C Sedrick Van Pran, Georgia
What's a backup utility offensive lineman worth to you? Because the three starters the Chiefs have along the interior are going nowhere, and they've shown the ability to sub in at those spots at any moment with 7th rounders and UDFA. Is there any chance the Chiefs like someone at that spot so much they get him in the 4th round?
Because Sedrick Van Pran is the kind of lineman the Chiefs have long drafted in the midrounds and turned into multi-year viable starters under Andy Reid. He is a hyperactive, athletic zone blocking lineman with a nasty attitude and plenty of experience in Georgia's pro-style offense. In Georgia's scheme, he's frequently executing combo blocks and picking up blitzes and pulling out into space. These are all things that are built to excel in the Andy Reid scheme. He's a slam dunk.
But.... the position's filled, for at least two more years. But I don't think I'd mind if the Chiefs pulled the trigger in the 5th round if all the other major needs this team has haven't already been served some.
