Before I gave players who had already been in the Chiefs’ system a big advantage with potential for an abbreviated offseason. I still think that will be the case, but until we know more I’m not going to let it alter my decision. After reviewing some tape and thinking about the potential needs in Kansas City, I think at least one of these UDFA receivers will make the roster.

Ffrench is guy who fits what the Chiefs like to do on offense. He can stretch the field deep. He was utilized on jet sweeps. He also has versatility as a kick and punt return specialist, with two kick return touchdowns during his career at Pittsburgh.
