NFL Mock Draft Roundup: Who are the Kansas City Chiefs taking?

Adonai Mitchell, WR, Texas

Adonai Mitchell is a lengthy wide receiver prospect often mentioned in conjunction with the tier of receivers who are likely going to find themselves available around the time the Chiefs will be on the clock—in that first to second-round range where their placement in the draft will depend a bit more on the specific skill set and offensive scheme of the team that's on the clock.

Mitchell's body of work isn't exactly massive considering he only played one full and productive season this past year when he had 55 catches for 845 yards and 11 touchdowns for the Longhorns. Before that, he'd showcased promise as a freshman at Georgia before a high ankle sprain robbed him of most of his sophomore season and he transferred shortly thereafter.

Field Yates' latest mock draft as ESPN has him linked to the Chiefs at No. 32 overall in the first round, and when Mitchell is on, it's easy to see why. He looks the part with the right combination of hands, length, and speed as a boundary receiver at the next level, but the problem is that he's not a well-rounded product and his frame is light. There are questions of blocking and route-running and, again, the body of work is not substantial.

Is this too risky if the Chiefs are going to take a first-round pick at wideout? They'd be avoiding other positions to do so, but perhaps the home-run potential here is worth the investment.
