Round 1 potential targets
WR:
Rashod Bateman, Minnesota Kadarius Toney, Florida Terrace Marshall, LSU TE: Pat Freiermuth, Penn St. OL: Alijah Vera-Tucker, T/G, USC Liam Eichenberg, T, Notre Dame Jalen Mayfield, T, Michigan Samuel Cosmi, T, Texas DE: Azeez Ojulari, Georgia Jaelan Phillips, Miami Jayson Oweh, Penn St. |
I think we (this board) value picking another linebacker higher up much more than the Chiefs do/will.
If I remember correctly, Hitchens contract pretty much has no out for the next 2 years until it ends, hopefully Gay is on the field for 95% of snaps next year so unless the Chiefs are going to play a ton of base there won't be many snaps for another LB? I personally think they might target a LB in the 3rd/4th/5th instead. |

Collins or Bolton just might be BPA. The Chiefs, under Reid, have a history of drafting for future departures the following year. Remember, even CEH wasn’t supposed to be the starter this year. Replacing Hitchens is a lot on the mental side, so it’s possible that they could want to get ahead of it and draft their guy a year early. That way when Hitchens is gone, you have 2 good young LB’s. You could also play Gay and the rookie a lot more in subs so we don’t have to see Niemann on the field anymore and avoid Hitchens in coverage as much as possible. Again, I agree that it’s unlikely, but it’s absolutely possible. |
If Bolton is there, I'd take him. He's a stud.
I really like Humphrey and Davis the more I've read about them. |
Najee Harris too
|
Creed Humphrey looks like an Andy Reid fantasy. He’s really big and very fast for his size. Kinda reminds me of Mitch Morse without the injury concern.
Not sure we’d take him so early but I wouldn’t be mad at it |

Thus,OL, and RB are needs higher on the list because of the Chiefs generational QB who can utilize these assets in comparison to a "good" QB where it would be wasted. We need the Half-Billion Dollar Man to be secure and confident |
I would include Chris Olave and Terrance Marshall, Jr. in the WR group.
Marshall is really interesting... he's a 6'3" receiver, but LSU has used him outside AND in the slot, and he separates really well for a guy that size. Olave is a separation machine (very Terry McLaurin) but is pretty skinny without much room for adding muscle mass. Quote:

I’d be good with either of those 2 though. Even better if we could get them after trading down a few spots. |
Quote:
Yeah. All comes down to grade. If you have Marshall and Olave as top 30 players and an IOL as a top 50 player, hard to see them sticking at 32 and still taking the IOL. |

Toney is climbing up my board every time I watch more of him. He is really intriguing with his RAC ability. He’s like the Kamara of WR’s the way he glides around the field and just bounces off tackles so uniquely. |
Quote:
Toney probably fits the system the best. He’s 5/11-6 and super twitched up. He’s also thick and just explosive. I think he’ll be able to handle press man coverage and would be really dangerous doing a lot of the stuff Watkins does. He’s a little injury prone, though, it seems. |
Been on the Chris Olave wagon for awhile now. He needs to be discussed more.

LDT and Niang possibly returning, I’m sure Chiefs will have more clarification closer to draft time. The pandemic “could” get worse, NFL might have players opting out earlier this offseason if given the opportunity. This draft is going to be very unpredictable. |
