2022 Recap
In our 5th straight home AFC Championship game, we avenged the '22 loss to the Bengals and went to our 3rd Super Bowl in 4 years, winning the whole damned thing.

It was a "re-tooling" year, stemming from Veach's decision to cut ties with long time starters like Tyrann Matheiu, Charvarius Ward, Daniel Sorenson, and most notably, Tyreek Hill. The talking heads wrote us off before the season began when the rest of the AFC West spent half a billion dollars to take us down, but we didn't write back.

Instead, Veach and co put on an elite performance in the offseason, bringing in some notable FA's (Reid, Dunlap, JJSS, MVS) and absolutely crushing the draft. Of our 10 picks, 9 played significant snaps and there was extreme value found late in the draft. Additionally, there was a mid-season move to acquire Kadarius Toney and it paid off when it counted most.

Two years ago, Veach attacked the OL in the offseason with incredible results. Last year, he attacked the secondary and infused it with youth, setting that position group up for years. This year, there's an opportunity to overhaul both the DLine and the WR rooms.

In addition to the Draft & FA decisions, there are some contract decisions to be made on our own high-impact players, like OBJ, Chris Jones, Sneed, and Gay.


Overview
This is the 12th year in a row that we will be tracking the college players the Chiefs have publicly or privately expressed interest in leading up to the NFL Draft.

No dancing around it - last year, this thread has a poor showing, but not for lack of trying. Cards were held tightly to the vest, as many of the draft picks revealed that they had, in fact, met with the Chiefs. It was just never reported. The only "hit" was a PS QB in Chris Oladokun, who was drafted by the Steelers and snagged after final cuts.

For those who are new: the way this operates is that we collectively monitor various social media sources, blogs, articles and reports for news of the Chiefs' interest in a certain player. When posted in this thread, I will update the OP to include the player. *Please provide the link to the article, the players name, position and team.

I am going to try to link to player profiles when they exist, courtesy of The Draft Network, other sites' write ups, or their team's website.

Let's meet some of our future Chiefs:

This guy or Broderick Jones are the guys I think we get with the first if they are still on the board. Folks think Taylor playing LT is locked in but the fact is KC have spoken with six or seven LT's now. Harrison or Jones would not be picked to play RT here.

My man, I just spent 25 minutes watching dollar store Louis CK name only guys that are already on our list lol

He did have a guy listed as a Safety that I have at CB, so maybe I need to move him over.

I appreciate you sharing, but no new names sadly. I guess it means we are doing a good job in here!

Keep ‘em coming!

New Mexico State SS Jerrick Reed is visiting the #Seahawks today, per source. Reed – who ran a 4.44 40 with a 38-inch vertical and put up 18 bench reps at his pro day – also has a visit with the #Chiefs.

They have the big DE in Furious. They need speed on the outside. From these visits it sure as shit looks like it's going to be DE, OT, and DB in the first three picks. But maybe a WR gets in there?

I'm just being nitpicky but I wanted to let you know that Cooper Hodges played RT at App State but he's being projected inside to OG heavily as a 7th/UDFA and Earl Bostick Jr played LT and is being projected as a swing Tackle (not IOL). I'd probably swap those two in your listing.
