Kansas City Chiefs: Four offensive linemen to consider for 2021 NFL Draft
By John McCarty
The Kansas City Chiefs have young bodies along the offensive that should be back with the team next season.
Nick Allegretti, Yasir Durant, and Martinas Rankin all have experience playing in the NFL. Darryl Williams is a rookie on the team’s practice squad with experience at both guard and center at Mississippi State.
How and what the Chiefs think of these players will impact how and what they do in the draft along the line. Do Allegretti and Williams sufficiently take care of the center position? Does Durant take care of the swing tackle spot?
I am a huge fan of Alaric Jackson from Iowa because he’s one of the few listed players that could play as a rookie. Of course, that depends on what happens with Andrew Wylie and the return of Laurent Duvarney-Tardiff.
But Jackson looks like a really good guard and getting him somewhere in the third or fourth round would be a great value. Of course, he could be gone earlier if a team thinks he is their right tackle.
Regardless, with picks, do the Chiefs feel their depth is addressed for future seasons with what they have now, or are they looking for additional depth for the future?
