177. Lamical Perine | RB | Florida

Perine was actually my fifth-round option for the Chiefs in my article series choosing a player at a certain position in each round of the draft. Here is what I had to say about him there.

At 5-11 and 216 pounds, Perine fits the mold of the prototypical Chiefs running back. He has good field vision to go with a great combination of patience, burst, and contact balance. He also does a great job getting tough yards in the red zone. He’s proven to be a really good pass-catcher, which should appeal to Kansas City. In 2019, he caught 40 passes for 262 yards and five touchdowns. Prior to that season, he’d only caught 28 passes in his career.
