Here’s a first look at your newest Kansas City Chief, @fanudike. pic.twitter.com/P0T2q0UFmG

Felix Anudike-Uzomah was drafted with pick 31 of round 1 in the 2023 draft class. He scored a 8.73 #RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 209 out of 1634 DE from 1987 to 2023. https://t.co/maz03OdBwq pic.twitter.com/xoMJ9ki2Pv

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.

Felix Anudike-Uzomah, just now: "I got drafted by literally my favorite team growing up."

So just as I suspected Steelers are getting flooded with offers for the #32 pick.

I have a feeling we held on to the pick instead of trading down because of the optics of making a big splash pick to end the night.

I’m mostly good with the pick. But it feels like we could’ve done that and landed the same pick.

I don’t think that’s true. FAU was clearly the best remaining Edge. If that’s what the Chiefs wanted, they most likely weren’t going to see him once they traded down.

Uzi put on 35 pounds since 2020.

Probably not maxed out physically.

That’s possible. I’m not saying I’m outraged. I’m just wondering if it’s a factor. There were plenty of unsubstantiated rumors that clark wanted to keep his first rounder and that would’ve been a major buzzkill to all the chiefs fans who stayed the whole time. It’s just interesting to think about

I think that was important to Clark but not the end all be all.

The 5th yr option is very important. Getting a good young rusher like that for at least 5 years on the cheap is very valuable

It clearly had to be a factor.

Clark is a company man and it would have been bad entertainment/fan service.

Just as likely people were trading up for a DE and FAU was their last guy in a tier. I think he's a step above guys like Foskey and Hall and there's a good chance the Chiefs and others did too.

All of those rumors were based on actual comments from both Veach and Clark. Both confirmed in subsequent interviews that it was an inside joke and nothing more. Veach had a green light to trade if he wanted to - it’s just that nobody wanted to deal with him.

I think FAU can easily match Furious George's 6 sacks last year.

Those 2 are going to be fun to watch grow.

I read somewhere some scout saying Nolan Smith was soft and his explosiveness alone will not cut it in the NFL.
Draft is a crapshoot. You never really know how these prospects will pan out at the NFL level. Looking at Smith's face, he does look soft. The smile, the overall facial features.
Now compare that with Felix who looks mean and masculine. I like the mean looking mofos in my team.
