Kansas City Chiefs could ruin Draft for Colts

The Kansas City Chiefs have been one of the most dominant teams in the NFL the last few years and they aren’t interested in seeing that change.

While they are always looking to keep building, they are likely to be more urgent this offseason after trading away perennial Pro Bowl receiver, Tyreek Hill.

This urgency doesn’t bode well for Indianapolis considering that the Chiefs have two first-round picks before the Colts are on the clock and another selection before Indy picks again in the third round.

Kansas City is in the market for two of the same positions Indianapolis is, wide receiver and cornerback. The Chiefs will have ample opportunity to take players the Colts are hoping slide to them.

With Hill out of Kansas City, it’s almost a lock that the Chiefs select a receiver. Unless Indy is willing to trade up and jump 15 spots, Indianapolis will just have to make do with whatever receivers are on the board.

The same goes for the cornerback position. If that’s where the Colts are planning to attack in the third round, they have to monitor who the Chiefs take to close out the second round.

Sometimes in the NFL Draft, teams get unbelievable gifts, and the player they wanted all along falls right into their laps. Indianapolis is hoping for this fortune. The Colts will have a lot of teams working to make sure that doesn’t take place, but anything can happen during Draft weekend.
