I loved the FAU pick, and despite being confused as to why we traded up for Rice, I really like Rashee Rice. I also really like Morris.

Veach is the same guy that drafted BoPete Keyes and Joshua Kaindoh. Yet, gatekeepers act like not liking a player drafted by Veach is sacrilegious.
'gatekeepers', lol

Veach has had some picks that turned out not so good, but to say so minutes after the selection and call the pick 'trash' because they didn't take a guy you prefer and feel is far superior-and yet went undrafted is dumb.

No 'gatekeeper' about it.

You're not a scout. You're not a GM. All of the guys who get paid to find NFL talent for a living looked at Wright and said, "No, thanks."

Including 9 teams AFTER the Nic Jones pic.

So if this kid is so great, why is that?

You're either wrong, or there are things you don't know that made this happen. That, you know, scouts and GM's do know.

Bottom line is, no NFL team thought Wright was worth the risk of taking, not even with a 7th rounder.

And every team passed on Priest Holmes too. Were they right to do so?

I am not saying Wright will ever be anything in the NFL, but what I am saying is that Wright played better in college, against better competition, than Nic Jones.

And since when have the Chiefs had an issue with players having character issues?

I don't know. I don't know shit about the kid, but there are 'character issues' and there are 'bad teammate' issues.

I guess Carolina took a flier on him as an UDFA. But nobody drafted him.

Holmes fell because in every measurable way, he was unspectacular. But he was smart, and he had a lot of heart, and when he landed in KC behind the best offensive line maybe ever, he was a perfect fit.

But if Wright is an asshole and nobody wants to coach him or play with him, then I'll take the special teams guy and pass, thanks.

You're getting pissed off over a dude drafted in the 7th round. Seriously, calm down.

I will say it again, being confused or disappointed by a pick DOES NOT EQUAL BEING PISSED OFF OR ANGRY

WTF is so hard to understand about that? I love the Chiefs, I think Veach is a top 2 GM in the NFL, and he has made so many great draft picks.

That does not mean I can't disagree with him, or with anyone else on this board.

So you are confused we drafted a guy instead of a guy that went undrafted?

I'm not sure why anyone would really care enough about this pick in the 7th round to argue. If he makes the team on special teams it's a success


Spoiled by Veach

I really like this kid. Had him in a couple of mocks and talked about him as a sleeper. Good pick up me thinks.

If you look at the draft and how many services had their board. It is clear that the NFL and the media had widely different ideas about the slotting of the talent available.
