Draft expert says KC Chiefs' 2026 UDFA class is among favorites in NFL

•Yahoo Sports

See what Chiefs Wire's resident NFL draft expert Sam Teets had to say about Kansas City's outstanding class of talented UDFAs.

Kansas City Chiefs general manager Brett Veach saved some of his best work of the offseason for the days after the 2026 NFL Draft. After assembling an elite crop of talent during the Annual Player Selection Meeting last week, Veach worked the phones to negotiate contracts with valuable prospects who didn't hear their names called during the draft. Chiefs Wire's resident draftnik, Sam Teets, was bullish on Kansas City's class of undrafted free agents, listing the Chiefs' latest class of UDFA pickups to his list of favorites in the days after the draft ended.
