Could the Chiefs avoid drafting a wide receiver this year?

The 2021 NFL Draft is here, but there probably won’t be too much excitement for fans of the Kansas City Chiefs on opening night. The Chiefs are one of four teams that do not currently have a first-round pick. In fact, there is only one other fan base that will have to wait longer than Chiefs fans for their team’s first scheduled pick: the Houston Texans, who don’t have a selection until the third round.

After the trade for left tackle Orlando Brown Jr., the Chiefs’ are scheduled to select at pick no.
