Round 2, Pick 16

With the 48th overall pick, I had the Chiefs selecting a wide receiver. Nelson Agholor had an impressive season with the USC Trojans in 2014 with 1,313 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns. He is considered the 10th best receiver in the draft and is projected to go sometime in the second round so this pick makes sense for Kansas City.

Agholor also has experience in fielding kick and punt returns, which could come in handy for the Chiefs. Knile Davis and De’Anthony Thomas seem to have a good grasp on both of these, but it never hurts to keep the options open.

"“Runs hard and picks up speed as he goes, showing surprising toughness as a finisher to get every yard he can. Possesses very good vision to set up blocks, as well as the courage and quickness to cut-back against the grain to take advantage of over-pursuing defenders.” – Brugler and Rang, CBS Sports"

The Chiefs’ wide outs couldn’t haul in a single touchdown last year. If Agholor does indeed become the Chiefs’ second round pick, you can expect him to have several touchdown grabs in 2015. He’d make a great addition to the Kansas City Chiefs.
