' best interest to select an offensive lineman or two in the NFL Draft. Not only does it provide them with an ever-flowing stream of talent, but it also increases the team's chances of keeping quarterback Patrick Mahomes safe.
In recent years, selections like Trey Smith, Creed Humphrey and others have helped solidify that process. This spring saw BYU product Kingsley Suamataia enter the fold as the new kid on the block alongside Day 3 picks Hunter Nourzad and C.J. Hanson. Looking ahead to next year, who makes sense for Kansas City to consider?, Ryan Fowler sends USC offensive lineman Jonah Monheim to the Chiefs in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft.
With Joe Thuney likely a Chief for just one more year post-2024 and Smith still not signed to an extension, selecting someone like Monheim makes sense. Additionally, offensive line coach Andy Heck is no stranger to experimenting with guard-tackle hybrids during the offseason and preseason. Is round one too rich to make that move, though? Yes, in this writer's opinion, but a lot can change between now and next April.Jordan Foote is the deputy editor of Arrowhead Report on SI.com, covering the Kansas City Chiefs.
