The link is to a podcast with Greg Cosell (former scout, now a writer for nfl.com). He gives his opinion on the AFC West draft, team-by-team.
For KC he said:
1. Poe - depends on which school of thought you come from; production or ability. Moves extremely well for a man his size. He doesn't view him as a 2 gap NT. He thinks he fits better as a 1 gap, but he doesn't want to question Romeo.
2. Allen -"really, really, really, good player." Played left and right, can play tackle or guard. Very solid and powerful. Can be a 10 year starter. Good at everything.
3. Stephenson - needs a lot of help with technique. Could fit in KC because he can sit behind Albert and Winston for a few years and learn. Raw.
4. Wylie - He loves. Hates to compare to existing NFL players, but you can't help but think of Welker. He's faster than Welker and is an excellent STs player.
5. Menzie - Cosell thought Menzie was THE best pure slot corner in the draft. Really good on the inside, not as good on the outside.
6. Gray - inconsistent, but is smooth in his running.
No opinion on the other players, he didn't watch them.
