The one downside for the Kansas City Chiefs in this year’s draft was watching them complete their original set of picks after the selection of defensive end Mike Danna in Round 5. The 2020 NFL Draft was an especially deep class, yet the Chiefs had already traded away their sixth and seventh round picks (for Darron Lee and Jordan Lucas, respectively).
Next year, however, the Chiefs should have a few more picks to utilize as general manager Brett Veach pleases. The 2021 NFL Draft has yet to form, so it’s hard to get a good idea of the talent level, but the Chiefs should have much more fun in the mid-section of the draft due to incoming compensatory picks—or at least what they are projected to get.
