Scouts missed on him because they were concerned his game wouldn't translate to the NFL because he played for Toledo in the MAC.
Fortunately for Chiefs fans, those scouts missed on him.

That's 138 yards/game in college (non power 5 no less). And 179 yards/game in the NFL. Almost 30% more yards against significantly better competition isn't really applicable from my perspective.
I mean it could be. Reid's scheme is almost certainly better than what he had in college, his OL could be a lot better than at Toledo and he has gotten some really nice downfield blocking from the 3 games. I've also read that Toledos S&C program may not be so good, so he may be physically better now.
All that may be the case but a 30% increase from college is not likely to be sustainable IMO. I hope to hell it is because looking at the offense it needs to be there, but I wouldn't be surprised if he cools off some.
Hopefully he's our Levian Bell story.
