Who are the top 10 Kansas City Chiefs on the current roster? We count them down.

It is June, which means there is not a ton of fresh news coming out about the Kansas City Chiefs. Yes, there are OTAs and minicamp, but the fact remains that until training camp gets rolling, there is likely not to be any huge development.

In that vein, I started thinking about the upcoming 2016 regular season. The Chiefs are going into the campaign with very high expectations in some corners, perhaps for the first time in a very long time. It wouldn’t shock most if the Chiefs find themselves in Houston twice this season.

All of this made me look at the roster for holes, seemingly not believing Kansas City could actually be that good. As it turns out, the collection of talent is pretty damn impressive.

Making a list of the top 10 players on the current roster was difficult, and not for the reason it would have been in years past. In fact, it was the opposite. It was very hard to leave some guys off this list. There are some high-quality guys who didn’t make the top 10 and in some instances, didn’t come all that close.

Next: No. 10
