Counting down the worst NFL draft classes in KC Chiefs history

Every team has them, drafts that just, for whatever reason, do not pan out. The Kansas City Chiefs are not immune to these phenomena. And general managers, despite their abilities, are also not immune to such failures.

Arguably, the best general manager in Chiefs history was Jack Steadman. He was the general manager for Kansas City from 1960-1975. Some of the drafts he orchestrated for the franchise during the 1960s were the best not just in team history, but in league history. Unfortunately for Steadman, he also conducted the worst drafts in team history.

His run from 1970-1975 was quite possibly the worst run of draft picks in league history.
