Miami drafts former KU tackle
By Jerry Schmidt
Kansan sportswriter
Former Kansas tackle Christopher Perez was drafted by the Miami Dolphins yesterday in the fifth round of the National Football League draft.
Perez, a four-year starter for the
team was the 19th player taken
in the inaugural season.
"I feel great and I am overjoyed," said Perez, a 6-foot-5, 28-pound tackle. "It has been a long day and I'm sure I will sleep well tonight."
He said he had no idea Miami would draft him.
Perez said Miami coach Don Shula called him to see how Perez's knee was progressing. He injured his knee during the first quarter of the Hula Bowl all-star game on Jan. 11.
"They asked about the condition of my knee and I told them my knee feels great," he said by telephone from his Chicago home.
Perez said a team like Miami fits his style of blocking.
"They're not a real strong running team," he said. "The type of run blocking they do is not a straight ahead style. I feel I have the ability as a pass blocker for their system."
Perez said he looked forward to
working with Dolphins' All-For-tackle
basketball team.
The Kansas City Chiefs used their first two draft picks yesterday to shore up what most fans feel are their greatest needs — defensive back and quarterback.
Choosing 20th in the first round of the draft, the Chiefs opted for Tennessee safety Dale Carter, a first team all-American who is also an accomplished kick returner.
Then a trade with Dallas moved them up in the second round to grab Matt Blundin, a 6-foot-2, 228-pound
Virginia quarterback who doubled as a basketball player for the Cavaliers and figures to be a two- or three-year quarterback project.
In the fourth round, Kansas City opted for Mike Evans, a hulking defensive tackle from Michigan. The Chiefs had no picks in the fifth and final round yesterday.
The Chiefs gave the Cowboys their second- and third-round choices to position themselves for Blundin, who set an NCAA record by going the entire regular season last year without an interception.
The Indianapolis Colts had the first two picks in the draft and selected Washington tackle Steve Emtman with the first pick and Texas A&M linebacker Quentin Coryatt with the second.
