Chiefs meet with Mike Evans,Marqise Lee at Combine
By Joel Thorman @JoelThorman on Feb 23 2014, 7:56a 264 http://www.arrowheadpride.com/2014/2...=articlebottom ![]() The Kansas City Chiefs will meet with two of the top receivers in the 2014 NFL Draft -- USC WR Marqise Lee and Texas A&M WR Mike Evans. Tweet (5) Share (253) Share 264 Comments Rec 2 Between the college all-star games (East-West Shrine game, Senior Bowl), the NFL Combine, pro days and pre-draft visits, the Kansas City Chiefs will meet with a lot of players before the 2014 NFL Draft. In fact, GM John Dorsey told reporters that they will interview about 75 percent of the rookies in this draft class. That said, I admit I was a little excited reading from the KC Star's Terez Paylor and Chiefs Spin's Herbie Teope that the Chiefs were meeting with two of the top receivers in this class. That would be USC's Marqise Lee and Texas A&M's Mike Evans. ========= Terez A. Paylor @TerezPaylor Follow Texas A&M receiver Mike Evans said the #Chiefs were the first team he met with yesterday. Said he talked to WR coach David Culley. ========== Herbie Teope @HerbieTeope Follow USC WR Marqise Lee said the #Chiefs are one of the teams he will meet with today. Also said has meetings with Jets, Lions. ========== Herbie Teope @HerbieTeope Follow USC WR Marqise Lee said the #Chiefs are one of the teams he will meet with today. Also said has meetings with Jets, Lions. Lee weighed in at 5'11 and 192 pounds while Evans was listed at 6'4 and 231 pounds. Without knowing a whole lot about each player's game, Lee seems like the more realistic option just knowing what I know about Andy Reid's history of receivers. He doesn't have the history of getting those 6'5 behemoth receivers who tower over everyone. He likes speed. Not that Mike Evans wouldn't work either ... the guy looked like an awesome player in college. As Dorsey said, the Chiefs interview a lot of players but I do find these two especially interesting. Lee has been mocked the Chiefs regularly since the season ended. AP reader Bsrkr posted about Lee here. Evans is the No. 7 overall player on the Mocking The Draft top 200 big board while Lee is No. 12. Read the Evans scouting report here and the Lee scouting report here. |

Not only that, we have the first pick the year after the qb, then no second rounder in the deepest draft in the last 10 years.

We had a crap load of picks in the 2008 draft, which was a pretty good class. Dorsey is just going to have to basically not miss on the first two picks, and maybe even the first three picks. If he misses, that's not good news because there's a ton of talent in the class.

Guys like us hear about interviews with players and think we might be interested in drafting them by moving up/down. GM's are already building files for future free agents/released guys. Never stop compiling data.

plz no more little dude receivers... especially when there are a bunch of guys above 6'1 who can run a 4.3-4.4 in this draft even in the later rounds..
Alex's track record has always been with bigger receivers.. Vernon Davis 6'3, Antonio Bryant 6'2, Michael Crabtree 6'1.. |

Again, my issue is that we can get 1 of 10-15 players who would end up being good/great slot guys in this draft. There are only a few realistic potential #1 wrs in this draft. The rest are 2s and slot guys. Cooks falls in the slot category.

If he can stay healthy I'd take him. If Lee wasn't injured last season then he'd be a surefire top 10 prospect
