Chiefs draft review by analyst will scare entire NFL originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.

The Kansas City Chiefs had two first-round selections thanks to a poor 2025 season and the trading of star corner Trent McDuffie.

Chiefs general manager Brett Veach knew he had an opportunity to turbo-charge the roster reset, and it was a huge chance to put Kansas City back on the map.

And he did just that with corner Mansoor Delane and defensive tackle Peter Woods being selected in the first round. Plus, R Mason Thomas in the later round, the Chiefs hit on their early picks.

So much so that CBS Sports' Pete Prisco thinks Kansas City nailed the draft.

"The Chiefs killed this draft," Prisco wrote. "They traded up to land the top corner in Mansoor Delane, then landed defensive tackle Peter Woods later in the first, and followed up with Thomas. It was a great first two rounds."

The Chiefs addressed their needs superbly. They got a starting corner, a starting-caliber defensive tackle, plus an edge rusher to help Chris Jones and George Karlaftis.

Now, all that is needed is for the Chiefs to welcome back Patrick Mahomes for Week 1, and all will be right in the world.

Granted, it won't be as easy as they, but the Chiefs have had the sort of offseason they needed after the 2025 debacle.

Now, there's a real chance that the NFL only got a one-season reprieve from the AFC's apex predator.
