After addressing many of their major needs in free agency, the Chiefs have the flexibility to take the best player available. However, many expect the team will look to target a defensive tackle, an edge rusher, or even an offensive lineman if the value is there.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-1\">That said, finding hidden gems later in the draft is always beneficial. One position the Chiefs could look to do this at is wide receiver. Although this year&#8217;s class isn&#8217;t as talented in that spot as it was in 2024, there are still a few late-round prospects to take a look at.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\">One such player Kansas City may target is Maryland&#8217;s Tei Felton. The Athletic&#8217;s scouting expert, Dane Brugler, believes Felton is a 4th-5th round prospect. The 22-year-old receiver could be a nice depth piece as a rookie, who might be able to step into a big role down the line.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">I see why Tai Felton is getting day 2 hype.

While the Ashburn, Virginia native saw the field as a freshman, he wasn&#8217;t a huge part of the offense, recording just five catches for 81 yards in eight games. His sophomore season was slightly better as he recorded 23 catches for 309 yards and two touchdowns in 13 games.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\">In his junior season, Felton improved even more, recording 48 catches for 723 yards and six touchdowns in 13 games. He wrapped up his college career by putting together his best season yet. In 2024, Felton recorded 96 catches for 1,124 yards and nine touchdowns in 12 games.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\">Furthermore, he led the Big Ten in catches per game (8.0) and receiving yards per game (93.7) while breaking D.J Moore&#8217;s school reception record. As a senior, Felton proved he was versatile as he lined up outside and played the most slot snaps of his career.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\">Be that as it may, according to NFL.com&#8217;s Lance\u00a0Zierlein, Felton&#8217;s senior season success came more from target volume than it did from projectable talent. Nevertheless, his versatility can be a replacement for Mecole Hardman for the time being. But who knows, Felton could develop into a good contributor for Kansas City.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"inline-text-9\"><\/h3>\n<figure><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the NFL draft just two days away, Kansas City Chiefs fans are intrigued to see what the team will do with its early picks.
