Kansas City Chiefs draft recap

Sports

May 1st, 2017 by admin

The Kansas City Chiefs turned some heads over the weekend by trading up four times to make selections.   The biggest surprise was obviously the first round move to take Texas Tech Quarterback Patrick Mahommes II at number 10. The Chiefs made plays later to get a third round, fourth round, and fifth round pick.  Below is a recap of the players selected and the trades made by the Chiefs during the draft.

Rd. | Overall | Pos. | Player | Ht. | Wt. | College

1 | 10 | QB | Patrick Mahomes II | 6-3 | 230 | Texas Tech
2 | 59 | DL | Tanoh Kpassagnon | 6-7 | 289 | Villanova
3 | 86 | RB | Kareem Hunt | 5-11 | 216 | Toledo
4 | 139 | WR | Jehu Chesson | 6-2 | 204 | Michigan
5 | 183 | LB | Ukeme Eligwe | 6-2 | 239 | Georgia Southern
6 | 218 | DB | Leon McQuay III | 6-1 | 195 | USC

  • Kansas City traded its first-round pick (27th Overall) in 2017, a third-round pick in 2017 (91st Overall) and a first-round pick in 2018, for the 10th overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft. The club used the 10th pick in the 2017 draft to select Texas Tech QB Patrick Mahomes II.
  • Kansas City traded its third-round compensatory select on (104th Overall), its fourth-round pick (132nd Overall) and its final pick in the seventh round (245th Overall) for a third-round pick (86th Overall) in the 2017 NFL Draft. The club selected RB Kareem Hunt from Toledo. It’s also important to note that this was the first ever draft that compensatory selections were eligible to be traded, and the Chiefs took advantage.
  • Kansas City traded TE James O’Shaughnessy and the 216th pick in the 2017 draft to the New England Patriots for the 183rd Overall pick in the fifth round of the 2017 draft. The Chiefs used the 183rd pick on LB Ukeme Eligwe from Georgia Southern.
  • Kansas City traded two fifth-round picks (170 and 180 Overall) in the 2017 NFL Draft for a fourth-round pick (139th Overall) and selected WR Jehu Chesson from Michigan.

The Chiefs also have signed an extensive list of Undrafted Free Agents after the draft:

  • Alonzo Moore, WR, Nebraska
  • J.R. Nelson, CB, Montana
  • Tony Stevens, WR, Auburn
  • Ashton Lampkin, CB, Oklahoma State
  • Jordan Sterns, S, Oklahoma State
  • Anas Hasic, WR, West Florida
  • Damien Mama, G, USC
  • Ricky Ali’ifua, DE, Utah State
  • Devin Campbell, S, Oregon State
  • Austin Gearing, DL, Miami (Ohio)
  • Wyatt Houston, TE, Utah State
  • Justin Hunt, WR, Marshall
  • Ashton Lampkin, DB, Oklahoma State

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – Keni Harrison cruised to victory in the women’s 100-meter hurdles at the Drake Relays.  She won in a world-leading 12.56 seconds despite the cold, rain and wind and a field that featured six other runners ranked in the world’s top 10.

In the women’s 400 hurdles, Rio Olympics bronze medalist Ashley Spencer stumbled into the fifth hurdle after her hip locked. Spencer fell and failed to finish, and fellow American Georganne Moline won in a world-leading 54.66.

Clayton Murphy won the men’s 1,500 in 3:41.75 – his third victory in a week. The others came in the 4×800 at the World Relays in the Bahamas and the USA Track and Field mile road track title in Des Moines on Tuesday.

Rain postpones Reds-Cardinals game in St. Louis

ST. LOUIS (AP) — The game between the St. Louis Cardinals and Cincinnati Reds has been postponed because of rain. No makeup day has been announced and a doubleheader on Sunday has been ruled out.

The Cardinals, winners of nine of their past 11, were set to start Mike Leake (3-1, 1.32 ERA). The Reds, who have lost eight of nine games, expected Bronson Arroyo (2-2, 6.86) to make his fifth start of the season.

The teams are scheduled to play at 1:15 p.m. Sunday, but that game is already in question. The St. Louis region is expecting up to 7 inches of rain during the weekend. Forecasts call for rain throughout Sunday around Busch Stadium.
