Chiefs draft class features spectacular player in RB Kareem Hunt

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Kansas City Chiefs received an uneven performance from their draft class as a whole. Running back Kareem Hunt, picked in the third round, was spectacular for much of the season and is a strong candidate for offensive rookie of the year. But the Chiefs' other draft picks, including first-round quarterback Patrick Mahomes II, played little.
