Easily the winner of the Combine for defensive tackles was Pittsburgh's Aaron Donald as he posted the best times for the Bench, 40, Broad and 3 Cone drills.

Second place goes to Ra'shede Hageman of Minnesota, where he had the best vertical (a ridiculous 35.5" at 6'6", 310 lb.), second best Bench and Broad.

Hageman, with his size and length combine with his strength and leaping ability, would translate very nicely to a five tech 34 DE as utilized by the Chiefs.

OldSchool · 03-01-2014, 07:11 PM

Really wanted to see Tuitt work out, too bad he had a broken bone in his foot though.

I was more impressed with Zach Kerr than I was with Hageman. 5.08 40 at 326 pounds and a 28.5" vert. That's a lot of weight to move.

O.city · 03-01-2014, 07:30 PM

Quarles would be a great 4/5 round pick

RunKC · 03-01-2014, 10:08 PM

Quarles is said to be a possible 2nd round pick now.

Look out for Will Sutton. He has the same kind of game Aaron Donad does. Big difference is that ASU had him put on weight last year which took away from his speed. He's lost a lot of that weight and in return gained some his quickness back. We have met with this guy twice.

htismaqe · 03-03-2014, 08:42 AM

Yeah! Let's draft another 5T!

planetdoc · 03-30-2014, 12:54 PM

Here is my case for Louis Nix

The chiefs have depth at just about every position on the chiefs roster other than NT and possibly kicker/punter (though the team could pick someone up off the street easily).

-both Fisher and Stephenson can play LT
-Kush can backup Center, team has a number of players who can play guard
-team has depth at QB, RB, TE, and WR.
-team has a number of players at DE
-poor depth with Moses at OLB, some depth at ILB
-number of players who could rotate at DB
-number of players who can play kick/punt returner if need be.

If Poe is injured, who would play NT? Really cant see Vance Walker or Jay Howard filling that role. Bailey and Catapano are too small. Maybe its Cory Grissom or someone else that they bring in.

In either case, I think its critical that the team find a backup NT. It seems to be the 1 position that the team currently has 0 depth. Team cant expect Poe to play another 1000+ snaps injury free.

A good game to watch of Nix would be the 2013 BCS championship game against Alabama

He was a transfer from Maryland. 320+ pound man who was more athletic than the majority of this DT class excluding, of course, Aaron Donald. Brings up images of Vince Wilfork, IMO. Similar size and skillset. He offers pass rushing upside that Nix doesn't really have.

I know the reports say that about him, but I just watched Zach Kerr's 1 game video right after watching Nix against Alabama in the 2013 bcs, and I liked Nix better. nix was able to consistently walk his man back...and that is against NFL caliber offensive lineman.

I also wonder what Kerr's playing weight was. He weighed 334 at the east west shrine game and was invisible all week. I've seen articles that said his playing weight was 310. It also shows that the step up in competition (east west shrine game) is a legitimate concern.

Mike Pennel is a guy I hope the chiefs bring in as a UDFA. I dont care about his slow 40 time. I like the fact that he had a better vertical and broad jump than any of the fatties at the combine. That shows lower body strength and explosion. He has nice size. Also like this part:

Who was your favorite team and player in the NFL and why?

Kansas City Chiefs, I like Kris Jenkins and Deacon Jones. Love there style of “directed aggression”

here is a little video of him.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNb2ZZUO2Ps

his frame allows him to carry weight really well....though he needs a lot of technique work. good guy to stick on the PS.

Ra'shede Hageman Minnesota

Bench: 32
40: 5.02
Vertical: 35.5"
Broad: 9'6"
3 Cone: 7.87

Would be great next to Poe.

With all of those WRs in the draft, watch us take a 5T...

i agree.

O.city · 04-01-2014, 07:34 PM

I'm as big of a Hageman fan as anyone, but if Aaron Donald is there, he should be our pick. I know, I know, defensive lineman.

But thats a Geno Atkins type disruptor. Put him next to Poe and your pass rush starts looking a whole lot better, real fast.

He's a guy you take and fit your scheme to him. There's no way he'll be there when we pick, but damn.
