KPass Part Deux.

Chiefs selected Florida State DE Josh Kaindoh with the No. 144 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.

Kaindoh (6’6/260) was rated as the third-best defensive end from the 2017 prep cycle according to 247Sports, behind only Chase Young and Jaelan Phillips. Despite playing in 36 games over four years at FSU, Kaindoh had a hard time making a consistent impact on the field as injuries and inconsistent performance led to him starting only 10 of those games. Despite starting eight games in 2020, Kaindoh failed to record a single sack and produced just 3.0 TFL. He boasts incredible bend for his size and an eagle-like wingspan that helps him keep his pads clean. His splash plays are jaw-dropping, but far and few between, and he's admittedly stayed a below-average tackler throughout his career. Kaindoh is a developmental 4-3 DE who could be a serviceable defensive line piece if he can finally realize his physical potential. His stature comps to Josh Sweat.

He looks quicker than Kpass ever was.

But we'll see.

It was a position I wanted, and I'll trust Veach, Spags, and Daly know what they're doing.

The difference is KPass was a 2nd rounder. He is a late 4th rounder.

Pretty much how I feel. I trust these guys though so let’s see what happens

Yes, a Kpass pick if Kpass went on the fifth round.

As somebody that is very familiar with FSU, you guys just don’t understand how bad that program has become.

They’re full of extremely talented guys that underachieved. Kaindoh is one of many.

The Chiefs obvious feel they can do much better as they should.

If I recall, one of the RGR Football contributors did a draft crush on Kaindoh a few weeks before the draft.

Maybe he can come claim his prize...and elaborate.

Well his RAS is a home run

I wonder who exactly they are planning to start across from Clark.

I like the swing.

Yea I saw that too.

In early downs? Danna or Jones probably.

Thanks for weighing in! :thumb:

Danna is is a damn good run defender. Could work on his pass rush
