KC Chiefs draft picks are preparing to leave their hometowns and head out to Kansas City for their very first minicamp, which takes place this weekend. Chiefs rookies -- eight draft picks, 15 undrafted free agents and other tryout players -- will be in KC for the rookie minicamp from Friday to Sunday.

A few players have taken to Twitter to announce their travel plans...

Jeff Allen: Loving KC right now. First time ever coming to the city and now it's home. #ChiefsNation Finally experienced KC BBQ and it lived up to the hype and exceeded my expectations.

[Editor's Note: Jeff Allen went to Gates at the recommendation of Nathan Scheelhaase, former QB of the legendary Rockhurst football program, and also Allen's QB at Illinois.]

Donald Stephenson: #ChiefsNation lets get it!!!!
