Really wish we could have pulled Cody Schrader, but he's a Niner.

CJ Hanson is a super athlete for a guard, if you look up and down the list the Chiefs do what the Chiefs do, they are a team that values athletes for the most part. There are a few exceptions like Bolton isn't a super athlete.

Even the UDFA's you see it, Miles Battle has crazy athletic numbers.

How was this guy not drafted? Man he’s got nice size and speed and he can pass rush if you need him to. Ideal Spags backer IMO.

Think he’s gonna make the team. He’s the type of player you want to develop as your 3rd or 4th backer.

Curtis Jacobs is a three-year starter at one of the best NFL LB development schools in the country and is an elite athlete, yet doesn’t get talked about nearly enough.

Jacobs has played a variety of positions while at @PennStateFball, from more OLB and even in the slot in 2021… pic.twitter.com/10s3tA7vQO

He didn't get drafted because he isn't "great" at anything. He is very good and for linebackers that isn't enough. I think our defense is a great fit for linebackers that get the job done.

Became a bit overly obsessed with RAS and thought I'd look at Lovett and how he compares to our DTs not called Jones...he's solid enough with a RAS of over 6. Nnadi had a RAS that I could find of 1.21. I knew he was a slug but man that makes sense now. Farrell had 0.86. Yikes.

I really liked the Lovett pick up anyway, but yeah, he's getting snaps.

I've noticed Eyabi Okie-Anoma isn't listed on the UDFA articles that have dropped in the last 24 hours. Perhaps still some formalities to iron out? Or a change of plans?

I'm trying to not get my hopes up that he makes the roster but this was encouraging. From this article about the rookie mini-camp under "Five to Watch":

He’s tipped a couple of passes during team drills in the minicamp and he’s demonstrated speed and strength during defensive line drills. He collected 9 1/2 sacks at Oregon State last year along with two interceptions, two forced fumbles, and four passes defended. That’s production the Chiefs covet in long, lean defensive linemen.

Here is the full rookie mini camp roster released by the Chiefs.



Note that it has some errors that have been confirmed. They weren't very good at math, as some of the position groups do not have the correct total number of participants (WR, TE, DB all inflated by 1 in error).

And it has also been clarified that Eyabi Okie is a tryout participant, not an UDFA signing (nor rostered player, as the Chiefs mini camp roster indicates in error).

The most likely explanation is that on the Saturday handout, he's mistakenly listed in yellow as a current player, when he should have been listed in green as a tryout.

Gotcha, I took him out of the OP to just stick with the official list.

Emani Bailey kind of reminds me of Spencer Ware a bit. People forget that he was a pretty damn good RB when he was healthy.

Not the fastest guy, but has a bunch of wiggle mixed with bowling ball-like power. Shown to have decent hands, too. Even saw him out on some of those wheel routes we used to run with Hunt and Damien Williams.

Excited to see him with pads. Hope he doesn't turn into shit in a can like Deneric Prince did.

WR Reggie Brown waived, WR Jaaron Hayek signed to offseason roster after rookie minicamp tryout performance.

A tryout wideout caught the #Chiefs' eye enough to make it to the offseason program: https://t.co/Au5h23kM4a
