Kansas City Chiefs 2021 NFL Draft: Five players Chiefs could target on day two

2021 NFL Draft: Five players Chiefs could target on day two

KC makes their 2021 Draft debut today. Here's who they could go after.
75756A5E-120A-4932-810C-2FD980DB785E
By Cam Ellis

The Chiefs had a quiet Thursday night. Originally scheduled to pick 31st overall, the team sent that pick (as well as their third- and fourth-rounders) to Baltimore for left tackle Orlando Brown Jr. After watching the action on Thursday, however, Brett Veach and company have a busy day in front of them, with two picks on Friday night: 58 and 63. Here's who they could look to draft with those two picks:

Teven Jenkins

1 Teven Jenkins, OT Oklahoma State

Every team who's drafting in the second round could probably use Jenkins, so the Chiefs certainly won't be alone in their pursuit. After (supposedly) moving on from both of 2020's starting tackles, Jenkins would make a great pairing with Brown, forming the team's next great pair of tackles. The Chiefs need a Day 1 starter, and Jenkins is their guy.

Pat Freiermuth

2 Pat Freiermuth, TE Penn State

It's hard to feel excited about a TE class that falls off so much after Kyle Pitts, though that may speak more to the insane talent of Pitts than the guys after him. The Chiefs could use a tight end to put alongside Travis Kelce, and Freiermuth fits the mold. He can run, he can catch, and he was a two-time captain at Penn State. Like all rookie tight ends, there's probably a steep learning curve ahead of Freiermuth, but who better to work him through that than Andy Reid?

Dillon Radunz

3 Dillon Radunz, OT North Dakota State

At 6'6 and over 300 lbs, Radunz certainly looks the part. If Jenkins falls off the board within the first few picks on Friday night, Radunz could be there for Kansas City at 58. Nothing about his profile jumps off the page, but Radunz is rock solid at every part of the game, and his projection floor is still probably a very good NFL player. After last year's Super Bowl, getting young guys who can pass protect may be priority 1, 2, and 3.

Terrace Marshall Jr.

4 Terrace Marshall, WR LSU

At 6'3, Marshall would immediately become the tallest impact receiver on the roster: of the Chiefs' top three receivers (in terms of receptions), Demarcus Robinson (6'1) is the tallest. Marshall is fast, explosive, and has shown the ability to go up and make tough catches against some of college football's best athletes. More playmakers are probably a luxury, as opposed to a necessity, for KC, but getting Pat Mahomes more talent can't be a *bad* thing.

Christian Barmore

5 Christian Barmore, DT Alabama

Barmore is still on the board after being invited to attend the draft in person, which is just super awkward. Optics aside, Barmore is the highest graded defensive tackle on a lot of people's boards, which would obviously be great value for Kansas City at 58 (or 63). The NFL-level talent that's come through Alabama's defensive line speaks for itself, and Barmore graded higher during his time there than *any* of them. There are apparently some concerns about coachability, but that shouldn't get in KC's way if he falls to them.
