Daniel Jeremiah· Apr 16, 2026
In his mock draft, Jeremiah had the Chiefs landing running back Jeremiah Love at No. 9 while the Jets traded up ahead of Kansas City to take Cornell Tate.
“The Chiefs can sit there and have Jeremiah Love dropped to him because no one else has taken him, until the Chiefs go, and the Jets are gonna hop up and take Cornell Tate in front of them.”
