Recent Chiefs drafts
So wouldn't this say the Chiefs haven't drafted very well recently? |

The draft might not have been deep, but we swung and missed on nearly everyone of them. Especially trading up and taking Breeland Speaks; that was brutal.

Oddly enough, I thought our rookies gave us a huge boost in 2020 and played a ton of snaps. |

CEH has been Veach's only first-round pick. I would say that makes a big difference.

Fenton and Allegretti were 6th round picks the previous year as well. Not stars, but great value where they were picked.

Add in Andy's penchant for not trusting rookies.

I wouldn't place much stock in that graph, but we do need to draft (or develop) a bit better moving forward. We haven't drafted an elite guy since 2017. It appears Sneed has that potential, but it's too early to tell.
We'll need the next wave of Chris Jones, Tyreek Hills and Patrick Mahomes if we want to keep this thing running. |

So you've got guys like Thornhill and Sneed and (insert player) that could just take time to develop to that elite level. The day one elite players just aren't gonna be something that happens very often considering the Chiefs draft spots. |

Veach traded up three times in the 2018 draft and each was pretty bad. We traded picks 54 and 78 to the Bengals for picks 46 (Speaks) 100 (DOD). The Bengals turned pick 54 into Jessie Bates who is a real good young safety. We traded picks 86 and 122 to Baltimore to get Derrick Nnadi at pick 75. Nnadi wasn't a bad pick - he's a good run-stuffing lineman. Baltimore, though, used the picks on Mark Andrews and Kenny Young. Andrews is a stud and Young is a decent LB who now plays for the Rams. We traded picks 233 and 243 to the Pats for pick 198 to get Kahlil McKenzie. Pick 233 was traded to the Eagles and they used it to pick Jordan Mailata. I know the Eagles really like Mailata and I've heard he may be the Eagles LT of the future. Hindsight is 20/20 and no team makes the right choices with each pick. His 2019 draft was better and 2020 has the potential to be an excellent class. |

Hopefully we learned from that draft. |
