The Mahomes-led Chiefs have won 3 Super Bowls and have suffered two championship losses. Both defeats were the result of an anemic offensive line. If you recall, Brett Veach made it a priority to fix O-line issue in the 2021 draft by adding Creed Humphrey and Trey Smith. Last month, the GM's first move in free agency was to ink Jaylon Moore as the team's new left tackle. The move helped fix the most glaring weakness on the Chiefs' roster and gave the team some insurance should the NFL Draft dominoes not fall their way on Thursday.
In order to sustain the dynasty run under Reid and Mahomes, Veach knows he must continue to strengthen the Chiefs' offensive line. Josh Simmons, when fully healthy, is
talented enough to be a Day 1 starter as a rookie.
If the Chiefs are unable to land Simmons or another LT in RD1, Veach will likely pivot towards the D-line, which, outside of Chris Jones, has been held together with single-year contract players the past two seasons.
