Strange draft for the Chiefs. They took an Ivy League running back with their 7th round pick for cripes sake. Justin Miller could end up being the biggest impact guy out of all their picks.

This dude Allen_Bailey grew up on an Island in Georgia, and his family has maintained their way of life since the days of slavery by chowing down on racoon, possom, and armadilo

Bailey tips the scales at 285 pounds, having stuffed his gut during his formative years with just about anything on four feet his family could catch on the tiny island off the coast of Georgia where he was raised. Forty-seven people live in Hog Hammock on Sapelo Island, more than half of whom are related to Bailey.
All are part of the tight-knit Gullah/Geechee community, descendants of slaves admired for preserving their African cultural heritage two centuries after being brought to the United States. Bailey's ancestors were among 400 slaves from West Africa taken to Sapelo Island by a British plantation owner. Some stayed after the Civil War, and they subsisted on a protein-rich diet of deer, boar, marsupials and shellfish.



I like the pick of Ricky Stanzi, although it would have been better if Charlie Weiss was still around. Iowa coach and Pioli are good buddies, and Stanzi will have time to learn, hopefully become a capable backup. In the 7th round they take some guy named Shane Bannon a RB out of Yale...Gil Brandt knew nothing about this guy. He usually knows something about everyone.
