Chiefs' Peter Woods: Picked by Kansas City

The Chiefs selected Woods in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 29th overall.

Analysis:

Woods (6-foot-3, 298 pounds) was a huge recruit for Clemson and provided quality play as a three-year starter, but it's difficult to find evidence of production and his ostensible utility as a two-gap run stuffer might not translate easily to the NFL given his light build, short arms and poor athletic testing. If Woods makes a positive impact with Kansas City it evidently might not show up in the box score, so he'll need to eat blocks.
