A QB in the fourth round?

[The Franchise]

That's what Brugler thinks in his latest mock draft.

https://theathletic.com/4413880/2023...ck-draft-2023/

1 (31): Keion White, Edge Georgia Tech
2 (63): Tyler Scott, WR, Cincinnati
3 (95): Jaelyn Duncan, OT, Maryland
4 (122): Jaren Hall, QB, BYU
4 (134): DeMarvion Overshown, LB, Texas
5 (166): Desjuan Johnson, DT, Toledo
6 (178): Sean Tucker, RB, Syracuse
6 (217): Grant DuBose, WR, Charlotte
7 (249): Blake Whiteheart, TE, Wake Forest
7 (250): Nic Jones, CB, Ball State

31. Kansas City Chiefs: Keion White, Edge, Georgia Tech
The Chiefs will be examining their pass-rush options early, and White will be near the top of their list. The NFL announced that White is one of 17 prospects who will be attending this year’s draft, and he’s the last of those 17 to appear in this mock. With the draft being held in Kansas City, though, it would make for good TV to have the Chiefs’ selection already in town.

63. Kansas City Chiefs: Tyler Scott, WR, Cincinnati
With the Chiefs expected to add wide receiver help at some point in the first three rounds, Scott is a name to keep on the radar. A true three-level threat, he will be drafted somewhere in the 50-100 range and look like a steal three years from now.

122. Kansas City Chiefs: Jaren Hall, QB, BYU
The BYU connection between Andy Reid and Hall is a fun story, but I’m told the Chiefs “love” Hall’s skill set. Kansas City understands the importance of the backup quarterback, so much so that the Chiefs might even make this pick a round earlier.

178. Kansas City Chiefs: Sean Tucker, RB, Syracuse
The medical question marks might drop Tucker on draft weekend — how far is anyone’s guess. But the value at this point in the draft would make him well worth the risk for the Chiefs.

My biggest knocks on Hall are that when he doesn't take off running too soon he holds the ball too long. I also don't like how much he turns his back to his receivers but that could be partially some offensive design shit in there which is equally crap.

I think you might be able to coach the warts out but who knows? I'd hope he's a lot more coachable than Zach Wilson.

Anyhow, he'd be fine but I don't like him in the 4th.

Two days ago I would have been fine with drafting a QB in the 4th. I think Shane Buechele can be the 2nd QB but would not hand him the job with no competition.

The addition of Blane Gabbert changes my opinion and lowers the need at QB for KC.

I still would sign a UDFA or maybe use a low round pick on QB for camp arm or maybe Practice Squad player.

I’m glad we got Blaine I’d rather use these resources to put talent around Mahomes vs a project rookie behind him.
