*** 2024 Prospect Tracker: Chiefs Interest / Visits / Work Outs ***
2023 Recap
Spoiler!
The Chiefs won their 3rd ring in 5 years and cemented their Dynasty. Mahomes placed himself firmly on the Mt. Rushmore of all-time great QBs, with an insane postseason run and maybe the most memorable Super Bowl MVP performance of all time.
He led the boys down the field to come-from-behind and tie in regulation with less than 2 minutes. He then produced the NFL's first come-from-behind overtime victory, with a 7-minute drive using his arm and legs, finishing with a walk-off TD pass to Mecole Hardman. Hell, the world's biggest pop-star decided to jump on the bandwagon, bringing millions of fans on board with her. What a magical year, right?
If you would have asked anyone on Christmas day, the Chiefs were toast. The entire season was up and down, riddled with mental errors - shockingly on the offensive side of the ball. Drops, penalties, and turnovers would surely doom the season. However, the young Defense was elite, and ultimately bought the Offense just enough time to figure its shit out in the playoffs.
There are some big decisions looming this offseason: Does Veach continue to be prudent and focus on savvy, budget-friendly moves and let talent walk? Or, does he push the chips all-in with key FA's (Jones, Sneed) an attempt to become the first team to 3-peat?
Everyone agrees that the biggest needs next year are WR, OT and probably D-Line should Jones leave. Let's see if Veach and co. feel the same.
Thread Overview
This is the 13th year in a row that we will be tracking the college players the Chiefs have publicly or privately expressed interest in leading up to the NFL Draft.
Last year, we had a pretty solid showing with 4 hits: Felix Anudike-Uzomah, Rashee Rice, Wanye Morris & BJ Thompson. Let's run it back!
For those who are new: the way this operates is that we collectively monitor various social media sources, blogs, articles and reports for news of the Chiefs' interest in a certain player. When posted in this thread, I will update the OP to include the player. *Please provide the link to the article, the players name, position and team.
I am going to try to link to player profiles when they exist, courtesy of The Draft Network, NFL.com, or their team's website.
Let's meet some of our future Chiefs:
