Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs ended their previous with a bang by bagging the Super Bowl when they defeated the San Francisco 49ers. In the upcoming draft, though, the franchise is projected to fix its wide receiver issues by picking Adonai Mitchell.
Right before the playoffs, the Chiefs dominated the AFC West division by finishing with an 11-6 record. From there, Mahomes and company decimated the Miami Dolphins in the wild card round, and got a close win over the Buffalo Bills in the divisional playoffs.
After handling their business with the Bills, Kansas City won the AFC championship by defeating Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens. After that, the Chiefs won in thrilling fashion over the San Francisco 49ers to become champions.
Although the Chiefs went on an impressive run during the playoffs, there are still some areas in their game that need to be improved. The franchise hopes that it can build its momentum and get better via the upcoming draft.
Kansas City Chiefs Projected to Go After Adonai Mitchell in Draft to Pair with Patrick Mahomes
One issue the Chiefs will have to fix is how to improve the wide receiver position. Field Yates projects who Kansas City will pick in the upcoming draft to address this concern in an article for ESPN:
“The Chiefs’ wide receiver issues are no mystery, and Mitchell would help the cause. The 6-4 196-pounder is silky smooth when running routes and has the frame and length to make his mark down the field and in the red zone. The Chiefs hit a home run with Rashee Rice in the second round last April, and this would provide them with another playmaker to build the passing game around. Mitchell caught 11 touchdowns last season, and with his 15.4 yards-per-catch average, he’d be great for Patrick Mahomes and the Super Bowl champs,” Yates wrote.
Getting Mitchell is possible if the Texas Longhorns star still available by the 32nd pick. If he is, expect great things to come from the wide receiver, especially with Patrick Mahomes running things on the field for Kansas City.
