It’s impossible not to love this guy after watching that game. It’s his “Mahomes vs LSU” tape
If you really wanna see some good cut-ups, find his games vs Arkansas and Texas A&M.

The 'Bama game is obviously impressive due to the magnitude and the talent he was facing, but in terms of sheer entertainment the Arkansas and Texas A&M games are just :-) :-) :-)

He is going to be a stud.

I didn’t know I could be this excited about a player.

I like his skill set better than Kareem, though they share several traits.

I can't tell you how much I love this pick. CEH is a Swiss army knife. If he learns to pass block, he'll be a 3-down back in no time and playing ahead of Williams.

Veach is a ****ing stud.

Agreed. I just hate it when people say "We could've traded down and still got him!" or "We could have picked this guy in a later round!" as if they have first-hand knowledge of some parallel universe in which that actually happened or were privy to the same information that the GM had regarding the intent of the other 31 teams. It's a ridiculous notion but it's a draft day guarantee somebody will say it when the pick isn't to their liking or goes against all the pre-draft simulators they toyed with.

Man, I am psyched for this pick. He has “it” in spades: great vision, initial burst, balance, and a nice addition of power for between the tackles.

His height combined with his ability to cut will make predicting the gap he is attacking damn near impossible.

While he may lack top-end speed, he is still lethal and will make you pay for a mistake. I’m happy to sacrifice elite top-end speed for elite burst and durability any day.

Welcome to KC, CEH :-)

Apparently Edwards Helaire killed a guy trying to rob him. Was in self defense. Damn not only did we get a stud but we got a stone cold killer as well

Both have good power and balance though kareem seems better. But clyde seems quicker, better burst. As runners it seems close but I like clyde better.

But the receiving blows kareem out of the water. Kareem was a rb who could catch passes. He could catch what he was given. But he can't impact the passing game nearly as much as clyde will.

You think Thornhill will give up #22 to Helaire?

I remember a certain running back who wasn't fast but could burst like a mofo.

This is the exact moment I found out that Clyde Edwards-Helaire was going to the #ChiefsKingdom on last night's live stream.

I see a lot of Kareem , feet balance , maybe better hands, vision , Kareem didn’t have top end speed but great initial burst to avoid the first guy, runs better routes from what I have seen

How does drafting a RB stop Cover 3? :-)
