Chiefs Pick Offensive Lineman in Second Round of NFL Draft

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) – The Kansas City Chiefs attempted to shore up their porous offensive line by selecting Mitch Morse from nearby Missouri with their second-round pick in Friday night’s NFL draft.chiefs logo

The 6-foot-6, 305-pound Morse played center and guard for the Tigers before shifting to right tackle in 2013 and left tackle last year. He could play any of those positions for the Chiefs, who lost center Rodney Hudson to free agency and need help elsewhere on the line.

Kansas City also had needs at wide receiver and inside linebacker, but runs at both spots early in the second round left the Chiefs taking a local player.

The Chiefs picked cornerback Marcus Peters in the first round Thursday night. They also had two third-round picks later Friday night.
