Brett Veach is excited about having three picks in the first two rounds of the 2019 NFL Draft—so much so that he’s mentioned it in every single interview clip leading up to the big event.
This draft class is a deep one, to be sure, and the Chiefs have been without key resources on draft night quite a bit over the years. The deals to get quarterbacks, both in 2013 and 2017, left them without key picks in the first and second rounds for Patrick Mahomes and Alex Smith, respectively. The Chiefs were reprimanded for “tampering” with Jeremy Maclin before free agency, which robbed them of a third in 2016.
