1. ILB - No DJ and not much to write home about otherwise. Mauga could be retained for 1 more year however.
2. QB - It's highly unlikely the Chiefs can/will retain Foles at his 2017 price tag and there is not a clear heir to Alex.
3. S/NT - I'm reserving this slot in the event either Berry or Poe is not retained. Also, Sorensen is an RFA so we'll see if he is also retained.
4. OLB - Tamba Hali is all but done, and I see him retiring. The Chiefs need to replace their #3 pass rusher, and we've all seen how important that has been the past 2 seasons.
5. OT - I can't fathom Jah Reid being retained, so KC will need a backup tackle. If Reid is retained, the Chiefs need a backup tackle.
6. WR - The Chiefs will have to add a guy here as depth I think. I doubt they retain Wilson for 1.7 mil.
7. RB - The Chiefs probably won't retain Jamaal Charles at his current price, nor should they at anything near it. If that's the case, I bet they are shopping for a 3rd running back.
8. OG - The Chiefs should draft someone to push for a starting job, but if not they should at least bring in someone to push Fulton for the backup job.
9. CB - Before Terrance Mitchell started playing well, I would have ranked this #1. Mitchell locking down the outside has also improved Steven Nelson by moving him to the slot. The Chiefs have a good looking stable in the current alignment, but could use another developmental long corner.
I do not view TE as a need, but if they take advantage of the class being strong then they need to look for a stronger blocker at the #2.
