Quest for a three-peat: Plotting the ideal KC Chiefs offseason
2024 Mock Draft
Round One, Pick 32
Keon Coleman, WR, Florida State
The Chiefs grab a young wide receiver to add to a now solid wide receiver room. Coleman's speed won't blow anyone away, but he's a good enough deep threat and doesn't struggle to track the ball who won't drop many passes, which is refreshing for Kansas City.
Round 2, Pick 64
Ruke Orhorhoro, DT, Clemson
The Chiefs pick up some much-needed depth behind Chris Jones. Defensive tackle has been a neglected position for years by Kansas City. Orhorhoro is a high-ceiling prospect as a pass-rusher, but he has a lot of work to do in that area. His run defense is also solid, which should allow him to see the field on early downs as a rookie.
Round 3, Pick 95
Dominick Puni, OT, Kansas
The Chiefs will likely ride with Wanya Morris at left tackle in 2024, but here's some insurance. Puni has experience at left tackle and left guard, so he could be a long-term option at both. He was great in pass protection, but his run-blocking could use some work. His arm length might scare off the Chiefs playing him at tackle, but he could be the successor to Joe Thuney if he's a cap casualty in 2025.
Round 4, Pick 133
Michael Barrett, LB, Michigan
The Chiefs like to draft linebackers and Michael Barrett would make sense around this spot.
Round 5, Pick 158
Dylan Laube, RB, New Hampshire
After the departure of Jerick McKinnon, the Chiefs could use a receiving back and Dylan Laube is one of the better options in this class. His blocking needs to improve, but he would be a fantastic complement to Isiah Pacheco.
Round 5, Pick 172
Jaheim Bell, TE, Florida State
Kansas City double dips with another Florida State pass-catcher. Travis Kelce isn't getting any younger, so the Chiefs should start looking for his successor. Bell doesn't struggle to get open against both man and zone coverage but has struggled with drops. He lined in the slot a lot at Florida State and blocking isn't his forte. He can line up all over the field, good ability to generate separation, struggles with drops on occasion, and blocking isn't a huge strength. Does that description match another Chiefs tight end?
