With all the turnover this past year, today we will take a look at stat projections for the key players on offense.
As you know it begins and ends with Patrick Mahomes. In four years as a starter, he averages a whopping 4,677 yards and 37.75 touchdowns. With the loss of Tyreek Hill, it is conceivable there is a slight drop off, but I do not see it. Official Prediction for Mahomes: 4500 yards, 35 touchdowns, and 9 INT.

The recent trade of Tyreek Hill has left the Chiefs in an interesting position entering the final stages of free agency and the start of the NFL draft. While the Chiefs did well to upgrade their second and third options at wide receiver with JuJu Smith-Schuster and MVS, having a top 10 wide receiver room is a must to be able to make it to the big game.

That means it is time for a three round mock draft that will show what the Chiefs may do with their first 6 picks.
