John Dorsey admits that Kareem Hunt is a notch below the top tier of running backs available in this year’s NFL Draft. The Toledo running back has stood in the shadows of Leonard Fournette and Christian McCaffrey all through the pre-draft season, and the Kansas City Chiefs general manager admitted it was the same ranking on the team’s draft board. However, after the top tier, it was Hunt and no one else.
“You could see that where we were positioned at that particular round, we had to go up or else we would have not have gotten that running back, so we decided to go up,” said Dorsey in a press conference to explain the Chiefs picks on day two.
