Not gonna lie I did. What a great ending to the night. There isn't a more deserving player!

So many players made huge impact on this team, but when you watch the tape, CEH was so special. To KC? Bye AFC.

I was watching the Draft Tracker here in Manila and could not believe his name came up! They had some good comments!

I was half asleep. I popped up when I heard his name called. Watched for 2-3 minutes. Told the wife I was going to sleep now and she said you were sleeping until you heard him get picked.

I told my brother and nephew before the pick (I also knew the Ravens would pick Queen when the Seahawks passed on him), that even if Reid doesn't pick Fulton, he knows what he's doing. I then gave a sly smile and seconds later he picked Helaire.

Had a feeling he'd creep into the first round earlier this week when I kept reading about him being one of the most talked about players. The Dolphins skipping on Swift pretty much sealed the deal. I think teams liked Helaire over the other backs, and that if KC didn't go DB, they'd go RB.

Yea I was saying his name to myself under my breath in anticipation. When his name was call I did my best Tiger Woods fist pump. Scared my wife

I'm so happy for that kid. Tons of people including me, were calling for the freshman to get more touches early on, but Clyde shut us up with the quickness. He and Justin Jefferson were so fun to watch this year. So many others as well.

Pencil them in for the Super Bowl, now. Everyone else is playing for second place.

I was standing up getting ready to turn the TV off and go to bed. I called it about a minute before the pick, but didn't believe they would actually do it. Had to try and contain my excitement because the wife and kids were asleep. What a great moment for CEH!

Easily, the most satisfying pick of the night.

When KC was on the clock, I was talking on the phone to my mom (who, after watching her first full Tiger season, was watching her first full NFL draft) and I told her I greedily just wanted a 5th Tiger picked in the first round, thinking Delpit or Fulton. I jumped up & screamed "YES!!!" when CEH was picked. Mom was so happy. CEH was her favorite player behing Burrow.

Perfect fit for his skills on a Super Bowl team, and after always being doubted, he is the first & only RB taken on Day One. What a story.

Yep! He's going to absolutely thrive in that offense too. Perfect spot for him was either there or NOLA.

I love that guy. He epitomizes the mantra of anything being possible if you put in the work.

Gotta feel happy for the kid. He's gotta be on Cloud 9 right now. The Chiefs proved why they're an elite organization: this is a home run pick.
