Final 4 Round Mock Draft

staylor26 · 04-25-2022, 12:40 PM

29. George Karlaftis, EDGE, Purdue - The closer we get, the more it feels like Karlaftis will be on the board when the Chiefs pick. I find it hard to believe they would pass him up too, like some are predicting, but I’m going to guess that they wouldn’t.

30. Boye Mafe, EDGE, Minnesota - Mafe would be a great compliment to Karlaftis. The Chiefs can feel much better about the position with a high ceiling guy to go with their high floor pick at 30.

50. DeMarvin Leal, DT, Texas A&M - When Leal was still getting 1st round buzz, I thought it was a little overrated, but if he makes it to 50, which is right around his consensus, I’m all for this pick. High upside pass rusher on the interior. You’ve completely rejuvenated your DL group with the first 3 picks, and can now focus on other needs.

62. John Metchie lll, WR, Alabama - This might take a slight trade up, but I’m willing to make it happen either way. Metchie is a perfect fit for this offense, and should be able to contribute down the stretch this season.

94. Nick Cross, S, Maryland - The Chiefs will be taking a safety at some point, and round 3 feels like a sweet spot. Great athlete that might allow you to let Thornhill walk next season if he gets a huge pay day after a career contract year.

103. Zyon McCollum, CB, Sam Houston State - Would anybody he surprised to see the Chiefs wait till the middle of the draft to take a corner? I know I wouldn’t be. They’re probably expecting Bradberry to be cut, and will go with a h/w/s guy like Sneed again.

121. Erik Ezukanma, WR, Texas Tech - He’s already been working out with Mahomes a bit in Texas. After going with a guy like Matchie, a bigger X type makes a lot of sense in the 4th. I think the Chiefs will be taking 2 WRs for sure.

135. Jake Ferguson, TE, Wisconsin - just like last year, the Chiefs take a TE that is eerily similar to Kelce in terms of skill set. Obviously, Ferguson won’t be Kelce either, but I think he’s better than Gray though.

I'd like Metchie in this offense more than Pickens. And I'm hoping that they draft Ezukanma.

After hearing about the issues with Pickens I'm falling out of love with him.

Edit: I wonder what Metchies 40 time would have been

CatfishBob2 · 04-25-2022, 01:05 PM

This draft is perfectly fine with me.

I'm not sure what Ferguson is. But I don't want another Kelce when he's gone. Give me a big target that blocks well with decent athleticism that catches everything.

What even is this shit? You don't want another Kelce? You don't want another top 3 TE every year?

Chill bro, lol. First of all you're not going to find another top 2 TE unless you're very lucky. Secondly Kelce's skillset is nearly one of one like Tyreek. I don't want to get to caught up in replacing what they do cause odds are you won't . My ideal TE isn't exactly what Kelce is, not saying he isn't a HOF TE

I just don't think you find another TE thats as savvy before and after the catch. Less than that is just another receiving TE to me. The mold I prefer is a Gronkowski type mold that can block their ass of but is also a receiving threat and redzone monster. I thought the OP was great, I was just nitpicking

You don’t want arguably the best TE in NFL history?? Wtf?

Dunerdr · 04-25-2022, 01:09 PM

I dont see them going with two edges that early but damn if i dont like it. I'd love this draft. I'd probably even send in a letter to brad vatch congratulating him on it.

RunKC · 04-25-2022, 01:16 PM

Demarvin Leal is one of the hardest prospects to evaluate IMO. Would definitely be boom or bust with him

CupidStunt · 04-25-2022, 01:52 PM

GRAND SLAM

I'm so down with revamping a position group, especially with extra draft capital. Turn a weakness to a potential strength, just like OL last year.

I'd even be down to do it at DB. People would shit a brick, but there's so much upside to it.

Kiimo · 04-25-2022, 01:56 PM

Cross posting but Karlaftis could be there.

According to ESPN's Todd McShay, Tyler Linderbaum, George Karlaftis and Nakobe Dean are all likely to fall out of Round 1. https://t.co/OTAlpNU5cz

I don't see Calvin Austin in there anywhere.

I'm guessing that's a typo?
