KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- When the Kansas City Chiefs looked at Josh Simmons' tape from last season at Ohio State, they didn't just see in their opinion the best offensive tackle available in the draft.
They saw what they considered to be one of the better tackle prospects in several years.
"In terms of years past, I would say Josh, when he was healthy last year, his tape would be one of the better ones in the last few years," said Ryne Nutt, the Chiefs director of player personnel. "He kind of reminds me of Christian Darrisaw, who's done really well for the Vikings. He's got a little bit of [Rashawn Slater] in him for the Chargers.''
