NFLDC Chiefs Draft Review

I to am concerned with the Cottam pick. It is very hard to view him as anything else besides a blocking TE because he only caught 20 passes in his entire collegiate career. Almost every TE in the draft caught more passes than that in two seasons, let alone a career.

If it were me, I would have drafted Jeremy Zuttah. He would have automatically started at OG, and God knows we need the help at O Line more than a backup TE that's going to play in two TE sets. IMO, there wasn't another team in the NFL that was going to draft Cottam in the third round.

All and all, I wished that KC would have gotten some immediate starters in round 3. All 3 third round picks are going to start out as backups. Some may be third string?? While I still like the picks, I would have like KC to get one sure fire starter in round 3....That didn't happen.
