NFL player comparisons for top Chiefs prospects in 2020 NFL Draft

A look at NFL player comparisons for some top 2020 NFL Draft prospects for the Chiefs.

LSU LB Patrick Queen — Redskins LB Thomas Davis Sr.

Both of these players are safety-sized linebacker and Davis Sr. even played safety at Georgia in college. Davis Sr. excelled at the seek-and-destroy linebacker role when he entered the league and that’s where Queen also projects at the next level. I don’t know that Queen will ever be as physical as Davis Sr. is, but I think he might be more explosive.

Queen will be lucky to have the staying power that Davis Sr. has seen during his career. 2020 will be his 16th season and he still has something left in the tank. If Queen’s coverage ability is anything like Davis Sr., maybe he will have that same type of staying power.

The Chiefs definitely have a need for a linebacker with coverage ability and Queen appears to be that guy at the next level.
