Chiefs start signing their draft picks
Posted by Josh Alper on May 10, 2013, 1:34 PM EDT


Teams are starting to sign their draft picks all around the league and the Chiefs are no exception.

The Chiefs announced Friday that they have signed sixth-round offensive lineman Eric Kush and seventh-round linebacker Mike Catapano. They are the first two members of their eight-player draft class to sign contracts.

Both Kush and Catapano are products of schools not known for being pipelines of talent for the NFL. Kush played left tackle and center at California University in Pennsylvania, but projects to an interior spot in the NFL. The Chiefs have Rodney Hudson at center presently with Jon Asamoah, Geoff Schwartz and Jeff Allen making up the leading candidates for starting guard spots.

Catapano was the Ivy League’s defensive player of the year after recording 12 sacks as a defensive end at Princeton. He may kick outside to a linebacker spot in the Chiefs’ 3-4 front or he could be asked to get bigger to put himself into the mix at defensive end.

Signability!

would seem we need to take care of brandon albert's $9.8M cap number before we can sign em all, particular 1.1 bigfish79

No, we have enough room.

Good thread.

Actuwlly we need about 2 mil more to sign everyone.

Either sign Albert long term which will eventually happen or cut some players.

This is untrue.

No

Well isnt our cap space around 4.6 mil.

I can't wait for the Chiefs to have a third and short so I can yell for them to add more Kush'in to the pushin'.

theres a rookie reserve you peckers we can sign them all.

You really need to stop posting. You sound like a broken record. Hootie is starting to look like a better poster than you.

Reid says B Albert will in on Monday and he will be LT while Eric starts off at right.

Reid also said Fisher blew them away at playing RT today.
