Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs could have their own Saquon Barkley as they are seeking revenge in the NFL

The Kansas City Chiefs will enter the next season with a thirst for revenge after losing the last Super Bowl to the Philadelphia Eagles, and selecting wisely could be key for Andy Reid‘s team. We understand that there are immediate needs, although it wouldn’t hurt to give more firepower to the offense led by Patrick Mahomes.

One of the weak points, which was in fact exposed in Super Bowl LIX, was the offensive line. One of the main objectives is to protect Patrick Mahomes, but what if the Chiefs go in another direction and surprise everyone?

The Kansas City Chiefs could look for their own Saquon Barkley

The Chiefs will have the opportunity to maneuver with their eight available draft picks, and in one of the scenarios proposed by Sports Illustrated, there is the possibility that they select one of the best running backs in this class.

Compared on several occasions to Saquon Barkley, there’s Omarion Hampton from North Carolina, a super explosive player who could be available to hear his name and bolster a department that, in reality, left much to be desired last season.

It’s almost certain that TreVyon Henderson will be selected earlier, but Hampton is a very good option who would help rack up yards in bunches, as they say, he could become the Kareem Hunt version of the 2017 Kansas City Chiefs (1,782 yards through the air and on the ground, and 11 touchdowns).

During the last campaign, they lost Isiah Pacheco, and when he returned, he wasn’t the same runner who dazzled in his early years (although he never surpassed 1,000 yards), or at least fulfilling his role to provide alternatives to Mahomes’ offense.

Well, Omarion Hampton is a good option to have a kind of Saquon Barkley, although it’s hard to find a running back of this quality, not to say it’s practically impossible.

The Kansas City Chiefs’ Picks:

  • Round 1: 31st
  • Round 2: 63rd
  • Round 3: 66th, 95th
  • Round 4: 133rd
  • Round 7: 226th, 251st, 257th

The NFL is looking for the new Rob Gronkowski or Travis Kelce, and there’s a special prospect in the Draft

2025 LIV Golf Mexico City odds, predictions, free betting picks: Cameron Smith among longshots to back

Getty Images The LIV Golf circuit is back in action from Mexico City beginning on Friday at 3:15 p.m. ET as Club de Golf Chapultepec hosts the 54 competitors this week for three days of play. This is the first time Mexico City has hosted LIV as previous events south of the border have been held in Mayakoba. The golf course plays as a par 71 at 7,385 yards, but considering Mexico City is nearly 1.4 miles above sea level, the course should play considerably shorter for these pros. LIV enters this week with more momentum after Patrick Reed (3rd), Bryson DeChambeau (T5), Tyrrell Hatton (T14), and Jon Rahm (T14) all notched quality finishes at the Masters. Rahm is the betting favorite this week per DraftKings Sportsbook at +500 odds, followed by DeChambeau (+700), Joaquin Niemann (+900), and Hatton (+1000).

2025 NFL Draft: Shedeur Sanders landing spots, will Aaron Rodgers sign and the biggest remaining questions

Getty Images A year ago, it was not difficult to manufacture storylines. There was a record six quarterbacks taken in the first round and the first defensive player was not selected until No. 15 overall. Zero running backs were taken in the first round.Fast forward a year and many, but not all, questions were answered Thursday night. Looking ahead to Friday, there are still multiple storylines to monitor, including when and where Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders will come off the board. Here are the questions that remain unanswered on Day 2 of the 2025 NFL Draft: Where will NFL legacies land? Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders has dominated headlines throughout this process and, unfortunately for him, that will continue for another night.

Lawrence has ‘no excuses’ after Jags go big at NFL Draft

Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville Jaguars have no more excuses for not competing among the NFL's best after trading up to draft two-way sensation Travis Hunter, believes Sky Sports' Phoebe Schecter. The Jags produced one of the biggest moves of the night on Thursday as they traded up from No 5 with the Cleveland Browns to select the Heisman Trophy-winning wide receiver and cornerback with the second overall pick. Hunter has been touted as the next generational face of the NFL as he seeks to do what no player has done in 60 years by playing two positions on a full-time basis.He joins up with a Jacksonville team led by quarterback Trevor Lawrence, who will now have both Hunter and last year's first-round pick Brian Thomas Jr at his disposal.
