Kansas City Chiefs: Final 2020 NFL Mock Draft
ROUND 4: PICK 32 (138TH OVERALL)
Offensive Guard. Wolverines . Michael Onwenu. 132. player. 811.
Interior offensive line is a big need for the Chiefs this offseason, but unfortunately there aren’t a ton of top prospects at guard or center. The Chiefs still have Laurent Duvernay-Tardif at right guard, but left guard has been revolving door over the years.

Michael Onwenu isn’t a starter from the get-go, but he could provide depth in case of injury and has the potential to become a bigger role along the line. Ideally, the Chiefs would address interior offensive line earlier on in the draft, but there just wasn’t anyone there worth taking whenever KC was on the clock.
WHAT EXPERTS ARE SAYING:
"Powerful and wide, Onwenu’s natural play strength is somewhat offset by his below-average athletic ability. With better hand placement and attention to footwork, he can take a step forward as a drive blocker with the ability to move bodies around, but he’ll be a scheme-specific prospect -Lance Zierlein, NFL.com"
ROUND 5: PICK 32 (177TH OVERALL)
Khalil Davis. 177. player. 810. . Defensive Lineman. Cornhuskers
With their final pick in our final 2020 NFL Mock Draft, the Kansas City Chiefs selected Khalil Davis out of Nebraska. Davis was one of the Huskers’ best defensive players last season, totaling eight sacks in 11 games.
Day 3 prospects are very much the type of players who can be tremendous talent if they’re in the right system, but can also flame out if a team isn’t sure of how to use them. Davis falls into that category and could be someone who either is a high-impact player or we barely hear from him.
The Chiefs need depth on defense and while Davis isn’t a starter, he can be a rotational player and could add a nice pass rusher in certain packages.
WHAT EXPERTS ARE SAYING:
"With a good first step and a low center of gravity, Davis has the ability to play through late lateral challenges and press into gaps as a penetration defender. His ceiling is tempered by problematic length and insufficient block shedding skills but he’s going to provide value if given the chance to shoot gaps on obvious passing situations. -Kyle Crabbs, The Draft Network"
