What makes the 2020 NFL Draft unique?
Despite holding the No. 32 pick in the 2020 NFL draft, Brett Veach is excited about the upcoming class. This year, in particular, has a greater depth all around compared to the previous year according to Veach.
“I would say, having just finished watching my pre-combine tape, this is an extremely deep draft,” Veach explained. “Certain drafts are deeper than others at certain positions. I think as a whole, from position to position across the board [this draft is deep]. You and I were talking earlier BJ, that just in the first two rounds, we have 8-14 more players this year than in last year’s draft. We’re excited about that and we haven’t had a first-round pick in a few years, so having a first-round pick in a draft this deep will certainly be exciting for us.”
Consider that the Chiefs walked away with two studs in the second of the 2019 draft in WR Mecole Hardman and DB Juan Thornhill. It makes you a bit excited about the potential of a deeper draft class. It’ll give the Chiefs more options and increase the likelihood that they land an impact player.
