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.

Maybe in a 3-tech role similar to Wharton.

Turk may be playing his way out of town; he'd gonna get a real nice deal this off-season at his present rate.

If so, with FAU's experience inside at K-State, maybe a little more weight would make him a viable interior rusher. Though again, with that get-off, he'll end up on his ass a LOT on the interior. He can't be slow off the ball in there, they'll just put him on the ground.

Everything comes down to him fixing this bizarre get-off issue.
