Yeah, if Thompson doesn’t absolutely ball out in camp(if that’s even a thing this year)I think he’s gone. I get that he was a rookie but the mental mistakes late in the season were unacceptable. The failure to get eyes on Pat as the hot read and the fact that it sure seemed to me that he thought he couldn’t advance the fumbled KO in the Texans game(go back and watch that. He should’ve scored on that play. He hesitated on the return when no one was near him yet)stick out the most.

You don't make a 1st round selection based off how you feel about your 6th rounder.

Those 3 are locked for the roster, they may keep 1 more and let all the other guys battle out or they may all be gone but this is a remade RB room.

Good Morning Football gushing about our pick. Schrager said we won the draft.

Similar size, but different players entirely. Thompson is also the only RB under contract after this season.

I love CEH as a running back. He will have immediate success in Reid’s offense, runs much bigger than his size, and is a talented pass catcher. I don’t care that they took a RB with the last pick of the first round. What I’m hesitant about is if CEH is the best back in the draft with all of them available. Time will tell.

We know what this offense was with Kareem Hunt. Clyde Edwards-Helaire is not a Kareem Hunt type back...which leaves a little uncertainty.

I thought Swift was a little more explosive but also had more issues with injuries, all in all can't be mad at the pick the top RBs are all grouped right together, Taylor has great long speed and he runs well but more wear and he isn't a weapon in the receiving game.

Good point about 1st versus 6th....but they were very high on Thompson last year. Can you not teach the mental aspect of the game?

I guess I'm more disappointed that Thompson appears to be a bust.

Missing on a 6 isn't a bust, it has about the same likelyhood of success as a UDFA.

How does it feel to watch your new teammates get a ring? Probably hungry

A 1st Round RB!? Great! This offense is going to be even more exciting. Video above (The Call), Clyde sounds like a fine young man, and EB with RB coach are ready for him.

Clyde Edwards-Helaire is only about 5-7 and 205, raising questions about whether he will ever be a regular featured back. The Chiefs and GM Brett Veach doesn't have those doubts.

"We certainly view this guy as a franchise-type running back,” Veach said.

It is my belief hes the best RB for our system outside of Swift but that doesn't mean you disregard value. Nobody else wanted this guy until at least pick 47.
Need a partner to trade down with... Veach was pretty clear that there weren’t any adequate offers.

Said this several times, the idea you can just move down is a bit stupid, someone else has to want your pick.
