Schwinnnngggg!

LOVE IT!!!!!!

I like this pick a Lott!!!

GOATED PICK. THIS GUY IS GOING TO WRECK SHIT NEXT TO CJ

VEACH IS HAVING A ****ING DRAFT BOYS

Chris Jones job just got a lot easier. Good pick

He’s a Chief = HOF

Jizz in the ear

18.9 percent pass-rush win rate this past season.

That'll play.

Seems like he didn’t play much, so must have impressive measurables.

Is this a day one contributor with that little experience? Someone fill me in.

At least we have something to discuss besides Josh Simmons' injury history

He has a horse cock that can fill you ALL the way in

Eagles aren't ****ing around with their defense

HOFer

Tennessee utilized a rotational basis. Plus, he's more of a pass-rusher than a run-stopper. I can see him being utilized on 3rd downs from the interior.

I wonder if we wanted the A&M kid that went right before... we used the full clock.

This guy is a much much better version of Wharton. He is gonna be so good here. I love this pick

projected as a third or fourth rounder - seems like a bit of a reach? Someone talk me into this pick.

Veach special

https://scontent-ord5-2.xx.fbcdn.net...rw&oe=681209E5

18.9% pass rush win rate. There you go.

WTF is this shit? This is the Omar Norman-Lott threat go suck Eagles dick somewhere else.

Wow, that doesn’t seem like a very Veach-y pick.

Seems like a lot of you like him, as does Veach, so I’ll roll with it.

Uh it was literally right next to round 3. You can't be ****ing serious

Oh **** you, Veach!


Naw, I'm kidding. He was my target at DT in the second.

Me in March:

Just a real nice little interior rusher. A slightly more stout version of Wharton.

that guy is a silky smooth athlete

:facepalm:

look at that arm length and hand size with his height. no wonder why he wins so ****ing much as a pass rusher dude is playing with cheats on.

Rotational player for Tennessee and not very athletic based on RAS score. Seems like a good rotational DT could be available in 3rd or 4th round. Maybe the Bears took our guy just in front of us and we picked solely on need. I am comforted that some of you think this is a good pick. Seems like a reach for a need.

All our draft picks are guys who would’ve gone in the next round, hats what happens when you draft in the 30s every year

Except for our next pick in the 3rd round (thanks to Tennessee)

Omar Norman-Lott

Omar Norman-Lott

He sounds like a Batman villain, me likey

I think the better question is, is a guy who has a 18.9% win percentage despite logging just 225 snaps as a rotational lineman, in the SEC, a reach?

Plus, the Chiefs were picking at end of 2nd round. Sometimes you have to treat end of the rounds as a beginning of a new round.

Analysis from different sources, don’t shoot the messenger:

ESPN:
“Pre-draft analysis:

Norman-Lott explodes off the ball, gets under offensive linemen and drives them into the backfield. He is long and strong enough to press blockers with his frame, and he rarely stays blocked. He gets into gaps to disrupt plays, and he tracks the ball well before chasing it down with good effort. Norman-Lott also gets off the ball well, and he always attacks the outside shoulder of the offensive guard as a pass rusher. Maintaining violent hands, he can squeeze the pocket and shed at the top of his rush as a bull rusher. -- Steve Muench

Post-Draft Analysis
I was the lowest on Norman-Lott of our group of analysts, but the defensive tackle board has really been wiped out throughout the opening two rounds. Kansas City needed to identify a tackle who can play next to Chris Jones -- and maybe even serve as his eventual replacement. Norman-Lott's high potential is backed by his explosive quickness and overall athletic tools. He'll get to learn how to be more consistent alongside one of the best defensive tackles in the league. -- Matt Miller”

The Athletic:
“ 63. Kansas City Chiefs: Omarr Norman-Lott, DT, Tennessee

Norman-Lott is this draft’s ultimate boom-or-bust defensive lineman. He flashes plenty of athletic ability and potential to make big plays (combined 9.5 sacks the last two seasons), but he make a single start in 2024 and averaged just 17.3 snaps per game. Based on athletic ability, Norman-Lott could start for a decade; based on precedent, he could be out of the league in three years. This is a little high for that type of risk.”

Walter football:
“ Kansas City Chiefs: Omar Norman-Lott, DT, Tennessee – B+ Grade
The Chiefs need offensive line more than anything, but they also had to find a defensive tackle to play next to Chris Jones. Omar Norman-Lott could be a quality starter. He’s a smaller defensive tackle, but gets good pressure on the quarterback. He makes sense at the bottom of Round 2.”

