The is the very, very first time ever, ever, that I have mocked a LB to the Chiefs in the 1st round. I have never done that before.
And I may never do it again. But it's premised on several things. 1st: I actually think the Chiefs have a Super Bowl offense, if Kingsley figures it out. It's not the Chiefs' fault they've been wracked by injury and suspension. Even losing Kelce, I think this team can put up major points by December, with Rice back from injury and off suspension with Dionte Johnson with Gray and Fortson eating receptions. The bigger issue is that we're just bleeding players in the back seven over the next two seasons. At linebacker in particular, we've let Gay and Bolton walk in consecutive offseasons, which means the Chiefs need some primo talent at the LB position. It's possible going forward, I will need to be more aggressive in mocking receiving talent? But in this scenario, they've got the Bengals formula: good WRs in Dionte/Rice/Worthy by December, with decent TEs playing opportunistically. |

Rice coming back 100% from his injury, both physically and mentally, is not guaranteed. I'd be shocked if we don't snag another wide receiver in the draft. Maybe with our 3rd, I think
