The Kansas City Chiefs' 2021-22 season came to a disappointing end with the AFC Championship Game loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, so now it's time to dive into the offseason. It will be a busy one, with decisions to be made regarding Tyrann Mathieu, Frank Clark, Orlando Brown Jr., Jarran Reed, Melvin Ingram, Charvarius Ward and several others, so the Chiefs must handle this offseason wisely. It will be one of the most important in recent memory. Before we start the mock draft, we have to make a few decisions on the Chiefs' behalf. My primary pre-draft decisions are for the Chiefs to re-sign Mathieu, Brown, Ingram, Ward, Byron Pringle, Jerick McKinnon, Derrick Nnadi and Jody Fortson, then to release Clark and Anthony Hitchens. Let's also make a splash at wide receiver. Odell Beckham Jr. and JuJu Smith-Schuster have both been rumored to have connections with the Chiefs, with Smith-Schuster being the more likely of the two to land in KC. Add in a restructuring of Patrick Mahomes's contract and the Chiefs should have enough cap space to make all of these moves work.
