Very athletic tackle, even more protection for 15.
Great pick
Andy Reid has a hard on for BYU talent
Isn’t this the guy ~~singer~~ everyone thought we’d take in the first round?
Trading with all of our enemies like the schoolyard bully taking their lunch money!

Never can go wrong with a big ass samoan. Let’s go!
Good pick by the Chiefs. Kingsley is really raw but he is an insane athletic talent to compete with Wanya Morris for the starting OT spot opposite of Jawaan Taylor. If Kingsley isn’t ready to play out of the gate, we have Wanya Morris up on deck.
After Kingsley, there would have been a major dropoff in OT talent so he was the last OT in that second tier of OT prospects this draft.
We’re winning this draft big time. Everybody knows it. No one can honestly deny it.
Curious why we felt the need to trade up one spot. Interesting.
6’5” 320ish lbs
Hell yeah.
At this point I expect us to trade with the Ravens next. Amazing value
I dont know this guy, but I’ll assume he’s a solid pick.
Sorry Wanya, this is The End of the Road.
He’s going to develop really well. Good pick up. Absolute mauler
like the pick but what did we trade to move up 1 spot?
Can somebody explain to me WTF is up with reading down 1 place?
I wanted him in the first this is outstanding value. Crazy athlete for his size and excellent in pass pro huge upside
As a BYU alum I am happy.
Ravens fan coming in peace. As a BYU alumn please take care of the kid. He is a stud and a half. I really wanted him to go with Baltimore but it was not meant to be. Going to KC makes sense for him plus Andy Reid loves some byu alumni. Good luck chiefs kingdom, you’ll love him.
Soooo we’re convinced they were taking him? We gave up 37 spots to move up 1 spot. Do I have this right?

**STRENGTHS**: Dense body type with above-average length, hand size and overall mass … displays nimble footwork out of his stance to gain ground and reach his pass-set landmarks … occasionally gives up initial positioning before settling and dropping anchor … eager brawler with his hands and his boxing background shows with his on-field punch … strong run blocker at the point of attack to mash defenders in confined spaces … looks to wash defenders toward the opposite sideline and delivers more pancakes than Denny’s … controlled mover with the range for long/downfield pulls or to lead up through holes … has no trouble picking off linebackers at the second level … aggressive block finisher and plays crabby … voted a captain as a sophomore in 2023 … offers position versatility with double-digit starts at both left tackle and right tackle at BYU.
**WEAKNESSES**: Plays with knee bend but inconsistent pad level is a persistent issue … hands don’t always play on schedule, and his placemen t must improve to control the point of attack … frequently caught leaning and needs to be more conscientious of his steps as a run blocker and with his pass-set depth (see 2023 Texas tape) … rushers can cross his face and win inside … needs to use better sink in his recoveries and redirect to easier access his powe r sources … inconsistent awareness deciphering blitzes and pre-snap motion … appeared to get fatigued against tougher competition on the schedule (NFL scout: “I just don’t think he’s ready . Hopefully, he’s not thrown to the wolves right away.”) … still very young and patience will be required as he acclimates himself to the pro level.
**SUMMARY**: A two-year starter at BYU, Suamataia lined up at left tackle this past season in offensive coordinator Aaron Roderick’s RPO offense, which utilizes wide- and mid-zone schemes. Highly recruited, he had a short stint at Oregon before feeling “more comfortable” closer to home with BYU, where he played both tackle spots. His 1,342 offensive snaps in college were evenly split between left tackle (48.8 percent) and right tackle (51.2 perce nt). Suamataia played in an offense that wanted to run the ball downhill, and he was happy to oblige, displaying range and an initial pop as a drive blocker. He is nimble in pass protection with the strength to lock down rushers, but his timing, technique and recognition skills remain immature. Overall, Suamataia is still very young and lacks refinement in several areas, but his blend of size, mobility and core power are the foundation of a scheme-diverse NFL starter. He will require a patient coaching staff who can ease his transition to the pro level.
GRADE: 2nd Round (No. 40 overall)
Great pick. Kingsley has been my guy at tackle throughout (since my first mock in November). Outstanding athlete. He’s got the size and length. Great natural strength. And just insane quickness for a man his size with movement skills in space. Just a perfect scheme fit for Andy Reid with high end left tackle upside. He’s pretty young and has only played 2 years which explains some of the lack of refinement. He needs polish but oozes upside. Former 5 star with NFL bloodlines (relative of Penei Sewell). Love the pick.
Awesome pick. He’s projected to the chiefs at 32 many times and got him at 63. He won’t be the day 1 guy but he’s got all the tools to be a stud.
O line and defense depth from here on out. WE GOOOOOD ON OFFENSE!!!!

What was the trade?
edit: 211 for 173
This guy is a real boom/bust pick with a sky high ceiling, absolutely love it!
I’m in the middle of a Tornado warning in Des Moines (there is a confirmed tornado in the suburbs). Thanks for keeping me updated.
Got 2 immediate needs sorted out: WR and LT. Let’s try to trade up so we can get the best available player.
Also, pick some easier names to pronounce for Jamaal 🤣
Draft a big success Worthy first now him
