1. ESPN's Mel Kiper has Chiefs taking Dorial Green-Beckham in first round

By Terez Paylor - The Kansas City Star

"ESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr. released his first mock draft of the year on Thursday, and he has the Chiefs selecting a familiar name in a wide receiver-heavy first round.

2. Plays that defined the season: Cairo Santos' winning FG in San Diego

By Adam Teicher - ESPN.com

"Here is the third in a series of 10 plays that shaped the Kansas City Chiefs' 2014 season. We're going in chronological order, not in order of importance.

A red-zone machine, quick enough and strong enough to hold the position on slants and powerful and tall enough to go up and win just about every jump ball imaginable on a fade in the corner."    READ MORE…

4. Chiefs' Eric Fisher heads toward a career-defining offseason

By Terez Paylor - The Kansas City Star

"As his teammates joked around him, Eric Fisher spoke quietly at his locker, reflecting on the past 12 months.

This was Dec. 29, in the immediate aftermath of the Chiefs' season-ending 19-7 win over the San Diego Chargers, and while Fisher, the second-year left tackle, wasn't thrilled — he had hoped for a playoff berth — there was definitely a subtle sense of satisfaction and relief in his voice."    READ MORE…

"The Kansas City Chiefs will continue to spend training camp on the campus of Missouri Western after the school's board of governors approved a three-year contract extension Thursday.

The decision will keep the Chiefs heading north of Kansas City through at least 2017. The agreement includes two extensions of one-year each at the option of the Chiefs and the school."    READ MORE…
