Chiefs select TCU OT Lucas Niang at pick No. 96

The pick is in for the Kansas City Chiefs!

With the 96th pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, the Kansas City Chiefs select TCU OT Lucas Niang

Niang has started 27 games at tackle for the TCU Horned Frogs while playing in a total of 44.

Here’s a look at what NFL.com analyst Lance Zierlein had to say about Niang:

Dancing bear with good agility and a great football IQ. He doesn’t carry his weight proportionally and looked heavier/slower in 2019, but he clearly has NFL starting talent. Niang is a scheme-diverse run blocker with athleticism for move blocks and technique/leverage to open running lanes with power. He plays with top-notch awareness and instincts in pass pro, but he’s an early opener in his pass sets and I’m not completely sold he can meet edge burners at the top of the rush on a consistent basis. The medicals need to check out on the hip, but he’s a help-now right tackle prospect who should be a long-time starter.
