Chiefswinitall 60 Posted April 22, 2018 Author Share Posted April 22, 2018 . The Star’s seven-round Kansas City Chiefs NFL draft projection, version 2.0 By Terez A. Paylor tpaylor@kcstar.com LinkedIn Google+ Pinterest Reddit Print Order Reprint of this Story April 21, 2018 12:45 PM Updated 7 hours 56 minutes ago Here it is, the second of three seven-round NFL Draft projections for the Chiefs. The draft starts Thursday. My third and final draft projection will come out that day. You can check out the first version here. (A quick disclaimer: This mock draft was done with the use of the draft generator at Fanspeak.com. And a quick reminder — the Chiefs don't have a first-round pick because of the trade for Patrick Mahomes last April.) SECOND ROUNDDL Nathan Shepherd, Fort Hays State (54th overall): There will be a learning curve here, as Shepherd played his college ball at tiny Fort Hays State. But there’s no doubting his physical traits and tape. At a solidly-built 6 feet 4 and 315 pounds, Shepherd possesses outstanding athleticism and a real drive to get better. He’ll have the benefit of playing a handful of snaps this year behind the likes of Xavier Williams, Rakeem Nunez-Roches, Chris Jones and Jarvis Jenkins before earning a starting role in 2019 as a shaded nose or penetrating three-technique. By the way, I’d like to welcome Shepherd to the 2018 All-Juice Team (coming Wednesday). Today's top news by email The local news you need to start your day 2:53 Chiefs GM Brett Veach's strategy on NFL Draft Kansas City Chiefs general manager Brett Veach talked about the upcoming NFL Draft during a news conference on Friday, April 20, 2018. Shane Keyser THIRD ROUNDOLB Obo Okoronkwo, Oklahoma (78th overall): I wasn’t kidding about this being a defense-first draft, folks. And let me tell you something — if Okoronkwo is on the board here, you rush to the podium and take him. He’s not the tallest guy at 6 feet 2, but he’s a thickly-built 253 pounds and when you turn on the tape, you’ll immediately fall in love with his effort, athleticism and flashes of advance pass-rush technique. Okoronkwo and Tanoh Kpassagnoh would be a fun duo to watch for years. OT/OG Alex Cappa, Humboldt State (86th overall): The Chiefs don’t have many backup options at tackle, and given how long it takes to develop offensive linemen in the NFL, the Chiefs would be smart to draft one with the size (6 feet 7, 305 pounds), athleticism and nastiness of Cappa, who could turn into a starting option at either guard or tackle in a few seasons. He has the movement skills to fit in the Chiefs’ zone-heavy run schemes, and he also has a strong punch. His technique needs lots of work and he’ll need to acclimate to the speed of the NFL, but he’ll have time to develop in those areas with the Chiefs. FOURTH ROUNDTE Durham Smythe, Notre Dame (122nd overall): The Chiefs are going to add additional depth to the tight end position, despite the recent signing of free-agent Tim Wright. Smythe, a strong blocker (yes!) with great size (6 feet 5, 257 pounds) could give the Chiefs the attached, inline tight end they need to make coach Andy Reid’s offense sing for the next several seasons. 1:20 Chiefs tight ends help kids plant vegetable garden at Luff Elementary Kansas City Chiefs tight ends teamed up with Kansas City Community Gardens at Luff Elementary to help plant vegetables in the school’s gardens. The KCCG Schoolyard Gardens Program works with schools to establish gardens on school grounds. Shane Keyser Related stories from Kansas City Star The Star’s seven-round Chiefs NFL draft projection, version 1.0 Defensive help could be coming for Chiefs via draft CB D.J. Reed, Kansas State (124th overall): Here’s another member of the 2018 All-Juice Team! Reed is not very big (5 feet 9, 188 pounds), but he tested very well athletically and you don’t have to turn on the tape for long to see this cat is a bonafide football player. He plays with a ton of enthusiasm, has some ball skills and can even chip in as a returner — an underrated need in 2018, given the Chiefs’ increased reliance on Tyreek Hill as an offensive threat. Reed projects as a slot corner but given how much teams throw, that’s basically a starting position. SIXTH ROUNDS Siran Neal, Jacksonville State (196th overall): Neal is a plus athlete with good size (6 feet 1, 205 pounds) and some versatility at safety and cornerback. He’s a hitter with physicality who needs to refine his instincts and technique, but this is another guy who could be a defensive contributor in a year or two if he really commits to getting better. SEVENTH ROUNDILB Jermaine Carter Jr., Maryland (233rd overall): This guy isn’t huge (6 feet, 228 pounds), but he runs well for the position (4.68 40) and flashes some natural cover ability, which could be a real boon one day in the Chiefs’ nickel and dime subpackages. DT McKay Murphy, Weber State (243th overall): The son of former baseball star Dale Murphy, McKay matches good size (6 feet 4, 295 pounds) with terrific speed (4.81 40) and raw strength (40 reps of 225). He really emerged as a senior, when he totaled 40 tackles and four sacks. 1:47 Here is the Chiefs 2018 Schedule Here is the Kansas City Chiefs 2018 schedule, which includes five prime-time games.

