With their first draft pick on Day Three of the 2024 NFL Draft, the KC Chiefs add TCU TE Jared Wiley as depth and long-term upside to the tight end room.
The Kansas City Chiefs made two picks through the first two days of the 2024 NFL Draft, setting the stage for a big-time Day Three performance. Armed with five picks, general manager Brett Veach and company had quite a bit of capital to work with.
In five collegiate seasons, Wiley hauled in 90 passes for 1,013 yards and 15 touchdowns. His biggest season came as a senior this past year with TCU, when he registered 47 receptions for 520 yards and eight scores. Wiley boosted his stock with a nice 2023 performance, in addition to a stellar pre-draft process.In the immediate aftermath of the Wiley pick, Joshua Brisco ofprovided his initial thoughts on the decision and what it could mean for the tight end room.
"The Chiefs have done their homework on the tight end position," Eisen began."It makes sense, as Travis Kelce isn’t getting any younger. No one is going to replace Kelce, but getting a younger talent in the room would be wise. Wiley is a physically imposing athlete on the field. His movement ability as a receiver is unique. If he can improve his blocking, Wiley could become a long-term starter.
