Hello and welcome to your Thursday edition of the Arrowhead Drive.

I'm Steven Serda and it's another prospect edition where we highlight some interesting

players in the upcoming NFL draft, but the Kansas City Chief should definitely show some

interest in and the AP draft team has been working so hard all drafts in highlighting

some of these incredible players.

So for today, Thursday, April 13th, we'll be taking a look at the defensive line.

Malthus is in the ballgame now and till back to the right of DJ, he'll fake it, pump

fake, wants to go down the field and he's hit, pick it, stick him to the turf on a sack.

South Carolina's Zach Pickens has all the fields of a Brent Veech guy, according to Nate

Christiansen's player profile.

Going into the 2023 NFL draft, the Kansas City Chiefs have a massive hold, both figuratively

and literally a defensive tackle.

With Colin Saunders leaving in free agency and Brandon Williams still a free agent, the

Chiefs don't have a lot of depth at the position.

They did resign nose tackle Derrick Naughty, but we know his snaps have been going down

over the past couple of years.

Pickens has every trait you want from a defensive tackle in the NFL.

The first thing that stands out is a run defender is his length.

He's not as big as most nose tackles, but he's a good point of attack defender.

He utilizes his length well, keeping his chest clean and knocking blockers backwards.

Having zone it, Pickens is a challenge where he can get full extension and use his leg

drive to leave guards stumbling back.
