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."

Plenty of WR talent left: Hyatt, Tillman, Mingo, Dell, Mims, Perry, Reed, Rice, Downs, and Scott.

Eh, not too bent out of shape because we absolutely needed a complementary pass rusher and Omenihu isn't really a complement to GK. Just really would've been intrigued by Porter Jr.

Onward and upward. He'll be a player and a fun guy to cheer for.
Porter Jr would probably give Veach a bunch of flexibility with how to handle Sneed’s contract situation. That had to be tempting, but wasn’t the immediate need.

I get it. Part of picking last. Good problem to have when you win Super Bowls.

Like this guy more than Karlaftis. Was not real high on Karlaftis. He just didnt produce as much as he should of in college. This guy has shown it in results and good athletic profile.

Coach 10:18 PM 04-27-2023
Here's the thing as well. He still has room to grow. When he came to Kansas State, he was a scrawny kid at 220.

He's now 255. And he's 21 years old, last I checked.

First time watching his tape and this kid looks really good. Has speed and is bendy for his large size. In one play he was triple-teamed and still managed to sack the QB.

Got some weird ass names at DE. Karlaftis, Omenihu, and Anudike-Uzomah. Reminds me of when our secondary was a Key and Peele sketch.

I feel like the Chiefs did very well with pick 31. This guy is quality and not a reach IMO. We have 9 more picks. There will be movement tomorrow for sure. I'm pretty excited with this pick.

Damn I hope so. I’d probably be the first Cper to get called a pussy by one of our draft picks on draft day

He's pretty clearly a Chiefs-type pick. He's self-made hard-worker with a non-stop motor.

Very safe pick for KC, in my opinion. I don't like him right now against the run but he's going to be able to grow into it here which is good. Certainly brings a great speed rush off the edge right away in sub-packages and our edge rotation should be fresher throughout games. He's similar to a younger Frank Clark to me, so Veach/Spags definitely seem to have a type at RDE.

My only real disappointment is passing on Hyatt. He could have put that explosive player back in the KC offense. But eh, there are plenty of WRs that might do that yet.

Kind of hopeful they make a move up for Benton tomorrow, really want that cat on the interior DL.

One great thing about the pick is we are officially set on DL, for now. I kind of ****ing love that. Two young up and coming edges.

Going to be weird seeing someone in Clark's spot who's going to be able to do that

Seems like a pretty clear path long term but maybe Crow is right. The talent just absolutely leaps out at you. The measurables and size are legit. why's he still on the board?

Gotta be something we don't know.
The only thing that I can think of other than some unknown character/learning flaw is maybe teams dislike his hips/feet in transition more than we think.
