The Kansas City Chiefs are on the verge of the 2026 NFL Draft, with GM Brett Veach having a plan in place. Analyst Charles Goldman answers fan questions about the team's draft strategy. The Chiefs have nine picks and are likely to trade up to grab a top player, potentially a defensive difference-maker or a wide receiver. Goldman suggests that trading up from pick No. 29 is more likely than from No. 9, but Veach may prefer to move up from No. 9 to grab a player they're excited about. Potential targets include Ohio State's Arvell Reese or Texas Tech's David Bailey. If the Chiefs trade down, pick No. 40 is a good spot, with a pocket of talented players available.
