NFL Combine: Will Chiefs go for Bryant?

The Chiefs are expected to take an offensive tackle at No. 5 overall in the NFL Draft, which means Oklahoma State’s Russell Okung is in play. But Kansas City could be tempted to take a wide receiver, which brings OSU’s Dez Bryant into the picture.

“The wide receiver position, we have to be better,” said Chiefs coach Todd Haley. “If you could go through our season, dropped balls were a major issue.

“That’s an area we have to improve. We led the league in drops. When you have that amount of drops, it has an affect on everybody, but it has a direct effect on the quarterback.”

Matt Cassell, signed a year ago away from New England, actually is a Kansas City strength. A young quarterback who played reasonably well. Of course, protecting that asset is important, too.

“When you win four games, you have needs in a lot of areas,” Haley said. “We just want to add good football players.”
