Chiefs Draft: Donovan Jackson taken at 31 in new CBS Sports mock

In a mock draft published on Friday, CBS Sports’ Kyle Stackpole predicted that with the 31st selection in the NFL Draft, the Kansas City Chiefs would take a Buckeye guard.

31. Kansas City Chiefs: G Donovan Jackson, Ohio State

Prospect rank: 67Position rank: 7

I feel like I’m morally obligated to give the Chiefs an offensive lineman after what happened in the Super Bowl against the Eagles. Donovan Jackson moved from guard to left tackle after Josh Simmons went down in October, and he was an invaluable part of Ohio State’s run to winning the College Football Playoff national championship. Regardless of where he lines up, he’ll help give Patrick Mahomes more time to work his magic.

Since the end of the NFL’s regular season, we’ve covered 26 mock drafts on Arrowhead Pride. In four of them — more than any other player — Jackson has been the Chiefs’ first-round pick.

The idea that Kansas City might take a guard who spent some time at left tackle during his final college season may not be very appealing. You might prefer that the Chiefs get the player that Jackson replaced: Josh Simmons. But in Stackpole’s mock, the Ohio State tackle was taken by the San Francisco 49ers with the 11th pick — much further into the first round than Kansas City will probably be able to reach. A total of five tackles are off the board before the Chiefs go on the clock.

But this wouldn’t necessarily be a desperation move. Suppose the situation with Trey Smith isn’t resolved by the end of April. If the team can’t make a deal with him — or he is ultimately traded away — Jackson could step right into Smith’s spot. But if Smith ends up returning, Jackson might turn out to be the team’s best option at left tackle.

If you still don’t like this idea, there’s one consolation: In Stackpole’s mock, Tennessee EDGE James Pearce Jr. is still available at 31.
