/All I really want for my birthday is for you to read my breakdown on Minnesota WR Rashod Bateman. He may not be as fast as some of the other game-breakers in this receiver class, but I think he’d be a great pick for the Chiefs. #100in100

/Landon Dickerson has some of the best tape of all O-Linemen in this year’s draft class. With that said, he comes with some red flags in the form of concerns about his medicals. Read my report for more info & a draft grade. #100in100

/ #100in100 Sticking with OL! Oklahoma’s Creed Humphrey has a lot of traits that translate well to the NFL. If you can look past his average athleticism, you’ll see a damn good player who the Chiefs may want to take a look at.

/ #100in100 NFL Network’s Daniel Jeremiah recently mocked Washington DT Levi Onwuzurike to the Chiefs with pick No. 32. He’s a player with a ton of potential, but are the Chiefs in the position to take the “best player available” here?
Scout: https://www.si.com/nfl/chiefs/draft/levi-onwuzurike-kansas-city-chiefs
/ #100in100 He doesn’t play a position of immediate need for the Chiefs, but Pittsburgh safety Paris Ford makes things happen. He’s athletic, aggressive and versatile, which may remind you of a current member of the Chiefs’ secondary

/ #100in100 Houston EDGE Payton Turner may not be the most refined pass-rusher in this class, but he brings a lot to the table. His athletic ability and versatility alone make him an enticing prospect whose draft stock should keep rising

/ #100in100 Washington EDGE Joe Tryon sat out of the 2020 campaign, which might just allow him to be available on Day 2 of the draft for the Chiefs. While he still has plenty of room to grow, he already boasts some intriguing qualities. https://www.si.com/nfl/chiefs/draft/kansas-city-chiefs-nfl-draft-scouting-report-washington-edge-joe-tryon
/ #100in100 Notre Dame EDGE Daelin Hayes has been turning heads this week at the Senior Bowl, and rightfully so. He’s capable of winning in a variety of ways and if he can do so consistently, he’ll be a great value pick on Day 3 of the draft: https://www.si.com/nfl/chiefs/draft/daelin-hayes-kansas-city-chiefs
/ #100in100 Alabama tackle Alex Leatherwood would be a perfect addition along the Chiefs’ OL. His strength, power and versatility are all top-notch — read the article below for more details and my draft grade: https://www.si.com/nfl/chiefs/draft/kansas-city-chiefs-nfl-draft-scouting-report-alabama-offensive-tackle-alex-leatherwood
/ #100in100 Wake Forest WR Sage Surratt has the physicality and frame to be a legit downfield and red zone threat at the next level. His athleticism is a question mark, but he’d still add an interesting dynamic to the Chiefs’ offense: https://www.si.com/nfl/chiefs/draft/kansas-city-chiefs-nfl-draft-scouting-report-wake-forest-wide-receiver-sage-surratt
/ #100in100 ASU wideout Frank Darby had an underwhelming 2020 season, but that may play into the favor of teams looking to draft him late. The big-play threat has some work to do, but boasts intriguing upside IMO.

/ #100in100 LSU wideout Terrace Marshall Jr. boasts a ton of potential, but needs work in order to reach that ceiling. How would he fit in the Chiefs’ offense? Check out the article below for a detailed scouting report and draft grade: https://www.si.com/nfl/chiefs/draft/terrace-marshall-kansas-city-chiefs
/ #100in100 Sam Cosmi is one of the top offensive line prospects in this year’s draft. He’s long, moves well and could step in and replace Eric Fisher/Mitchell Schwartz instantly. He also fits well in a zone-run scheme.
Report & grade: https://www.si.com/nfl/chiefs/draft/kansas-city-chiefs-nfl-draft-scouting-report-texas-offensive-tackle-samuel-cosmi
/ #100in100 Texas EDGE Joseph Ossai is one of the best speed rushers in this year’s class, and he still has a ton of room to grow. If he get stronger, he’d be a great partner opposite Frank Clark in due time. Full report and grade: https://www.si.com/nfl/chiefs/draft/kansas-city-chiefs-nfl-draft-scouting-report-texas-edge-joseph-ossai
/ #100in100 UAB EDGE Jordan Smith is about as high-risk, high-reward as it gets in the draft. He has length and athleticism that simply can’t be taught, but needs a lot of work before he thinks about contributing full-time. Report and grade: https://www.si.com/nfl/chiefs/draft/kansas-city-chiefs-nfl-draft-scouting-report-uab-edge-jordan-smith
/ #100in100 Illinois WR Josh Imatorbhebhe a very interesting Day 3 prospect. His frame and contested catch ability should translate well to the NFL and if he can refine the rest of his game, there’s a chance he becomes a starting X.

/ #100in100 PFF’s recent mock draft had TCU safety Trevon Moehrig mocked to the Chiefs in the first round. He has good coverage skills and range as a free safety, likely serving best as a quality single-high or split-zone S in the NFL.

/ #100in100 “Off”season...If Daniel Sorensen leaves the Chiefs in free agency, their need for a third safety will be legitimate. UCF’s Richie Grant is an athletic and versatile playmaker, and one who’d be a fun option in KC: https://www.si.com/nfl/chiefs/draft/kansas-city-chiefs-nfl-draft-scouting-report-ucf-safety-richie-grant
/ #100in100 Ifeatu Melifonwu is a lengthy and physical corner who still needs a bit of work, but has immense potential. This probably isn’t a year the Chiefs should invest in a CB early but if they do, Melifonwu makes a lot of sense.
Scout: https://www.si.com/nfl/chiefs/draft/kansas-city-chiefs-nfl-draft-scouting-report-syracuse-cornerback-ifeatu-melifonwu
/ #100in100 The Chiefs’ linebacker situation isn’t an issue... yet. If they’re looking to develop a high-ceiling player to fly around the field with Willie Gay Jr. down the road, UNC’s Chazz Surratt is intriguing (to say the least)
Scout: https://www.si.com/nfl/chiefs/draft/kansas-city-chiefs-nfl-draft-scouting-report-north-carolina-linebacker-chazz-surratt
/ #100in100 Notre Dame EDGE Adetokunbo Ogundeji measured well at the Senior Bowl. In addition to being 6’3” w/ long arms and a great wingspan, he has a decent get-off at the LOS and enough power to be a more than worthy Day 3 pick: https://www.si.com/nfl/chiefs/draft/kansas-city-chiefs-nfl-draft-scouting-report-notre-dame-edge-adetokunbo-ogundeji
/ #100in100 BYU IDL Khyiris Tonga has a quick first step and a bull rush that led to some disruptive plays during his collegiate career. He brings value as a rotational/developmental Day 3 draft pick.

/ #100in100 Pittsburgh EDGE Patrick Jones II has a sky-high ceiling, a terrific first step and a good future profile as a 4-3 defensive end. He needs to mature a bit but if he does so, look out. Report and round grade: https://www.si.com/nfl/chiefs/draft/kansas-city-chiefs-nfl-draft-scouting-report-pittsburgh-edge-patrick-jones-ii
/ #100in100 Another Pitt EDGE! Rashad Weaver doesn’t boast the same star ceiling as some other pass-rushers in this year’s class, but teams will know what they’re getting — a smart, balanced player. Should the Chiefs be interested? Scout: https://www.si.com/nfl/chiefs/draft/kansas-city-chiefs-nfl-draft-scouting-report-pittsburgh-edge-rashad-weaver
