The Kansas City Chiefs have started to meet with this year’s draft prospects at the 2020 NFL Scouting Combine.
Informally, the coaching staff and front office are allowed to meet with as many of the 337 prospects as they want. These are usually quick 15-minute conversations with a scout or position coach.
Formally, teams are only permitted to interview a total of 45 prospects. These interviews are much more structured and a sitdown meeting with multiple members of the organization. Keep in mind that with the new combine schedule implemented this year, many players won’t take formal interviews with teams until after the media interviews.
If the last two seasons are any indication, a lot of the players that get formal meetings with Kansas City could end up on the roster. Six players the Chiefs met with formally at the combine ended up drafted by the team, with three in 2018 and another three in 2019.
