Arrowheadlines: NFL mock draft sees Chiefs trade up in first-round

(via Jaguars)

TRADE

Jaelan Phillips

Miami · Edge · Junior (RS)

Tom Brady was sacked only once in the Super Bowl, which will likely be weighing on the Chiefs’ collective minds as the draft approaches. Phillips played a strong power end for Miami in 2020, showing the ability to rush the passer and corral ball-carriers on the edge. That’s an element the team will need if TanohKpassagnon, Taco Charlton and Alex Okafor depart as free agents. Andy Reid might be willing to give up fourth- and fifth-round selections to secure his services, especially if Kansas City receives selections in those rounds as compensation for 2020 free agent losses.
