The Kansas City Chiefs are predicted to add another receiver in next year's draft. Carnell Tate can have a breakout next season, which will boost his draft stock.

Notes: It’s probably not the most likely first overall pick in a PPR fantasy draft when you have Ja’Marr Chase coming off a triple crown victory, but I rolled with Jahmyr Gibbs. To me, he’s the best running back in football and will be in fantasy this season as well (RB2 in fantasy points per game last season).
