KANSAS CITY, Mo. - The Chiefs seem to be having no problems signing draft picks.
They inked hometown player Donald Stephenson on Thursday, and how have just one draft choice unsigned. The Chiefs have yet to reach a deal with first round pick Dontari Poe, a nose tackle from Memphis.
Stephenson was a star for Blue Springs High School and Central High School. He transferred to Blue Springs his senior season.
The 6-foot-6, 312-pound Stephenson is an offensive lineman. The third-round pick earned all-Big 12 Honorable Mention by the Associated Press and coaches in 2011 for the Oklahoma Sooners.
