How are our 2023 rookies doing?
2023 Chiefs Draft Class

Felix Anudike-Uzomah Kansas State · DE
Rashee Rice SMU · WR
Wanya Morris Oklahoma · OL
Chamarri Conner Virginia Tech · DB
BJ Thompson Stephen F. Austin · DE
Keondre Coburn Texas · DT
Nic Jones Ball State · CB

How have they done? Apart from Rashee Rice (really impressed) and a few FAU tackles I haven't really noticed any of the other rookies. Admittedly, I'm not the most observant person when it comes to O-linemen and D-linemen. I'm wanting to know how you all think they're doing because I don't have a clue.

DE Felix Anudike-Uzomah is showing all kinds of Karlaftis-esque growth. He looks nimble, powerful, with good athleticism. He's in a position right now where he is behind veterans and can take his development at a steady pace, rather than just spamming snaps like Karlaftis had to. I remain high on FAU.

WR Rashee Rice is every bit the Pro Bowl caliber talent I thought he'd be. If anything, the Chiefs need to continue the practice of having Mahomes throw it around with draft prospects, because if the rumors of Mahomes saying Rice was like "Quentin Johnson, but better" then you're going to need to continue to roll with that talent.

OT Wanya Morris looked not super great in preseason, but he has every element you need to succeed in the Andy Heck system. Time will tell if that's what ends up happening, but he hasn't seen any serious playing time yet.

S Chamarri Conner looks to be the hyper-aggressive box safety that Spags covets, but is likely a role player longterm.

DE BJ Thompson shouldn't be judged just yet, but he's just going to need another offseason in an NFL strength and conditioning program before we can even judge what he's capable of. This season is for working on technique and learning the defense. This offseason will be about getting his body up to NFL caliber. And then we can begin the judging.

DT Keondre Coburn looked good to me in the preseason, and got a few snaps in the Lions game prior to Jones returning. He needs more time, but I was encouraged by what I saw. I think it was a poor decision for the Chiefs to cut him, and I'm sad he's a Bronco.

CB Nic Jones got really good reviews in training camp, and I think he has the upside to be an eventual starting-caliber talent at that coveted slot position -- too bad for him, an All Pro corner is already manning that spot. I imagine he'll peter around on special teams this year before showing what he's worth next training camp.

I can see Rice becoming Elite and we get to watch his growth. He can be our number 1 by next season if not by the playoffs.

FAU - has flashed and most importantly looked decent against the run which was the question. V optimistic

Rice - Excellent

Morris - ?

Connor - Didn't like the pick but hasn't looked out of place in the snaps I've seen.

Thompson - Needs about 3 years to fill out. Who knows I guess but he's probably inactive the whole year.

Coburn - Loved the pick and thought he flashed in that first game. Bummed we let him go, think it was a mistake.

Jones - ?

Who did he jump, though? Seriously.

He jumped Niang. That's not nothing, I suppose, but, yikes.

If Donovan Smith went down, I think it's far more likely you slide Taylor over and plug in Wanya at RT.

So far its been depth minus Rashee Rice, who looks awesome. Thats all we've really needed thus far. The team looks really good.

Felix got a handful of reps against the Chargers and even though he didn’t get any sacks, I thought he looked like he was getting off the ball quickly when I watched him.

They thought they would keep him on the practice squad when they brought Charlie O back... Denver is desperate...

Smith went out Sunday for a couple of plays and Wayna came in and looked serviceable.

TBH if Rice continues his trajectory I don't care much about the rest in the class. Rice as a solid WR+ Kelce + Pacheco gives Mahomes more than enough with a top 10 defense. A super bowl puts this franchise in history as a dynasty
