BYU Players

Kingsley Suamataia (2nd Round, Chiefs): Most analyses have Kingsley as a high-upside pick with great qualities who needs some work/polish. Falling to the late second fits that, but the Chiefs are a great landing spot. Strong OL (Thuney, Humphrey, Taylor) but no established LT. Wanya Morris was taken in the 3rd last year and started the last few games but is likely best suited as a swing tackle. Kingsley may or may not start day 1, but it won't be long.

Kedon Slovis (UDFA, Colts): This is a pretty good landing spot. Obviously Anthony Richardson is the clear starter...but there's not much behind him. They signed Flacco as a steady backup and he's the clear #2, but will be washed any day now.  The third-stringer is Sam Ehlinger who hasn't shown much in three years. If Slovis beats out Ehlinger for the QB3 job, he'll have potential to move up to QB2 with Flacco getting even older. And that's a path to sticking around for a while

Aidan Robbins (UDFA, Browns): After good landing spots for the first two, this is a tougher landing spot for Robbins as the Browns have good backfield depth and versatility.  Chubb (when healthy) has been one of the best backs in the NFL and Jerome Ford has shown himself capable of taking a lead role. Nyheim Hines is one of the best pass-catching RBs and excellent on special teams and as a returner (which takes on more importance this year).  D'Onta Foreman has been a lead back and has a similar skill set as Robbins, being a big power back. And the Browns ALSO traded for Pierre Strong, who also has a similar style (and played well in limited snaps each of his first two seasons). There's some serious injury concerns (Chubb is coming off a torn ACL, Hines missed last season after a JetSki accident) and so I see why the Browns wanted to take a flier on someone...but if everyone is recovered, it'll be hard to be in the top 4 here.

Isaac Rex (UDFA, Lions): If nothing else, the Lions have shown themselves a solid job of TE talent with TJ Hockenson and Sam La Porta. That also means they're set at starter for that position....but the backups are a bunch of unknowns.  Most teams carry 3 TE, with at least one of them being a blocking TE...which is not Rex. But the second receiving TE spot is wide open.  Hard part of that he's appx 25 (based on graduation date) which means he's competing with guys he's age that already have 2 or 3 years NFL experience. It's still a long shot (he's an UDFA after all), but there's opportunity here

Max Tooley (UDFA, Texans): The Texans have solid starting LB but most linebackers on NFL rosters are there as special teams contributors. That makes it tough to assess landing spots since I don't know how strong the current Texans LB are on ST.  Or how good Tooley is there 

Ryan Rehkow (UDFA, Chiefs): Honestly, I'm surprised Rehkow wasn't drafted ... And even more surprised this is where he ended up. No team is carrying more than one punter and the Chiefs just signed Matt Araiza (aka 'the Punt God').  Araiza was a highly drafted punter in 2022 and then released after a gang rape allegation....that was eventually dismissed as meritless. He recently signed with KC but hasn't played in two years. He's likely the favorite over Rehkow, but Rehkow should land somewhere. Kansas City is just not the most likely spot
