Proposed Chiefs-Packers Trade Lands KC ‘Top-Tier’ WR Prospect

The Kansas City Chiefs have the opportunity to totally remake their wide receiver room this spring with several pass-catchers that are either cut candidates or free agents.

If general manager Brett Veach moves on from someone like Marquez Valdes-Scantling or Kadarius Toney, however, he must replace them. Free agency is always one potential avenue to do so, but targeting a premium talent in the draft could be more beneficial long-term — especially if KC trades up in round one.

We’ve seen Veach move up for positions of need in the past (CB Trent McDuffie, WR Rashee Rice, OT Wanya Morris) and NFL Network draft analyst Chad Reuter believes the GM might jump up once again in 2024. On February 12, Reuter outlined a mock draft trade proposal with the Green Bay Packers in round one:

Going one step further, Reuter had Kansas City using the top-25 selection on Florida State wideout Keon Coleman.

“Selecting receiver Rashee Rice last year in the second round was a nice start, but the Chiefs’ inconsistency at the [WR] position could force them to trade up for another top-tier talent,” he wrote, regarding Coleman.
