Chiefs UDFA's.
 

One clean thread with all of the rumors about undrafted signees.

Albert Wilson WR Georgia State
James Baker RB Idaho
Cairo Santos K Tulane
Cole Pensick C Nebraska
Will Latu OL Abilene Christian
Charcandrick West RB Abilene Christian
David Van Dyke DB Tenn State
Ben Gottschalk OT SMU
Darryl Surgent WR La-Lafayette
Daniel Sorenson S BYU
Kacy Rogers S Miami
Ben Johnson LB Tennessee-Martin
Joey Demartino RB Utah State
Kenny Carter DE Auburn
Kona Schwenke DL Notre Dame
Marcus Heit LS Kansas St
Shawn Shuperd DL Eastern Kentucky (Tryout)

Man, I can't get over the Sorenson pickup. I just think that's a good get.

Given the lack of talent at the position, I'm surprised most of the top rookie FA's weren't ringing the phones off the wall for an opportunity. At least one undrafted prospect will make the final 53, and 1-2 more on the practice squad.

Sorenson is gonna make the roster. He's a solid special teamer too.

I don't see Schwenke making the 53.....just doesn't have the overall talent.

With the drafting of Thomas, plus the UDFA's, Chiefs have a big menu to pick from for the KO/punt returners! Competition should be great!

So many names in UDFA this year, and we land ONE of them.

God. This is why the Chiefs can't win shit. They get next to nothing in UDFA.

:thumb:

His career was weird. ND literally wasted his redshirt absurdly and then he had some bad luck with injuries (and having Nix ahead of you does not help). This year i was impressed with him. He dominated the Navy game (even with a lot of pain in his ankle) and played very well against ASU too (you can see his cutup against ASU on youtube, very impressive). A heck of a player in my opinion..

Dont understand how they look at Joe Mays next to DJ and not get Christian Jones in FA.

Dorsey is just going to scout teams like the Seahawks and 49ers during the preseason and work his magic again

I don't know, I think the Bears are a pretty good landing spot too.

hmmm where do I want to live, Chicago or KC, hmmmm

Unfortunately, as opposed to last year, we won't have the ability to take them all.

I agree with all the receivers taken the Chiefs will get a Veteran after the roster cuts

Where did he go to?

Jags.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if a guy is cut loose during TC then I think he has to go through the waiver process...

And we're quite a bit lower on the waiver priority than we were last year.

Depends on how many years he has been in the league.

I believe it's the players with 3 years or less in the league that have to go through the waiver process, but am not certain.

I thought it was 4 years milky?

Could be, which is the reason I say I'm not certain.

I was pretty disappointed, too.

We did a FAR better job in UDFA last year than this year.

so much for Chiefzilla's offseason plan of scraping by the UDFAs and waiver pick ups

But we do hit the motherlode the day after all teams cut down to 53!!

So, are any of these guys worth a shit?

I think so.

If I'm a decent WR, I'm going to sign with a team where I'll have an opportunity to make an impact.

I think we are a great destination for vets.

And I can't wait til next year, when Jordy comes home!

Christian Jones signed with the Bears.

Cairo ****ing Santos?

That names just too cool not to make it.

Wilson looks like he's got the best chance to make it out of the UDFA's. ;)

Barring any vet signings that is.

That's the dude I wanted them to grab, but this place has to be a bit of a hard sell for linebackers at this point. He may have a shot to start in Chicago, even as a UDFA. At least I think the MLB position's a bit in flux there, even after re-signing DJ Williams.

I'm calling this now, they just found their future starter in the UDFA market with C jones.

I will not be surprised to see us grab a WR or two that gets the boot after all these WRs were drafted.

Albert Wilson: Great drive and the pure athletic ability to make it at least as a special teamer in his first year. He can be a #4 deep threat as a rookie with 4.3-4.4 wheels. Very similar player to Bruce Ellington in this draft and TY Hilton/Cobb in terms of measurables and playing style. Shot to make it because we have a pretty weak WR core with Bowe, Avery, and Jenkins being the only locks to make the team.

Daniel Sorensen: Great size and measurables for a safety, smart kid. He has great acceleration but only ok speed overall. We need a 4th safety and he has as good a shot to make it as any.

personally I would hate to live in CHI.

great vaca spot if you like big cities, lots to do.

But I couldn't live there.

If I were a UDFA I would do my best to go play at a place where there is very little to no income tax. Miami, Tampa, Jacksonville, and Dallas are all places where you can likely go and have a real shot at making the roster. Other options are Houston and Seattle but it'll be tougher to make those rosters than the others that I mentioned before.

Same here, KC is a much more "manageable" city... the sprawl of a town like Chicago just turns me off.

I prefer the smaller cities like KC, St, Louis etc.

If i remember correctly. ..they drafted Jon Bostic last year as well.

WR-Albert Wilson
S-Daniel Sorenson
DL-Kona Schwenke
C-Cole Pensick

They've supposedly moved him out to the strong side spot. I don't know how much Williams has left in the tank, which is why I'm thinking it's a good spot for Jones to land.

Is there a list of all of the UDFA signings?

Sorensen and Wilson have as much of a shot to make this team as any of the draft picks, maybe more so as they are at positions that represent the weakest spots on the roster outside of the offensive line.

