The Chiefs also got Tennessee defensive tackle Omarr Norman-Lott, Louisville defensive end Ashton Gillotte, California cornerback Nohl Williams, Utah State wide receiver Jalen Royals, Oregon linebacker Jeffrey Bassa and SMU running back Brashard Smith with their other picks.

One player who might get just such an opportunity is Rice tight end Graham Walker. While he might not be familiar to many football fans in Kansas City, they do know his half-brother: Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
