6th-Round Choice: WR Quinten Lawrence/McNeese State

Quinten Lawrence/McNeese State/WR

  • HT: 6-0
  • WT: 184 pounds
  • Born: September 21, 1984
  • High School: Carencro High School, Louisiana

2008 season: Started the first five games, but then suffered a leg injury that ended his season. Lawrence finished with 12 catches for 209 yards and a touchdown. He also returned a punt for a touchdown and played some defensive back as well.

2007: Started all 12 games. He was second-team All-Southland Conference. Lawrence caught 31 passes for 645 yards and six TDs. He also returned seven kickoffs for 106 yards.

2006: Started all 12 games. He was selected the team’s MVP and a honorable mention All-Southland Conference. He ran the ball seven times for 97 yards and caught 29 passes for 479 yards and two TDs.

2005: Played in nine games and started five at wide receiver. He caught 27 passes for 572 yards and sixTDs. He also returned seven kickoffs for 167 yards.

Overall Analysis: Lawrence is very fast with sub 4.3-second speed in the 40-yard dash. Scouts dinged him for his thin frame and lack of strength. Although he did not do much returning in college, he has skills for that with speed and his tendency to run straight ahead, not sideways. Good hands and was a reliable receiver over his time. Some teams projected him as a possible CB because of his speed. Ran track at McNeese, turning in a personal beset 10.49 in the 100 meters

    Hopefully he’s fully recovered. Again, not the most exciting pick, but hopefully he’s a good kid that will come in and work hard and make a difference. Maybe he’s a return man? Anyone have a 40 time on this kid?

    I haven’t been able to find anything on this guy!

    Watch his highlight video and say he’s not exciting:

    Makes you wonder why the Raiders didn’t take him in the 1st or 2nd.

    Thanks for the link Dave! He looks fast, that’s for certain. At this point in the draft, they’re drafting for upside I’d imagine.

    Perhaps he could be our kick returner. Also, I just saw where Leroy Hill from Seattle had the franchise tag dropped and is now a free agent. Is he someone we should pursue? Would he fit in a 3-4? I don’t know much about him except he would be expensive. We do have the cap space.

    This kid is everything Kevin Robinson was not. He is the defense stretcher they were looking for provided he can make the transition to the big leagues.

    God I wish Herm could pick em like this!!I have some SERIOUS HC envy going on here!!


  • April 26, 2009  - anonymous says:

    And there’s the Back we needed. Only time will tell…….


  • April 26, 2009  - Josh says:

    In all seriousness this has been a total bust of a draft. Pioli has really disappointed me and I also have no confidence in Haley after listening to him. This will be the worst season in Chiefs history.

    dave
    good job on the link that was very informative even rin tin tin thinks he looks good WOW!


  • April 26, 2009  - Dave says:

    I too think Herm Edwards should still be KC Chiefs Head Coach. Haley and Pioli have shown me nothing to date.

    And I’m certain that isn’t Rin Tin Tin. He wouldn’t write something so stupid like that ‘imposter’ did. Rin is one of the smartest and most educated Chiefs fans I’ve ever read.

    well we can defenetly rule you out as a smart 1 saying things like that
