4 Chiefs draft predictions based on Brett Veach’s history

4 Chiefs draft predictions based on Brett Veach’s history

What should we expect from Kansas City this weekend?

As we near the start of the NFL Draft, the Kansas City Chiefs have kept their draft intentions close to the vest.

National analysts seem to alternate between mocking wide receivers or second-tier offensive tackles for Kansas City. Of course, that could be exactly what general manager Brett Veach would want if he was eying a cornerback to replace L’Jarius Sneed’s departure last month or a defensive tackle under rookie control to pair with superstar Chris Jones.

Regardless of the directions the Chiefs go across the draft’s three days, here are...

2024 mock draft data suggests how the Chiefs will use the 32nd pick

2024 mock draft data suggests how the Chiefs will use the 32nd pick

Using data from well over 100 mock drafts from this offseason, we try to predict what Kansas City will do.

During 2024’s offseason, we’ve revealed players projected to the Kansas City Chiefs in 112 mock drafts from various sources around the Internet — most of them from national writers. The vast majority were covered in our daily Arrowheadlines feature. In those instances, we simply showed which college player went to Kansas City in that mock.

But 14 of them were covered in individual Arrowhead Pride articles, in which we provided some local analysis of the writers’ pick — and also...

3 unorthodox fits for Chiefs among Day 1 draft prospects

3 unorthodox fits for Chiefs among Day 1 draft prospects

The Chiefs could go a lot of different directions in the first round, but these results would be unique.

There is a strong expectation that the Kansas City Chiefs will take a certain type of player with their first pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. The possible positions have been narrowed down to wide receiver and left tackle. History tells us the receiver would have speed in their skill set, and the tackle would have a massive frame and wingspan.

With that in mind, there are three intriguing prospects in the Chiefs’ draft range that would fill the positional need...

Draft Darlings: FSU DT Braden Fiske wins with leverage and strength

The former Florida State defensive lineman would fit right in along Kansas City’s defensive line.

In the NFL Draft, the Kansas City Chiefs could be looking to bolster their defensive line — and provide some long-term roster stability.

Florida State’s defensive tackle Braden Fiske is a player who could do that. Here’s what you need to know about him:

Background

As a three-star offensive guard from Michigan City High School in Indiana — just west of South Bend on the shores of Lake Michigan — Fiske received only two collegiate offers: one from Illinois State and one from Western...

SB Nation NFL Mock Draft: Chiefs select Ladd McConkey with 32nd pick

SB Nation NFL Mock Draft: Chiefs select Ladd McConkey with 32nd pick

Looking for a trade-up opportunity, Kansas City ended up staying put to select the dynamic wide receiver.

For the second consecutive year, the Kansas City Chiefs proudly sit at pick 32 in the SB Nation writer’s mock draft. There are plenty of perks to winning two consecutive Super Bowls, but access to the following draft’s top prospects is not one of them.

That would take a big trade, but Arrowhead Pride’s attempts to move up the board were denied. The top offensive tackles did go early, but the second tier of wide receivers didn’t start until Pick 28, when the...

KC Chiefs legend Tamba Hali is training DE Felix Anudike-Uzomah in the art of pass rush | A to Z Sports

Last offseason, Chiefs legend Tamba Hali took former first-round draft pick George Karlaftis under his wing, training him in various martial arts.

Another former first-round draft pick for the Chiefs is now under Hali’s tutelage, and it’s music...
