7 standout players from Chiefs rookie minicamp
The Kansas City Chiefs completed their three-day rookie minicamp on Monday.
This was the first taste of NFL living for seven draft picks, 17 undrafted free agents and over 50 tryout players who were among those in attendance. Players only practiced in helmets and shorts with no pads, but they were allowed to do 7-on-7 and 11-on-11 team drills.
Rookie minicamp amounted to what Andy Reid refers to as a “passing camp.” Basically, it’s tougher to evaluate offensive linemen, running backs, defensive linemen, and linebackers fully because they’re not playing in pads, going full speed and engaging in contact practices.
Because of that, we’re not going to be focusing much on those positions. Instead, we are looking at some wide receivers, corners, safeties and one linebacker who impressed.
