Matt Miller’s 7 round mock draft
32. Kansas City Chiefs: CB Jaylon Johnson, Utah If watching Deebo Samuel carve up this defense wasn't enough evidence, keep in mind the Chiefs have only two corners under contract for 2020. This is a major need and thankfully at a deep group of players in this draft. Johnson has excellent size and would be ideal in the Kansas City defense. He can press or play off. He's big enough to handle physical receivers. With only Charvarius Ward set to return as a starter, this is the bigger need than complementary pieces on offense. 64. CHIEFS: WR Gabriel Davis, UCF 96. CHIEFS: RB Ke'Shawn Vaughn, Vanderbilt 135. CHIEFS: IOL Trystan Colon-Castillo, Missouri 178. CHIEFS: TE Josiah Deguara, Cincinnati |

If this team goes for a bigger receiver, and not that I don't like Davis, I think I'd prefer Isaiah Hodgins. Reminds a bunch of Kenny Golladay coming out and probably will be there around the same time (3-96).

Mims, for a big guy with a huge catch radius who likes to run the 9 route, gains surprisingly good separation on shorter routes, too. |

I've come around on the idea of using at least one of the first two picks on a skill player on offense.
They're likely losing Watkins, and he has been huge for KC when teams scheme to take away Hill and Kelce. You need that third threat who can make defenses pay for singling them up. Running back is probably the biggest initial bang-for-the-buck. If they can get a true 3-down guy like Swift or Dobbins at 32, it makes sense to me. Dobbins is a more explosive HR threat, Swift has better vision. If they go that way at 32, probably leaves them needing to take a CB at 63, unless there's an OL/DL there they just love. |

I think he’s definitely more than just a kick returner and will start in 3 WR sets. But we do need more of a possession style WR to complement he and Hill. RB may be the spot. I think they could upgrade there if it’s a BPA situation. I just hope we never pay big at that position as long as Mahomes is around, it just wouldn’t make sense. |

I'd be surprised of the draft went so offense heavy like that.

Make sure he has a solid line, a good tight end, and the rest will fall into place. The Patriots gave us the play book for how to manage a roster around an elite QB. |

you know who might be an interesting WR? Lynn Bowden from Kentucky.
Was the #1 receiver; lighting it up. Then last year, the top two QB's went down and Bowden took over the QB spot and played Lamar Jackson-style. I think Andy would have a lot of fun with a cat like that. Can you imagine? WR screen that's actually a lateral and then a 50 yard bomb to Tyreek? |

Unless there is a player who falls that we absolutely have to have I'm in favor of going the Patriots route of constantly trading down for more picks. If this draft is like many others where pundits claim there are only 20 or so true first round talents then the difference between a player taken at 32 and between 40-50 could be negligible. With our limited cap room we can use every pick possible to add depth/competition.

We need a Milk Cow type running back. This team would be very scary with a decent running game.

Preferably, I’d like to get a guy with speed and a good route runner. We need somebody that can make an immediate impact without a limited route tree IMO. If we get a solid veteran WR, I’d feel a lot better about taking a guy like him though. |

Yea I don’t really think we can go wrong. If the value isn’t there at CB, LB, DE, or IOL then don’t hesitate to take Swift or Dobbins.
