player. 124. <p>There is still plenty of time from now till’ draft day, therefore, I will shoot Sammie Coates up the draft board, putting him at the 18th spot.</p>
<p>Mainly, Coates his here because of the pressing need at receiver in Kansas City, and because of his raw, untapped potential. Coates battled through some inconsistencies last season at Auburn, however, when he is on, he is tough to stop.</p>
<p>The Chiefs desperately need a receiver, as it is the one part missing on what could be a potent offense. Last year, quarterback Alex Smith threw for 18 touchdowns. While he isn’t the type of quarterback that is going to throw for 4,500 yards and 40 touchdowns, he still needs a receiver to throw to, and last season, the Chiefs receivers recorded no touchdowns and caught just 129 of Alex Smith’s 303 completions.</p>
<p>Again, it might be a bit high for Coates, but with plenty of time from now till’ the draft, he will have the opportunity to increase his stock.</p>. Wide Receiver. Aubrun. Sammie Coates. 18
