Chiefs
Chiefs GM John Dorsey explained their approach towardsย developing raw NFL prospects.
โI think what they have is they have a degree of athleticism that you look for in that particular position,” Dorsey said, via Adam Teicher of ESPN. โAnd those were very unique traits. We have coaches that can develop these. And I think what youโre doing is youโre going into (offseason practice) and training camp now, and youโre trying to see if thereโs a steady degree of improvement as we move along here.
โItโs a chance. You may be able to hit one. Weโll just see what happens as they develop. I said, โWhy not take a shot and see where these guys stand?โ Iโm kind of curious to see, once they get into (offseason practice), how they progress.โ
