The Kansas City Chiefs have to get an impact pass rusher in the first round, no matter what.

From the land of the free and the home of the Chiefs, this is the Locked-on Chiefs podcast.

You are Locked-on Chiefs, your daily Kansas City Chiefs podcast, part of the Locked-on Podcasts network,

your team every day.

Welcome back, Chiefs, Kingdom. Thanks for joining us today.

We are looking at exactly what the Chiefs need to do to get their next generation of

pass rushers on this roster and into this team, into the locker room and out of the field,

because that is job

number one that they have to have. And it couldn't be more clear as time goes on that the chiefs

agree with me. And I'm going to tell you exactly why, because it's super important. I appreciate

you guys being here. Make sure that you get in in the everyday air club and we appreciate that very much. And,

you know, thanks for making this your first listen as well. But the bottom line is that the

chiefs have to have it. They've done a number of other things. And clearly their plan

reflects what I'm talking about right this second in that they've gone out and they've

shored some things up. they've made some acquisitions

in particular and the latest rounds really tell you that they are trying to make sure as they should

that they can clear the way to do what they need to do in the draft and these moves clearly

show you that by going out and trading for Justin Fields.

They've decided that not only is the top of this draft, not great at the quarterback,

which they don't luckily have to worry about, but they also feel that maybe it's not worth

it down at the bottom of the draft either, where I thought a late round flyer

would be possible going into this.
