A former player for the Kansas City Chiefs who was tasered twice for resisting arrest with officers, has been charged in federal court for illegally possessing firearms.
According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, 40-year-old Saousoalii P. Siavii, Jr., of Independence, was charged Monday in U.S. District Court in with three counts of being an unlawful drug user in possession of firearms. [Reply]

There were some real "feel good" stories released about him.
Edit, maybe that is wrong it was another year and Eric Downing.
2001 was a draft I was pissed at. There was a player that slid into the late 2nd and the Chiefs had the ammo to go up and get him. It was Shaun Rogers out of Texas. Detroit traded up with the Giants and got him. Chiefs had multiple picks in the 3rd and 4th and could have got him easily. [Reply]

I think Downing was our first pick that year - 3rd round [Reply]

2001 was a horrible draft for us.
And I completely forgot about another DL bust Eric Downing.

I'd never heard of Eddie Freeman and Junior Siavii and Turk McBride at the time, so I had no opinion there.
I (and everyone else) was stunned at the Tyson Jackson pick. Everyone knew that was a bad pick.
I thought Tank Tyler was a great pick and was strongly advocating for him before the draft.
Glenn Dorsey seemed like a no-brainer, so I blame nobody for that one. I never figured out what went wrong there.
We got Tyson Jackson, Matt Cassel (traded 2nd rounder) and some DE named Alex Magee through the 2009 draft with our first 3 picks.
