I'm Ryan Tracy the founder of Rogue Analytics and your hosted

RGR football where we go over athleticism which is particularly important for the

corners as well as all kinds of film review and everything else so check that

out the athletic matrix is coming I am working my tail off on it and we'll have that for you too and we'll have a discount code for you for all of you locked on chiefs fans

Chris is going to join me in just a minute to have that discussion. But before we get there, a little update on

Austin Blythe because I think it is particularly of note the deal that they got done in probably

not offering as much to Austin Ryder. I think they've traded in Austin for an

Austin as we spoke about yesterday. I think part of it is this information that came

out on the contract and it is very, very bare bones.

Austin Blythe will play one year at 990K.

It is guaranteed, so good for him.

He got a little bit of security there.

And there are 760,000 in playtime and team performance incentives, meaning if the team achieved success, he gets some, if he achieves a certain level, most likely tied to either snaps or games played that will turn into a

payout for him as well. So grand total here is 1.75 and that comes in in a really rock bottom price for a veteran that you know can at least secure the position if you have to for the time being.

Is it an upgrade, possibly in some ways. We've discussed that a little bit. We'll have a deeper in-depth conversation, but you can find out more about it over at our GR as well. I think that this is really intrinsically the thing that they had to do again doesn't preclude them from going up to draft someone they can certainly do that and I think that actually they will I do like a couple of one top 100 guy that I think will probably be a third rounder.

There are a couple of others farther down the list as well that I think the chiefs might enjoy trying to bring you and see if they can develop and patch for a longer term

replacement at the position without having to sell the farm without having to trade up

and pursue the top centers that they seriously have fish to fry with the left tackle position.

So I think that having both of those goals is something that will probably lend towards a deeper look into the center position in this draft class and
