Chiefs Meet With a Quarterback, Two Fullbacks and a Defensive Back

PrintWe've got word that the Kansas City Chiefs met with a few more players at the Senior Bowl this week.
Scott Pioli was known for taking a look at late round quarterbacks so one of them isn't a huge surprise. There's also two fullbacks and a strong safety trying to prove he can player cornerback as well.
QB Dan LeFevour (6'3", 229 pounds), Central Michigan
Chiefs GM Scott Pioli took a late round quarterback somewhat often while with the Patriots and LeFevour fits that mold. He has good size and some scrambling ability but his accuracy hasn't been great at the Senior Bowl practices.
He's projected to go in the 3rd-4th round.
SS/CB Kurt Coleman (5'11", 189 pounds), Ohio State
Coleman is trying to prove he can play both safety and cornerback in the NFL. He feels some of the nickel defenses he played in at Ohio State will help him tremendously as he makes the leap to the NFL.
He's projected to go in the 5th round and runs about a 4.5 40.
FB John Connor (5'11", 240 pounds), Kentucky
He got the late invite because a LSU running back failed a physical and couldn't play.
He's one of the few fullbacks that could actually be drafted, which is a rarity of sorts. He's an underrated runner and receiver and played in a school record 54 games, which means there's plenty of tape on him.
He could be drafted in the 7th round or a UDFA.
FB/HB Rashawn Jackson (6'1", 239 pounds), Virginia
NFL Draft Scout has had him as their top fullback for some time. He's more versatile than John Connor it sounds like and has the athleticism to be a great pass/run blocker and catch the ball out of the backfield.
He could be drafted in the 4th-6th round.

Draft his mom.
She’s a badass.
Toby is in HR, which technically means he works for corporate, so he's really not a part of our family. Also, he's divorced, so he's really not a part of his family.

we need to stop lookin at full backs
Mike jam coxs is the best at catching balls out the back field and hitting holes. I would actually like to see mike cox get the rock on short yardage let him jam it up the middle.

Mike Cox
Rocks the dirty trailer.

I agree
Why waste a draft pick on a fullback. I think we have other areas that need improved a lot more than fullback, like the offensive line. Mike Cox did an okay job for us these last two years. I too would like to see him get the ball more often.

Well Connor could very well be an UDFA
I could see them talking to him just in case that happen to bring competition for Cox. Its pretty common for teams to do that just like other teams where doing to Succop last season.
exactly
AND I heard KC could end up w a compensatory 7th round pick.
IF you get a new starter at fb, that’s worth a pick

The NFL wants us to have another 7th rounder because our pick last year was so awesome.
The question is not how far. The question is, do you possess the constitution, the depth of faith, to go as far is as needed?
LSU RB that didnt pass the physical
Charles Scott, some around here like him as a 5th round “thumper”
He did break a collar bone in November, so that could have affected his ability to be ready

LeFevour would be a great guy to bring along as depth.
Potential to be a really good QB.
"Success is never ending, failure is never final."
He is like a Tavarris jackson..
Little accuracy great mobility and elusiviness when dropping back..
Someone with a name like LeFevour
really should be playing hockey.
