Dude is gonna make a day 1 impact
Dude fuck yeah, he was my favorite safety. I went on a progression from adderley to gardner johnson to him I honestly thought he would have been a 1st rounder [Reply]

I think that’s just something Reid always asks. There was a bunch of noise and celebrating on the other end of the phone and I think he kept asking Reid what he said. Then it just became uncomfortable for Reid and he couldn’t do anything but keep asking. [Reply]
I could not be more stoked that the Chiefs took this kid. I legitimately thought he was going round 1 and would end up in Seattle to replace Thomas. I've wanted this kid for a while and thought he became out of reach. I'm less than stoked about the other two picks, but this one makes up for it. [Reply]
From the Athletic:
The Chiefs go with Juan Thornhill, a selection has Steve Spagnuolo written all over it. Andy Reid essentially just confirmed that Juan Thornhill & Tyrann Mathieu can both be versatile in the back end of the secondary. He says both players can be interchangeable per situation of the game & scheme. Thornhill wants to play football so badly that he basically said he’ll play every position in the secondary & be the Chiefs’ kicker if needed.” —Nate Taylor [Reply]