As OldSchool said, Sorensen has tremendous turn and burst capabilities which translates well to what a safety does/covers. He has really quick feet, nails his cuts/plants, and has fluid hips. He's smart, instinctive and fundamentally sound. He's already an upgrade to the dog shit we had on the field last year in Lewis and Robinson. He ran a 4.54 on his Pro Day and upgraded his broad jump by 10". I would have been happy with him as our 5th or 6th round pick.

Wilson looks to have as much in the way of measurables and production as a lot of guys taken in the draft. (Just another one of those dudes who was running a 4.4 something with a 37"+ vertical in this draft.) Very good returner as well. Thick, compact frame. Looks to have good field awareness. Guys wanting a Josh Huff, Bruce Ellington, Robert Herron type player should be happy.

Where are you seeing that?

ALWAYS found Tabitha Sorenson incredibly hot, sign her up and lets roll.

Call me crazy, but when I look at sorensen, I see a coverage linebacker, not a safety, and he'd have to beat out a lot of much better safeties to get a spot here.

You're crazy.

If they can help Davis develop as a receiver, he could be something.
His combination of size and speed is very impressive.
You aren't going to catch him from behind often. He's got a great second gear.

Shit, Sorensen is white?

I change my mind. Dude is camp fodder.

Saw it on the Chief Concerns facebook page

He's gonna make the team. Great special teams player.

I didn't trust Jon McGraw.

I didn't trust Sabby Piscatelli.

I'm not about to trust Daniel Sorensen.

LMAO Isn't Eric Weddle white?

So was Jason Seahorn.

The Yosemite supervolcano isn't due for an explosion for another 100,000 years or so, and the same goes for the next great white defensive back after Weddle

I'm just saying, you put 30lbs on him, and he's a linebacker, not a safety, guys lack of speed and explosion put him at a borderline linebacker anyways.

John Lynch? Every generation a new one needs to be born. Why not Sorensen? Lol.

Look at him. You're not putting 30 pounds on him.

Furthermore, he's an ace gunner and is always around the ball in kick coverage. You try to beef him up and you neutralize the biggest thing he brings to the team.

They don't need him to play safety but every team needs guys that can knock the shit out of returners.

You keep on the hunt for that white safety of yours, Captain Ahab. I'll be on dry land working with the real talent.

Lol. I'm not expecting much from any of these UDFAs. It's just that Sorensen and Wilson are, from what I see, the two best that we managed to bring in.

Just hoping for the best.

I can appreciate that. You're being honest and true to what you see.

I just think white men can't jump, that's all. And most of the time I'm right.

And those guys would be who on the roster exactly?

I mean, those "much better safeties."

You don't **** with sorensons ace gunner ability. Period. We didn't have a specialty ace gunner after we picked up that garbage pile Marcus cooper. And look where it got us first round playoff loss. **** you john Dorsey .

It says on several draft sites that Marcus Davis ran a 4.47 at the combine and 4.44 at his pro day?

He's 6'3" and did it at 233 pounds. 39 1/2" vertical.

Are they just getting that off of the unofficial numbers?

This is from rotoworld:

He's one of Dorsey's long shots I guess.

I think he's going to be my Bobby Sippio this year.

Too bad his knock is that he gives 0 effort in run blocking and is overall just not a hard worker. Dez Bryant upside but sounds like Ryan Leaf mentality.

zero risk, high reward.

Hope he shapes up.

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2...-path-to-draft

This kid was invited to a try out. Project but has Kam Chancellor size if they try him at SS. Potentially an athlete to groom behind DJ at WILB.

http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings...2014&genpos=SS

Not Telvin Smith. But potentially could fill the same role for those of us that wanted to draft smith. Nickel LB/Special teams and see if he can fit at SS or ILB long term

Long shot at the ILB position, IMO. Too slow to play SS but fast, physical, and big enough for ILb.

He's a slower Taylor mays. Gonna have to bust ass on special teams. Taxi squad prospect that's a good athlete. I like the idea even though he's not a high end prospect I like looking at adding that type to this d

Mays seems to be the opposite of that kid. Big, fast as hell, hits like a mack truck, but can't play football worth a shit for all that physical abilities that he had. This kid at least seems like he has some natural football abilities if not for the lack of speed. Any links to extended videos of him? I'd like to see if he plays faster than he timed.

I haven't looked at YouTube yet.

All you who think you know something about any of these guys crack me up...Most know close to nothing, get your info from some scouting report, come here with a take, and argue with those who have a different one...LMAO

Should watch Poe's Memphis stuff. Deron Furr is number 14 on that team. I think he must have caught the eyes of our scouts when they checked out Poe. He does stand out from what I've seen. All I have to go off of right now is highlights so of course he's going to look good, but you can tell certain things.

He's definitely not a safety from the little I've seen. Punishing LB type with how he throws his body around.

What NFL.com had to say about him.
It's pretty much what you can see off of what's available on youtube. Most, if not all, of it is of his time at Memphis. He played there when Poe was on the team in 2010.

I was hoping KC would pick up James Sims but it looks like GB picked him up.

you just made a great addition to the thread
