Defensive Line

  • Derrick Brown, Auburn
  • Raekwon Davis, Alabama
  • A.J. Epenesa, Iowa
  • Yetur Gross-Matos, Penn State
  • Javon Kinlaw, South Carolina

The Chiefs have a blend of need at defensive tackle and end.

Epenesa is a powerful end that fits the mold of what the Chiefs look for upfront. Gross-Matos is one of my favorite players this year and has all of the physical tools to be a special player at the next level. Replacing Chris Jones would be a difficult task, but if you turn on the tape you see some flashes of Jones in Kinlaw.

Derrick Brown and Raekwon Davis are both bigger bodied guys who have versatility that could benefit the red and gold.
