Which teams do you think it was?

I think it was Veach talking to CEH on his draft call.

Look up the call. It’s on KC Chiefs YouTube page. Veach said Pat pick a player and he said Clyde. Veach said good we were thinking the same thing

I think I've seen 6 different draft grades of ours, and 4 of them are A's. To me that just speaks volumes given the conventional wisdom of RBs in the first round, etc etc. This guy is just such a perfect and exciting fit for our offense -- which was obviously already other-wordly -- that it gets graded on a separate scale.

Without an off season program a running back can still step in and be productive quickly.
The 5th year allows the Chiefs to keep him for 5 years and move on without dropping huge money on a RB.

Great point. Welcome to CP. Rep.

Will do. Thanks.

GMFB mentioned that when the Chiefs grabbed CEH many teams were mad and frustrated as they were hoping to snag him Day 2 early.

VAGOMO 4 LIFE! 04-24-2020 07:48 AM

Joe Burrow said CEH is the best player he’s ever played with

RunKC 04-24-2020 07:51 AM

I legitimately think CEH’s game against Alabama last Fall is the best tape of any prospect in this draft.

Holy shit

I wasn't big on the idea.

but as I've also said, I think Veach and Reid have earned my trust.

Watching Helaire video all morning, I see why they were thrilled to pull the trigger.

He's got elite vision and good lord, that lateral quickness and ability to make people miss is really something.

With a less than stellar line, a back like this is what you need. He makes people miss.

I ain't gonna argue with it. Welcome Clyde the Glide, the fresh Prince of Helaire.

Now get me a LB, a CB and a couple of fatties and I'm happy. :)
