I think we take DL/Pass Rusher with our first pick. Then with our 3rd and 4th rounds I feel like we will take OL and WR. Depending on who is there and so on.

I think you'll be looking at guys like:

Mike Davis, Texas
Josh Huff, Oregon
Robert Herron, Wyoming
Brandon Coleman, Rutgers

All really, really nice WR prospects. Coleman is an absolute freak at 6'5", 230 lbs. Has a remarkable ability to bust right through press coverage as well.

Huff and Herron are about the same guy - fast, stocky slot guys.

Mike Davis, IMO, is on the same level as a guy like Marquis Lee. I think he's got all the tools and has the potential to be a #1 WR.

Any of these guys immediately upgrades the Chiefs WR position.

I like Jared Abbrederis, WR, Wisconsin if we take one in the third.

I wonder what Coleman's speed score was. He ran a bit faster than I expected.

I agree with you, but I'm just stating what I think Dorsey does. He will probably see that the chiefs have 2 similar players in Avery and AJ Jenkins (though I realize they have their warts). He probably wont take a risk on "outliers."

I also think Bowe plays a large part in this. Bowe is being paid like a top 5 receiver, but has only gained 1474 yrds in the last 2yrd combined. We can make excuses for it, but I think even bowe knows that 2014 will be a "make or break" year for him. He stated that he plans on losing alot of weight to gain speed and stamina (something he tries to do every offseason with varying degree of success). Chiefs are stuck with Bowe for 2014 because his salary is guaranteed. In 2015, when he is 31 his cap hit $14 million!!

Florida wide receiver Solomon Patton ran between 4.32 and 4.36 40-yard dash for NFL scouts. Has several upcoming workouts and visits

6-foot-3, 215 pounds Cody Latimer ran the 40-yard dash unofficially today in 4.39 and 4.43 seconds at his campus Pro Day workout. Latimer also registered a 39-inch vertical leap

He had a big day. That'll push him up a couple rounds...


BTW, he played against Dennard and looked good...that's impressive.

Scouts say pro days are a tiny part of their evaluations

Quote:

“That’s 95 percent of the grade,” Cardinals scout Chris Culmer said of college tape. “Pro day is a little tiny final piece of the puzzle.”

Lions scout Joe Kelleher says that by the time he is attending a prospect’s pro day, he has already watched about half of that player’s final college season. By the time a scout has seen that much of a player on the field, there’s not much that can change about an evaluation based on a workout in shorts and a T-shirt.

“Generally after that fifth, sixth or seventh game it’s not as dramatic as say bumping a guy up two rounds or dropping two rounds, you’re just saying, ‘Hey, he can do this,’ where I didn’t see it in my report before,” Kelleher said.

They expected him to run in the very high 4.4s to 4.5. He ran a 4.39 with a foot that isn't 100%.

I'd be happy if KC or SF selected him in rd 3. :)
