Rookies were awesome today
Boy did Burt Veach’s draft class stand out today. This was pretty much the “Chiefs rookie highlight reel” day.
Clyde-9 yards short of 100 total yards but was nice. That play where he broke 3 tackles was sweet. Gay-he didn’t have a highlight per se but he did a lot of the dirty work. 1 tackle was coming across the field like a bullett to get a stop that would have been a big gainer if not for him. Snead-Dude had good coverage in the slot against. He lead the team in tackles, which seems bad but he came up and made some nice tackles. Danna-Holy shit. A sack, QB hit and 3 TFL’s. My God. Wharton-sack, QB hit and a TFL. He was in Tua’s face a handful of times but didn’t get a stat bc Tua ran or threw it away. Townsend-1 punt inside the 20, a really good 51 yard punt and a 58 yard bomb. That 58 yard beauty was the longest punt I can remember since Colquitt had one I believe 4 years ago? Unbelievable job by our staff this year. This draft class looks special. |

And you have to think Niang will significantly help our RT situation next year if Schwartz can’t come back healthy.

Yes. Excellent production by our rookies today. However, can we really called the udfa rookies part of the draft class? Don't get me wrong. I'm thrilled that we have gotten so much from udfa's.

I fail to see how selectively signing someone is different than drafting them. Hell It seems to me that they've got more stake in how the Chiefs perform since they were recruited and signed in KC.

^This^ UDFA require more work than drafting someone. You compete for the talent with a plan and dollars, and you must hit on a few of these each year to help manage the cap...

What an amazing time to be a fan of this team.
Best ever QB All time great WR All time great TE All time great head coach One of the best owners in all of sports that isn’t afraid of signing huge checks to support the team The best GM in the league to continue to bolster the roster with amazing deal after amazing deal and a true eye for talent in the draft. High quality vets want to come here and play for almost nothing. The law of averages is paying off...big time. |

Yeah...Danna and Wharton are what make this class stand out for me. Never saw their type of play coming. Veach seems to be getting better at this. Should frighten the rest of the league.

They've been impressive.
I think Sneed appears to have the highest ceiling of the draft class, too. It'll be interesting to see how it all shakes out. |

Can we start Sneed from here on out and get Ward off the field? Sneed, Breeland, and Fenton look like the best combo of CB's at this point.

You can ever have too many good CBs. They've got their warts, but I feel like all of the guys are playing well in the scheme.
And the best part is, we've still got Baker waiting in the wings. |

Yeah, Danna was the guy I thought could be a sleeper to make some noise in the Spags scheme in the off-season. Then out of nowhere...boom!
Great late pick. |

CB and DL are usually positions where you have to invest early (1-3) in the draft, or spend a shit ton in FA to get quality players.
The freedom that Wharton, Danna, Fenton & Sneed (and possibly Baker) are going to give us is under the radar as one of the best things we have going for us as we look 3 years down the road. We are able to look elsewhere in the draft, and while these guys are on their cheap contracts, we are able to spend to retain our stars and pursue FA's. If we can continue this hit rate in the draft, we aren't going anywhere for a while.
