Brett Veach, in his first year as general manger last year, proved he loved to be aggressive and showed that moving up three separate times for players.
This year, drafting near the bottom of the first and twice at the bottom of the second, it won’t surprise me if the Chiefs are aggressive in the opposite direction, moving down out of the first round and adding selections in the middle rounds.
Don’t be surprised if the Chiefs add offense early, knowing that while the offense is okay this year, there are legitimate long-term concerns with free agency, salary cap, and age on the scoring side of the scrimmage.
Depth is a concern and the Chiefs need to address those issues throughout the draft, but don’t expect a defense-only draft as we (mostly) did last year.
