Round 3, No. 74 overall: Edge Gabe Jacas, Illinois
One premium pick alone won’t help the Chiefs’ pass rush woes from 2025. Jacas is a big-bodied edge at 6-foot-4 and 260 pounds who totaled 85 pressures and 20 sacks in his last two seasons at Illinois. There are some questions about his run defense but his high motor will earn him plenty of coverage sacks when possible.
Round 4, No. 109 overall: WR Ted Hurst, Georgia State
Hurst is one of the best small-school standouts in the class with size (6-foot-4, 206 pounds) and speed (4.42 40-yard dash) at outside receiver. The Chiefs haven’t had a threat like him on the outside in years. He’s shown the ability to shake press coverage well but may need time to get up to speed at the NFL level.
