# Kent Swanson: Ken says all six known Chiefs top-30 visitors will be drafted inside the top 100 picks, projects Dani Dennis-Sutton to go between picks 40 and 74 (closer to 40), and sees Davison Igbinosun as more of a pick-74 player than a pick-40 player. **Claimed:** Mar 26, 2026 **Pundit:** Kent Swanson — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/kent-swanson **Outlet:** KC Sports Network (podcast) — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/kc-sports-network-podcast **How it reached us:** said on air, transcribed by us **Original:** https://pdrl.fm/8d7cde/mgln.ai/e/256/pscrb.fm/rss/p/clrtpod.com/m/bluewire.simplecastaudio.com/8bf45406-115f-47da-8dc8-dcc5713f4a83/episodes/63f29ff2-d936-42e1-b889-4bc495ab3161/audio/128/default.mp3?aid=rss_feed&awCollectionId=8bf45406-115f-47da-8dc8-dcc5713f4a83&awEpisodeId=63f29ff2-d936-42e1-b889-4bc495ab3161&feed=BJf5DYgc 8 checkable claims — 8 mock draft picks — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 8 players and teams, each linked to their own record. 6 of 8 have settled so far, averaging 100 out of 100, against 50 for a naive guess at the same calls. > But there's six out there that we know, and all of these guys are going to be taken within the top 100 picks, I think. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Chris Johnson to be picked “within the top 100 picks” (picks 1–100)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Chris Johnson - Verdict: scored 100 out of 100, against 50 for a naive guess - **Oscar Delp to be picked “within the top 100 picks” (picks 1–100)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Oscar Delp - Verdict: scored 100 out of 100, against 50 for a naive guess - **Kadyn Proctor to be picked “within the top 100 picks” (picks 1–100)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Kadyn Proctor - Verdict: scored 100 out of 100, against 50 for a naive guess - **Makai Lemon to be picked “within the top 100 picks” (picks 1–100)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Makai Lemon - Verdict: scored 100 out of 100, against 50 for a naive guess - **Caleb Banks to be picked “within the top 100 picks” (picks 1–100)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Caleb Banks - Verdict: scored 100 out of 100, against 50 for a naive guess - **Carnell Tate to be picked “within the top 100 picks” (picks 1–100)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Carnell Tate - Verdict: scored 100 out of 100, against 50 for a naive guess - **B.J. to be picked “somewhere between forty and seventy four... probably closer to 40”** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: B.J. - Verdict: not settled yet - **Davison Igbinosun to be picked “more of a pick 74 than he is a pick 40”** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Davison Igbinosun - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Chris Johnson — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/chris-johnson - Oscar Delp — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/oscar-delp - Kadyn Proctor — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/kadyn-proctor - Makai Lemon — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/makai-lemon - Caleb Banks — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/caleb-banks - Carnell Tate — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/carnell-tate - B.J. — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/b-j - Davison Igbinosun — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/davison-igbinosun ## What others said about the same people - Lance Zierlein on Carnell Tate: Zuerlein describes their mock draft 3.0: Carnell Tate to the Giants at No. 5, Sonny Styles falling to the Cowboys at No. 12, and Colton Hood to Dallas at No. 20.

They call Kenyon Saddiq and Mansoor Delaine the safest picks for Dallas, and thinks Delaine's tape is top-four caliber, while Jeremiah Smith could be a generational, Megatron-type receiver. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/3f8e6478-8ee7-441e-b2d1-d0a10233c34a (scored 95.76) - Danny Parkins on Carnell Tate: Danny Parkins presented their one-and-only 2026 mock draft, including trades: Mendoza at 1 to the Raiders, David Bailey second to the Jets, the Cowboys trading up to No. 3 for Arvell Reese, the Bears trading up to 16 for Kadyn Proctor, and Ty Simpson going to Arizona at 32 at the end of round one. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/d98bca2f-5fc3-4f68-8389-30f9a2cb906f (scored 87.81) - Nick Wright on Kadyn Proctor: Nick Wright unveiled their full 32-pick 2026 NFL mock draft 4.0, starting with Fernando Mendoza to the Raiders at No. 1 and ending with Avion Terrell to the Seahawks at 32.
