Chiefs 7-Round Mock Draft: KC Fills Biggest Need Immediately

Round 2, Pick 63: TCU WR Savion Williams

Savion Williams is one of my favorite players in the draft and is someone I will be pounding the table for come draft day. The Chiefs may not have a massive “need” at WR the way they do at other positions, but if Williams is available, they can’t pass on him.

I grade Williams as a top-50 wide receiver and is even someone I would be willing to consider in the first round, but it's very possible he makes it to 63, and if he is there, Brett Veach shouldn’t think twice.

Williams is an incredibly unique athlete who would give Andy Reid a Swiss army knife WR who he can use in a wide variety of ways. Williams has a massive frame and is listed at 6 '5/215, which can make him physically imposing on smaller corners who line up across from him. But there is more to Williams’ game than just his size; he has great movement skills both vertically and laterally. He can line up in the slot and on the outside and even took reps at RB and Wildcat for TCU this year.

I think Williams would be the perfect complement to the Chiefs offense and give Andy Reid a big-time weapon to get creative with over the next several seasons.

Round 3, Pick 66: NC State OL Anthony Belton

Some people may call it crazy to spend two of your first three picks in the draft on tackle, but I think it is worthwhile for the Chiefs to invest heavily on the offensive line. Anthony Belton came into this season as one of my “must watch” guys, as there was a clear display of upside with his frame and power.

Belton was solid in 2024 but did not meet the expectations that some people had for him to boost his draft stock even more. After a good performance at the Senior Bowl, he caught the eyes of some NFL scouts and may have pushed himself into the top 75 again.

Think of Belton in a similar way to how I described Jonah Savaiinaea earlier in this mock draft. Belton is a very large human being, coming in at 6’5/345 with 34 ⅝ inch arms, almost identical to Savaiinaea. Belton has played left tackle in his college career but is more than capable of playing any position on the line except for center.

Adding both Belton and Savaiinaea would give the Chiefs options and competition on the offensive line that I think is necessary to protect Mahomes as much as possible.
