*** 2018 Prospect Tracker: Chiefs Interest / Visits / Work Outs ***
Annnnd another playoff run, and a winning season has us drafting at the tail end of each round, except this year, we *currently* don't have a 1st round pick.
This is the 7th year in a row that we will be tracking the college players the Chiefs have publicly or privately expressed interest in leading up to the NFL Draft. Here's how we did in 2017. We've done better in the previous years, but not so much last year, one of the many reasons I was slow to start one this year. After a few DM's, I decided to do it again as we run up to the final month. For those who are new, the way this operates is that we collectively monitor various social media sources, blogs, articles and reports for news of the Chiefs' interest in a certain player. When posted in this thread, I will update the OP to include the player. *Please provide the link to the article, the players name, position and team. I am going to try to link to player profiles when they exist, courtesy of draftbreakdown.com, or the NFL Draft Tracker. For some of the lesser-known guys, it may just be a random video or profile from their team website. Let's meet some of our future Chiefs: 2018 Draft - Chiefs Prospect Tracker Offense QB Chase Litton, Marshall -- CHIEF Tanner Lee, Nebraska Logan Woodside, Toldeo Riley Ferguson, Memphis Alex McGough, Florida International Jesse Ertz, Kansas State RB Ish Witter, Mizzou Akrum Wadley, Iowa Ryan Nall, Oregon State (FB) Nick Bawden, San Diego State (FB) WR Davon Grayson, ECU Robert Foster, Alabama Jordan Lasley, UCLA Jaleel Scott, New Mexico State Equanimeous St. Brown, Notre Dame Auden Tate, FSU James Washington, Oklahoma State Dylan Cantrell, Texas Tech Keke Coutee, Texas Tech Martez Valdez-Scantling, South Florida Elijah Marks, Northern Arizona --CHIEF Daurice Fountain, Northern Iowa Dominic Collins, Mizzou Anthony Miller, Memphis Byron Pringle, K-State -- CHIEF TE Mark Andrews, Oklahoma Ian Thomas, Indiana Jordan Akins, UCF Tyler Conklin, Cent Mich Chris Herndon, Miami Dallas Goedert, South Dakota State Durham Smythe, Notre Dame Jordan Thomas, Mississippi State David Wells, San Diego State Ben Johnson, Kansas OT Joseph Noteboom, TCU Martinas Rankin, Mississippi State Tyrell Crosby, Oregon Jamarco Jones, Ohio State Jamil Demby, Maine Aaron Evans, Central Florida G Will Hernandez, UTEP Jamil Demby, Maine Colby Gossett, Appalachian State Braden Smith, Auburn Adam Ploudre, Mizzou C Brian Allen, MSU Mason Cole, Michigan Frank Ragnow, Arkansas Patrick Morris, TCU Defense CB Jaire Alexander, Louisville Donte Jackson, LSU Tarvarus McFadden, FSU Rashaan Gaulden, Tennessee Carlton Davis, Auburn Nick Nelson, Wisconsin Brandon Facyson, Virginia Tech Greg Stroman, Virginia Tech Chandon Sullivan, Georgia State Darius Phillips, Western Michigan Mike Hughes, Central Florida Chris Campbell, Penn State Joshua Kalu, Nebraska Malik Reaves, Villanova Tremon Smith, Central Arkansas -- CHIEF S Armani Watts, Texas A&M -- CHIEF Trey Walker, Louisiana-Lafayette Siran Neal, Jacksonville State Troy Apke, Penn State DeShon Elliott, Texas Justin Reid, Stanford Kyzir White, West Virginia Kameron Kelly, San Diego State Jeremy Reaves, South Alabama C.J.

Said this in the other draft interview thread, but is it surprising that not many DT's have been interviewed? 8+ safeties and corners met with, only 5 DT. Either we're going secondary with the top 2 picks or there aren't many DT's the Chiefs like?

“No Secret #Chiefs love Mike Hughes. Targeting Corner Rd2. Don’t be surprised if trade up from 54. Mike Hughes is their crush. Few other names... Dorance Armstrong, Malik Jefferson, Frank Ragnow, Braden Smith, Josh Sweat. Chiefs shown ain’t afraid being bold.” |

KYLIE FITTS Q: Did you speak with the Chiefs at all? “Yeah, I spoke with them at the informal meetings a bit. It went really well. They just got a new member of the staff that was on my team as a player with me this past year (Whittingham). He’s a real good guy. So I was talking with him and talking with the scouts there and the coaches. I thought it went really good and that I fit in their scheme really well.” LOWELL LOTULELEI Q: Have the Chiefs reached out to you at all? “I talked with them. I just had a little informal interview with them. It was good. They just talked to me about my background and talked to me about some plays and stuff.” |
