This mock is from Brugler at The Athletic. I like his analysis quite a bit, I’m just posting the Chiefs selections that he suggested.

With cornerback feet and the required toughness at safety, Adderley projects as a starting free safety in the NFL, doing his best work from single-high. Not that it matters, but it doesn’t hurt that Chiefs general manager Brett Veach is a former Delaware Blue Hen as well.
61. Kansas City Chiefs – JJ Arcega-Whiteside, WR, Stanford
Adding Arcega-Whiteside with Tyreek Hill, Sammy Watkins and Travis Kelce might lock up a few more MVP awards for Patrick Mahomes.
63. Kansas City Chiefs (from Los Angeles Rams) – Lonnie Johnson, CB, Kentucky
The Chiefs found an undrafted gem with Charvarius Ward, but more cornerback depth is needed, and Johnson has the size/length they covet.

What does this even mean? I keep seeing this in the media as well as on CP, meaning the Chiefs like tall CBs yet their draft history says otherwise. Nelson isn't even 5' 11", Gaines and Peters are both 6' as is Tremon Smith, even though he was drafted by a different GM.
Unless they are saying that Spags likes tall CBs. I haven't researched that but I heard the exact same thing about Dorsey and his draft history with the Chiefs says differently. [Reply]

Maybe it's saying because we have short CBs we could use a tall one? [Reply]
I just went to The Athletic to read the entire mock.
If we pass on Deebo Samuel, especially if he ended up with the Pats, to take Arcega-Whiteside I'll be pretty disappointed. Dude is a Stefon Diggs clone. [Reply]
Dexter Lawrence has 35'' arms and an 85'' wingspan at 6'4'' and 340 lbs. Houston, Lawrence, Nnadi, Jones in base and Houston, Lawrence, Jones, Speaks in nickle would wreak havoc imo. [Reply]
