Kansas City Draft Picks

CB
Position
- Draft Grade: B+
- Pre-Draft Rank: 10
- School: Washington
- Height: 5' 11"
- Weight: 195
Eric Edholm's Commentary
This is not the Washington corner we thought they’d end up with, but McDuffie is a hyper-competitive, fast, man-cover corner with a compact frame and ball skills. We thought a pass rusher or receiver might be on the docket, but how can we argue with the trade up here to get one of our favorite players? McDuffie brings a Tyrann Mathieu-caliber energy, which will work in Kansas City.

- Draft Grade: B+

Eric Edholm's Commentary
Kansas City is better on defense now with McDuffie and Karlaftis, who is their type of high-energy power rusher. He has a limitless reserve of energy and strong hands, although his all-around game remains a bit raw and underdeveloped.

- School: W. Michigan
- Height: 5' 10"
- Weight: 195
Eric Edholm's Commentary
The Chiefs now have made three really nice value picks, moving down four slots and nabbing a sure-handed, quicker-than-fast receiver who has been more successful outside than in the slot, despite a body type that typically gets pushed inside. Moore isn't Tyreek Hill but can help develop into a reliable option for Patrick Mahomes.

- School: Cincinnati
- Height: 6' 1"
- Weight: 210
Eric Edholm's Commentary
A sometimes forgotten member of the Bearcats' playoff team this past season, Cook quietly put together a nice career there after transferring from Howard. He's more of a box safety, as his coverage ability can be spotty when asked to cover large swaths of grass. But he's tough, competitive and fits the theme of the Chiefs' 2022 crop.

- Draft Grade: B-
- Pre-Draft Rank: 50
- School: Wisconsin
- Height: 6' 2"
- Weight: 261
Eric Edholm's Commentary
Chenal is built like an adolescent rhino and is one of the best run stoppers and blitizers at this position in the class. Just don't ask him to cover anyone in man; his change of direction is not his strength. Is this too much overlap with what the Chiefs have with Nick Bolton? Perhaps. But we thought Chenal might go 40 or so picks earlier.
