Kansas City Chiefs Mock Draft Roundup

Leigh Oleszczak – KC Kingdom

Check out her latest mock draft here.

The Kansas City Chiefs are absolutely in the market for a running back in this year’s draft. They need to replace that big play element that Jamaal Charles once brought to the roster. Christian McCaffrey is certainly a big play guy. As a fit for the Chiefs, he’s just about perfect.

However, this is a strong class for running backs, and there are very good ones to be found as late as the 5th round. With Spencer Ware and Charcandrick West already on the roster, I don’t know that KC will be looking to spend such an early pick on the position. There will be very talented players at other positions in more need of help at #27, so I don’t know that this is the move.
