Some fun here. Edwards-Helaire rushed for 1,415 yards and 16 touchdowns as a junior .. all-purpose yards -- receiving (55 receptions, 453 yards) and kick returner (KEY) 10 returns, 214 yards pic.twitter.com/3Duq1jjy6J
Holy offense Bat Man. I love Clyde Edwards-Helaire. He is best Rb in the draft. Watkins and Hill deep. Kelce in the middle. And Edwards-Helaire underneath. Good Luck defenses.
Brett Veach told Andy Reid to watch some Clyde Edwards-Helaire film and told Reid you’ll see Brian Westbrook. Reid watched. Then got back to Veach and said he’s better than Westbrook.

Not even close. CEH runs a lot like Barry Sanders IMHO. Priest didn't have the speed, quickness nor cutting ability this kid has. Priest had the ability to glide behind a HOF line and read the holes very well. This kid is a "muscled up" Tyreek Hill and that is a very good thing.:-)
Yeah...he looks nothing like Holmes. How can this guy be a scout?
I thought of Sanders when watching his highlights too ....seemed to have that 6th sense on where defenders inertia was carrying them. That cant be taught...
I think he's going to be a star...especially in this offense. [Reply]
Reid and Veach seemed pretty ecstatic when the pick went in. Who knows, this may be the guy they were after all along. Super pumped about this kid! [Reply]
Brett Veach told us on the livestream that #Chiefs' OC Eric Bieniemy started texting him about six picks before they were on the clock about "going & getting him," with "him" being Clyde Edwards-Helaire.
Dave Toub texted a couple of minutes after the pick.
This is really the only video you need to watch. You don't even need to listen to the narration.
Just watch this kids feet. On every one of these plays. Watch his fucking feet.
Hell, look at this run @ 2:18 :-):-):-) Look at the quickness. It's ridiculous. If you watch only one play, watch his feet on that fucking play. ELITE. Swift can't do that.
this is a fine pick after watching some videos (extensive research, I know).
RB was a concern during the regular season, not during the playoffs though as we all know Damien Williams stepped the fuck up in the playoffs and Superbowl. But the regular season it was kind of a dumpster fire for a lot of it.
There's nothing wrong with taking a RB with the last pick in the 1st round and he's going to make some plays for us. [Reply]
Clyde Edwards-Helaire on the Chiefs: "They were big on getting the RB in space and that's absolutely where I thrie. The offense is a perfect fit for me."

To be fair the analysts also ranked swift higher. But that’s the difference in analysts and pro scouts. [Reply]
Joe Burrow, Heisman winner and #1 overall pick, on an interview with Dan Patrick had something to say about new #Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire. pic.twitter.com/9FZA6jcq3c
