Of the seven selections the Kansas City Chiefs made in last weekend’s NFL Draft, wide receiver Rashee Rice may be the most important for judging the overall performance of general manager Brett Veach.
The Chiefs traded up in the second round to select the SMU product with the 55th overall selection.
At over 6 feet tall, Rice is taller than most of Kansas City’s other wide receivers — yet his college film shows the yards-after-the-catch abilities more typical of the smaller, speedier options. Rice is proud of combining both skill sets at the position.
