Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes didn’t waste time taking to Twitter after the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders selected Texas Tech edge rusher Tyree Wilson seventh overall in the 2023 NFL Draft.
“Take it easy on me big dawg!! @tyreewilson77 congrats tho!!” the superstar QB wrote.

“Patrick is a stand up guy, not hating on the new #Raiders edge rusher who’s going to sack him multiple times next season,” one Twitter user wrote.
“Oh there will be exactly NONE of this noise…He comin….watch your back,” another user wrote.
“The late great AL Davis once said ‘The quarterback must fall hard,'” another user wrote.

Chiefs Also Select Edge Rusher in 1st Round
Similar to the Raiders, the Chiefs also selected an edge rusher in the first round of the draft. With the 31st overall pick, Kansas City selected Kansas State defensive end, Felix Anudike-Uzomah.
When Day 2 of the draft begins on April 28 at 7 p.m. Eastern Time, the defending Super Bowl champions will have nine draft picks remaining. The team’s first selection on Day 2 will come at pick 62 in the second round. From there, they have one selection in the third round (95), two in the fourth round (122, 134), one in the fifth round (166), two in the sixth round (178, 217), and two in the seventh round (249, 250).
The top remaining needs for the Chiefs that they might look to address over the final two days of the draft, in no particular order, are wide receiver, offensive tackle, running back, and defensive tackle.
