Chiefs land offensive firepower with Thorpe pick in draft
Kansas City shifted focus to offense on day two by taking Florida State receiver Craphonso Thorpe with their first second round selection. The Chiefs also grabbed Alphonso Hodge, Will Svitek, Khari Long, James Kilian, and Jeremy Parquet while adding Pro Bowl cornerback Patrick Surtain in a pre-draft trade. Amid praise for the strategy, GM Carl Peterson emphasized turning draft gains into September success as Derrick Johnson fell to the first round and punter Justin Colquitt was added as a compensatory pick. Thorpe, a two-time fastest- player, had 40 catches for 496 yards and two touchdowns as a senior.
