I like amphibians more than reptiles. But I guess that will do.

Would love to snag Cobee Bryant.

Pole has a touch of kelechi osemele in his game to me with the aggressiveness. I read he didn’t play FB until JC? That’s a plus on wear and tear. Good call

Him and Jared Ivey are still available.

Temple WR Dante Wright signs with KC

Seems like he could be a contributor someday.

Go Mules.

I listened to a lot of the games. Great passer and a good running QB too. Glad to see the Chiefs giving him a chance to at least get to Training Camp.

Might be a great developmental QB.

Chiefs Blitz says Esa Pole will beat out Wanya Morris and Ethan Driskell for a spot on the 53.

Veach loves Wazzu products.

Not a chance IMO.

I do think Badger and Briningstool have excellent shots of making the team, though.

I have personally seen you right about so many prospects, I’d take your opinion over any online “expert” anyday

Sounds like a supporting role in Roadhouse.

Thought he'd be bigger?

Well played.

He’s going to show up to camp in a 65 Buick Riviera with hide away stacked headlights you just watch

Just don’t let Roger catch him ripping any throats out we don’t need any suspensions

Read that in Sam Elliot’s voice like he’s giving a scouting report to veach on the guy

Cobee Bryant signing with falcons

Agree on Pole. If Wanya gets his knee right, he’s a serviceable piece. But it looks like Pole has some good pieces but is super raw.

Steele has competition.

I would have been happy if we had drafted this guy. Veach is a genius to get him without using a draft pick.

We should be rooting hard for Casey.

He can actually be a receiver like Anthony Sherman, and Steele is a worthless fumbling piece of shit.

One of the more bizarre Chief Fan favorites we’ve seen.

LOL. No way.

I root hard for the kid but he was a walk on at a shit program. I don’t think he has the tools to work. But effort is not his problem. He’s also a bit of a gamer, so maybe.

But I’d be shocked.

IF he finds a role (big if), it’s an Anthony Sherman type role.

Yeah but his name is Carson Steele, he has great hair and a pet alligator so…

Stop shitting on Carson he may have fumble but he a rookie rookie make mistakes

He throws with both hands? Sweet!

I know Steele technically never played FB in college, and we sort of kept him around to eventually become that for us.

But my God... the guy knows NOTHING about blocking. We're not taking a large RB who can block and making him a FB. We're taking a large RB who CAN'T block and making him a FB.

Unless he demonstrates that he learned and perfected that skill over the offseason, he can go back home and get eaten by his pet

Chiefs didn’t show interest?

BREAKING: The Falcons are signing former Kansas Jayhawk CB Cobee Bryant, per @Schultz_Report.

Bryant was one of the biggest draft snubs, going undrafted despite being viewed by many as a top corner in this class. In an exclusive pre-draft interview with Preme Sports, Bryant told us the Falcons showed major interest, along with the Chargers, Vikings, and 49ers.

Scouts had concerns about his weight, but Bryant confirmed he’s added 10 pounds since the offseason and now checks in at 184 lbs.

The resume speaks for itself:
▪️ 3x First-Team All-Big 12
▪️ 46 career starts
▪️ 2024: 4 INTs, 11 PBUs, 3.5 TFLs, 37 tackles

Atlanta just landed an absolute dog with a massive chip on his shoulder.

The Chiefs CB depth chart is pretty stacked right now… maybe he wanted a better opportunity to make a roster.

why did people think Bryant was probably a 2nd or 3rd round pick?

Would've been nice along with Jared Ivey, but some nice depth added at positions we were light. Still think the DL had room for targets but it was good to see a guy like Briningstool brought in at TE.

Really wish the piece of shit OP would have let Dante start this thread so the OP could be updated

He was only a fan favourite in preseason when he looked good. As soon as he started fumbling he was branded a useless piece of shit by us and hardly saw the field again.

On a related note, it still boils my piss that we had 3 years of Skyy Moore stinking up the place because he was a 2nd round pick. He should have got the Steele treatment regardless of whether he was a 2nd round pick, 6th round or UDFA.

Was hoping he'd get an invite or sign a UDFA deal with the Chiefs. I like his game. Like you mentioned, a little Kelce in his game.

It would be nice if there was an updated list in the OP.

No one is better than Dante. Universally considered by the vast majority on here to be the draft thread creator guru for CP.

Luke Grimm was the KU UDFA we should have signed..he’s a stud and he’s local. Will be surprised if he doesn’t stick for chargers.

Briningstool

LMAO

Those are eye popping numbers from an athletic standpoint. Curious why he is an UDFA, then.

Looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane possibly.

I would take him. Look what happened with Tyreek. His situation wasn’t much different.

Uhhhh...


so why was this guy available? Is he just dumb as a rock?

That 40 time kills it for me. :)

:clap:

He played 5 or 6 years at Pitt... he's a workout warrior.

Yeah, but WHY?

He should be a wrecker of worlds.

Someone said it earlier, sounds like Boomer Grigsby II… could help out on STs…a Toub pic? :hmmm:

From NFL…
https://www.nfl.com/prospects/brando...7-0d8d9aff6692


Overview
Inside linebacker who boasts a burly frame and outstanding pro-day testing numbers. George was a mainstay on special teams during his six-year career, spending only one season (2024) as a full-time starter. He’s inconsistent in making reads and fitting up the run properly, but he’s big and strong. He can leverage his gaps when he’s in position. He’s a build-up runner who lacks the necessary burst to patrol from sideline to sideline, and he’s a liability in coverage. George’s testing, measurables and special-teams experience might appeal to teams, but likely as an undrafted free agent.

Strengths
Throwback size with a broad, muscular chest and long arms.
Explosion testing at pro day was off the charts.
Plays very heavy behind his pads on contact with blocks.
Has the size and play strength to fill and constrict his gaps.
Played extensively on special teams.

Weaknesses
Started in only one of his six seasons at Pitt.
Lacks fluidity with his feet when operating in tight quarters.
Doesn’t always recognize proper positioning and run fits.
Below-average instincts and block take-on technique.
Gets lost and can be exploited in both zone and man coverages.

Holy shit. He must be really bad at football to be that athletic and not get drafted

We can fix him!

He'll do what it takes if he wants to get paid playing football. Got the physical tools and he's got all day every day to learn the playbook and practice if he has the WANT TO.

It always amazes me that college coaches can’t make something of some of these guys.
