On Friday, NFL.com’s Eric Edholm launched his second mock draft of the season.
“In my thoughts, Mock Draft 2.0 — nonetheless virtually a month away from the 2024 NFL Draft — must be used to shoot your shot,” he wrote.
“Take a number of dangers. Mission some trades. Have a bit enjoyable, will ya?”
However whereas the groups making the picks on the high of this simulation have been a bit totally different, the gamers coming off the board have been largely the identical. And when it was time for the Kansas Metropolis Chiefs to make their choice, Edholm took a participant who has been despatched to the group in two of the final six mock drafts we’ve lined.
32. Kansas Metropolis Chiefs: OT Kingsley Suamataia, BYU
I might see a receiver coming off the board right here, however the want at deal with feels larger to me proper now. Andy Reid can dip into his former faculty’s expertise to land the large, gifted Suamataia, whose tape is nice however barely underwhelming. Nonetheless, all the weather are there for the previous five-star recruit to be a great professional.
Edholm’s first mock of the season — means again on February 2 — presumed that Kansas Metropolis wouldn’t re-sign defensive deal with Chris Jones; he had the Chiefs taking Missouri defensive deal with Darius Robinson at 32. However with Jones now signed to a five-year deal, his most up-to-date effort nonetheless has Robinson on the board because the second spherical begins. Edholm now believes Suamataia will develop into the third consecutive deal with to be chosen on the finish of the primary spherical; earlier than Kansas Metropolis picks, he has Oklahoma’s Tyler Guyton touchdown with the Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49ers taking Arizona’s Jordan Morgan.
So the pattern continues to construct steam. By means of March 15, 73% of the mocks we’ve lined confirmed the Chiefs taking a large receiver with their first choose, whereas simply 7% projected an offensive deal with to Kansas Metropolis. Since then, nevertheless, the predictions for the thirty second choose have been a lot totally different.
