Veach said the #Chiefs had 16-18 players with first round grades and Felix was one of them.

Also said a couple AFC teams weren’t interested in trading with Kansas City.

Naturally.

It might not be over for him but if a tackle is sitting there in the draft they like I doubt they say "pass we got Kingsley "

Nice little pass rush rep from Sunday. Kid is figuring it out. He’s gonna be damn solid if not really good in a couple years.

He's showed up in flashes more and more as the season has gone on. I think the light has finally come on for him and he's getting it.

I'm sorry but he's still got the slowest getoff on that entire DL.

He's the last one moving on both sides of the ball. Play the video super slow, keep hitting pause and play, pause and play, pause and play.

It's going to be limit any contributions he makes for his entire career.

He gets off pretty much at exactly the same time as Karlaftis.

What pausing that clip does is demonstrate what freakish explosion Chris Jones has. FAU next to Jones makes FAU look slow, but really it's just Jones blasting off the ball.

He's not stationary as the QB is catching the ball. That's a MASSIVE improvement for him. From what I see there, he's on par with everyone on the line that ISN'T a Hall of Fame caliber DL...

EDIT: As I put it at .25 speed and do it again, he may actually be an Nth BEFORE Karlaftis. I just don't think I agree with you here. On that play, he got off the ball just fine.
