KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Seven draft picks down, leaving two to go.
The Chiefs agreed to terms with wide receiver Chris Conley, a source familiar with the transaction confirmed Wednesday with ChiefsDigest.com. The source spoke on the condition of anonymity because the Chiefs have not announced the signing.
Financial terms were not disclosed.
Terez Paylor of The Kansas City Star was the first to report the signing.
The Chiefs selected the 6-3, 205-pound Conley out of Georgia as the first of two third-round picks (76th overall).
Conley’s signing leaves former Washington cornerback Marcus Peters and former Oregon State cornerback Steven Nelson as unsigned. The Chiefs selected Peters in the first round (18th overall) and Nelson in the third round 12 picks after Conley.
The Chiefs earlier in the week signed the following rookies from the 2015 draft class: Offensive lineman Mitch Morse; inside linebackers Rakim Wilson and D.J. Alexander; tight end James O’Shaughnessy; defensive lineman Rakeem Nunez-Roches and wide receiver Da’Ron Brown.
The Chiefs are scheduled to hold rookie minicamp Saturday through Monday.
