Kansas City Chiefs Draft Profile: Karl Joseph

Below is Karl Joseph’s game against Oklahoma. Below the video I’ve got minute markings for specific plays to highlight his play. Normally I would insert gifs of the plays but I couldn’t get the gif creator to work this week. I highly recommend watching the first two minutes just to get a feel for how versatile he is. While he only makes one play he lines up all over the field in just the first handful of plays.

1:06 – he lays out a WR and breaks up the pass
3:27 – man coverage in the slot, runs stride for stride with the WR
4:29 – lowers shoulder and drops the RB
6:43 – Goes up and intercepts a pass (poor decision by QB)
7:08 – Comes off the edge and sacks the QB

Here is Joseph’s game against Georgia Southern. Once again I’ve listed some plays that highlight his skills below the video.

4:50 – Horrible throw by QB but good ball tracking skills on interception
5:36 – Another horrible throw but impressive body control to pick off a ball thrown behind him
7:41 – Jumps the route for one more interception (not a horrible throw this time)

Finally, here is Karl Joseph against Maryland. I’ve listed two more plays to show off his game.

1:38 – on fourth and one Joseph closes all the way from his safety spot to stop run for a loss
6:32 – great man to man coverage down the field on the RB for a leaping interception

So what do you think Addicts? If Karl Joseph is healthy would you be okay with the Chiefs drafting him in the first round? If he falls to them in the second round I can’t imagine anyone would have a problem with KC taking him there. I’d love to hear what you think of Joseph in the comments below.

As always, thanks for reading and GO CHIEFS!!!!!!
