Kansas City Chiefs 2018 NFL Draft Selection

Breeland Speaks: Defensive End, ‘Ole Miss.
A three-plus year career culminating in 2017 second-team all-SEC honors; Speaks tallied 127 tackles, 9 sacks, 15 tackles for loss, a forced fumble, 2 fumble recoveries and four passes defensed in 37 games.

Derrick Nnadi: Defensive Tackle, Florida State.
Nnadi’s 48 game career included 165 tackles, 17 tackles for loss, 2 forced fumbles and 2 fumble recoveries, including his first team all-ACC honors.

Dorian O’Daniel: Linebacker, Clemson.
Finalist for the 2017 Butkus award, member of Sports Illustrated All American team and 2016 National title winning Clemson Tigers (logging 4 tackles against defending champs Alabama). He accumulated 227 tackles (28 for loss), 8.5 sacks, 12 quarterback pressures, 3 interceptions, 5 pass breakups, 2 forced fumbles and 2 fumble recoveries in 56 games.

Armani Watts: Safety, Texas A&M.
A 4-year starter, he recorded 324 tackles, (24 for loss), 17 passes defensed, 10 interceptions, 7 forced fumbles and 1.5 sacks, first team all-SEC and AP third team All American honors.

Tremon Smith: Cornerback, Central Arkansas.
Member of an FCS football program, Smith would still pad his stat sheet with 146 tackles, 53 passes defensed, 15 interceptions and 2 forced fumbles in 48 games.

Kahlil McKenzie: Defensive Tackle, Tennessee.
Although he played DT in college, the Chiefs selected McKenzie for the position of Offensive Guard. It has been stated, that with a strong base, and a lower body like a brick wall, offensive guard would be an excellent fit for him. When approached with this possibility, McKenzie replied, “I’d be willing to do anything, I just want to play football.”

Alright, I’ve provided the Chief’s 2018 draft picks and their numbers, but what does the Blind QB think?