I was thinking that we're about to see a Lott of Norman conquest along the line.

Bit of a stretch though.

Maybe he got home 19% because he was well rested. I'd rather have that percentage from a starter.

I get it. I just hope we find some sleepers in the 5th and 7th rounds like we did with Trey Smith or Jaylon Watson. Hard to get excited about a rotational guy at the end of the second round. We have had plenty of rotational guys that have been pretty good, but only Wharton blossomed into someone who was a talented starter. I hope I am wrong and he turns out to be the next Chris Jones.

Ok gimme a 4.3 running back with solid hands next, Brett

lol imagine thinking you can be picky with a PRWR that good. At the bottom of the 2nd no less.

Wharton was a fine player, but he didn't do well much in terms of winning his pass rush. Wharton was only a 10.5% and he was considered a rotational guy as well. I think the Chiefs got an upgrade in all aspects with a younger player at a better value than Wharton got on his contract at a new team.

Haven’t watched a down, but has a build like Breeland Speaks.

Anyway

LMAO What's up with all the salty noobs lately?

The Chiefs lost the Super Bowl.

If Veach doesn't pick their favorite player we're DOOMED.

Some salty vets on here too.

I really hope they let this guy play next to Jones right away on passing downs. It will absolutely be a problem.

Both these two new DL fit great with the loop stunt twist game that they run. Different size and styles playing pick n roll or more like pick and smack. Fun highlights on this guy

Good thing we're not going to ask this guy to be an edge rusher in a 3-4 defense!

Dumbass.

Know absolutely nothing about him. I don’t really watch college football. I did see that he's only ever started 5 games in his life. Why?

Not sure. You should check him out during training camp and find out why.

Everyone from training camp told me Kingsley Sumatataiaiaiaiia was the next Willie Roaf. Even tricked the coaches.

Just always alot to be learned there especially for fans in cargo shorts, goatees and camaros.

Lol no they didn't.

People posted his 1v1 drills on here and he didn't look good in those.

All people said was he was getting the starter's snaps.

When you go to training camp and meticulously take notes for days. How do you get them to Andy and Veach? These fans that show up really know their stuff. It would be a shame if this talent was underutilized.

Lmao Speaks was insanely slow off the ball this guy was drafted because he's an interior rusher with a quick step. You're ****ing stupid

In the SEC too.

Thank f*** for that, some DT help. Nice pick

Him not being a full time starter in college is a question mark but the talent is definitely there and that pass rush win rate looks nice

Got to think they will given our lack of alternatives.

I don't know I'm as high on him as some, but we desperately needed a DT, and he looked the best left at that point. Definite upgrade on Wharton too. Got to be pretty happy with the pick.

Improvement at the front of this defense (ONL, Tillery), improvement on the back end (Fulton). This defense was already very good last year, but it could be absolutely killer in 2025

Well duh! Every player the Chiefs draft will automatically be a future HOFer. :D

Bloke is doing his first press interview at the mall LMAO

He's wasting no time in spending his money.

I haven't listened to all of the interviews, but I like how all of these young guys are well-spoken and team players. "I'm going to come in and do whatever is asked of me, etc, etc."

We don't draft any Sanders "I'm going to get mine" types.

I like Lot as a rotational piece, but what was wrong with Darius Alexander here? Even though he played 3-tech mainly, he could still play the other positions if needed. I'm guessing Lot is more of a Spags type, but will he ever be a full-time starter?

Clearly, the Chiefs wanted to get a guy who could get after the quarterback with this one. Felt like a rather substantial reach, but that's whatever at this point. Farmer is still on the board headed into day 3, so they obviously had a much higher ranking on Lott. Like the player, concerned about him holding up against the run, and there is a development runway.

Not what I was expecting, but I see the fit.

Not sure he ever is much more than what he is currently, but that can be a productive player, too.

How is this dude a “definite upgrade” on Wharton? Wharton got 6.5 sacks last year and landed a $54M contract. ONL might be a fine player one day but I think we’re expecting too much if we think he’s going to be an upgrade compared to Wharton in year 1. It usually takes these defensive linemen a couple years of development anyway.

Getting Rakeem Nunez-Roches vibes.

Chris Jones struggled against the run for years.

I mentioned Dre'mont Jones as a guy here reminded me of a bit last week.

And Jones never really did get a ton better. But he's had a nice NFL career being exactly the guy he always was.
