One round of the NFL Draft, six to go, and if the rest are like the first for the Chiefs they’ll feel good when the draft wraps up Saturday.
Two first-round spots produced Washington cornerback Trent McDuffie at No. 21 and Purdue rush end George Karlaftis at No. 30. Both met positions of need and were players not believed to be available based on pre-draft speculation.