Chiefswinitall 60 Posted April 22, 2018 Author Share Posted April 22, 2018 Yeah, it sucks. I am not believing this one. 2nd round pick should be a 7th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMO 6,811 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Yeah, it sucks. I am not believing this one. 2nd round pick should be a 7th. Well.. not quite that low. But, yeah, a 3 or 4 is his ceiling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquidfriend 1,151 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Clear your browser history and you can view articles again.I forgot they have the dumbest of paywalls. I'm going to be that guy and say I actually don't think it's a bad mock. Just depends what you think of Shepherd. Only pick I really don't care for is the TE, who I see is a one trick pony and 4th round is rather early for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just depends what you think of Shepherd. Only pick I really don't care for is the TE, who I see is a one trick pony and 4th round is rather early for that. I don't necessarily dislike most of the players just really dislike where he has them. The dlineman is fine but he's gonna need 2 years. The edge from OK is ok but ceiling may be a backup so 5th round is where I'd target him. The TE sucks. The corner is a midget and we already have 2 guys that can play slot. Just feels like he's picking guys he liked their energy with no plan. D needs immediate help this year. This draft provides none. And wayyyyyy too many small school guys.

liquidfriend 1,151 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 The DL is exactly what they look for. SPARQ guy. Just don't like he's already 24. They will need a slot guy if they intend to play Fuller outside as Nelson is a UFA next year. I don't like the edge guy either, so no disagreement. Same with the TE. I've seen worse mocks.

They will need a slot guy if they intend to play Fuller outside as Nelson is a UFA next year. I don't like the edge guy either, so no disagreement. Same with the TE. I've seen worse mocks. Shepherd is slightly above average in sparq. For reference, KPass was a 1.1 sparq, which is about the 87th percentile among all current NFL dlinemen. 50% and 0.0 score is the NFL average. Shepherd scored a 0.4 which is about the 64th percentile. Nothing wrong with that as the average nfl defensive linemen is athletic to start with but he's not a heavy sparq guy or the physical freak kpass is. Kpass had the highest dline sparq score of any of the dline guys that went in the first 2 rounds. He may be worth it but I'd be much more comfortable in the third. Probably have to switch to end in our system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquidfriend 1,151 Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 In a bad DL year, that's probably the cats meow. I'm not banging on the table for him exactly, but it's not a super aids selection. Mayock has him #3 on his DT board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xen 1,010,219 Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Being a bad year for a position means you should go for another position instead of reaching. Good DB year so go get one of those. Much bigger need anyway imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggjliv4 1,292 Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Agreed, getting the 3rd ranked DL in a shitty DL year means nothing. That's like bragging we got the best LT with Fisher in a horrible draft year. Have to stick you our board based on actual overall talent. The 9th ranked CB could be miles ahead of the 3rd ranked DL. Has to be BPA and need trumps in the case of ties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquidfriend 1,151 Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Man you guys are preaching what I know lol I'm just saying Andy likes to take fatties. DL in particular. He's arguably the 4th best DT in this draft. This class is thin because all the top DL went back to college for another year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
