They have another writer (Charlie Campbell) who does his mock draft as well. Here's his...
25. Mike Williams, WR, Clemson
The Chiefs could have drafted a receiver early in the 2016 NFL Draft. Many believe they were targeting Laquon Treadwell with their first-round pick. Here's a receiver to trio with Jeremy Maclin and Chris Conley.
In 2016, Williams has 39 receptions for 578 yards and four touchdowns. He had an impressive return to college football against Auburn as he totaled nine receptions for 174 yards and was unstoppable on the sideline back-shoulder plays. Williams did show some rust with a fumble and a dropped touchdown pass.
In the 2015 season opener, Williams fractured his neck when he ran into the goalpost while catching a touchdown. That ended his year. Williams had the potential to be the top wide receiver prospect in the 2016 NFL Draft as the 6-foot-3, 205-pounder has a real combination of size and speed.
With Sammy Watkins in the NFL, Williams took over as Clemson's lead receiver in 2014 and caught 57 passes for 1,030 yards and six touchdowns. In his freshman season, he had 20 catches for 316 yards and three scores.
58. Raekwon McMillan, LB, Ohio State
The Chiefs could use a young linebacker to pair with Derrick Johnson and eventually take over as the leader of their defense when Johnson is done.
In 2016, McMillan has been solid for Ohio State with 42 tackles, 2.5 for a loss, two passes broken up and one forced fumble. The 6-foot-2, 240-pounder played well in 2015, totaling 119 tackles with 1.5 sacks and four passes broken up on the year. As a freshman in 2014, he played a lot for Ohio State and totaled 54 tackles with 2.5 sacks and a pick-six.
McMillan is a tough defender who has the skill set to be a three-down starter in the NFL. However right now, he struggles in pass coverage and needs to improve his ability to drop into coverage. McMillan is a physical, tough run defender at the point of attack.
