The Chiefs seem to be content letting Carson Wentz hit free agency and have been in the market for a backup quarterback this offseason. The Chiefs added Gardner Minshew in free agency and brought back Bailey Zappe, both on one-year deals. The team also has Chris Oladokun as depth who spent most of the year on the practice squad last season.
Andy Reid typically likes to have veteran QBs as backups who have game experience and can help in the film room. The team likely brought in Minshew to play that role as a quality backup and a veteran player who can help on the scout team in the film room. Despite this, Gardner Mishew (and the other two QBs) have contracts the team could easily move on from and the Chiefs could be looking for their future backup QB in the later rounds of the draft. Let's look at some options.
Taylor Elgersma - Canada
The first guy that I have listed here is a bit of an under-the-radar player who has displayed all the physical tools to be successful at the NFL level. Elgersma is a guy who really intrigues me after his performance at the Senior Bowl, where he impressed me but had some missteps as well. He shows off a big tall frame as well as a top-tier arm in this year's draft with an upside to be productive in the NFL.
Elgersma is going to take some time before he can be a solid NFL quarterback, and may be an option as a UDFA after the draft. It's unlikely he will be ready to hold a QB 2 role in the NFL on day one, but could be a third option in Kansas City behind Minshew. Elgersma is unlikely to provide depth in Week 1, but shows flashes of being a potential NFL QB and could carve out a role for himself with some development in Kansas City.
