Round 5, 176th overall

Pick Analysis. IOL. Drake Jackson. 5. Scouting Report. Kentucky. player. 833

The Kansas City Chiefs need to find a way to add quality depth across their offensive line this offseason. The addition of Vera-Tucker in the first round of this 2021 NFL mock draft certainly helps, but they need to keep looking for value. Here, they make an interesting addition at the center position by bringing Drake Jackson into the mix.

Jackson is a center-only offensive line prospect who shows quick feet and great on-field awareness. His lack of bulk up front is apparent, but Jackson moves well in space, is an impact second-level blocker and does a nice job of maintaining proper pad level. In Jackson, the Kansas City Chiefs find a possible starting center with this late-round pick.

Round 5, 180th overall

player. 807. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. 5. Illinois. Josh Imatorbhebhe. WR

Josh Imatorbhebhe is a big, physical and explosive wide receiver prospect who has a chance to grow into a real impact player at the next level. He is a dangerous deep threat who attacks the ball in the air incredibly well and also shows some run-after-catch upside.

Imatorbhebhe is a bit of a raw player who is unlikely to make a massive immediate impact, but his long-term upside is absolutely massive. Sticking him in Andy Reid’s offense catching passes from Patrick Mahomes would undoubtedly be a great situation for this high ceiling wide receiver prospect.

Round 7, 252nd overall

Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. Ole Miss. Royce Newman. 841. OL. 7. player

With their final pick of this 2021 NFL mock draft, the Kansas City Chiefs make another solid depth addition to their offensive line mix. Royce Newman moves well for an offensive lineman and is a tough and physical player who is always working hard.

Newman played both tackle and guard in college and his game translates well to either position at the next level. He is a solid player whose position versatility would help him become a much-needed quality depth player for the Chiefs.
