WATCH: Chiefs rookie RB Isiah Pacheco’s draft week vlog

Kansas City Chiefs rookie RB Isiah Pacheco provided a snapshot into what the week of the 2022 NFL draft looked like for him and his family.

Pacheco shared a vlog (video blog) on his YouTube channel that lifted the veil on the days leading up to the draft through his seventh-round selection by the Chiefs. He starts off his video, by explaining the anxiousness leading up to the draft. Ironically, he’d just got off a zoom call with a scout from Kansas City’s AFC West rival, the Los Angeles Chargers.

Fast forward to the draft and we get to see a glimpse of what those three days were like for Pacheco. He’d already provided an idea of what he was up to while speaking to reporters at rookie minicamp.

“Draft night, I went for two days,” Pacheco told reporters at rookie minicamp. “I was thinking more so like late third round, but you know it didn’t work out (that way). So I went to the next day, family was there. We were at a place called, ‘Double Eagle.’ It’s kind of a little sports bar where one of my other buddies got drafted. I followed his footsteps, went to the same place and just was waiting for the call.”
