With the No. 76 overall pick in the 2015 NFL Draft, the Kansas City Chiefs selected wide receiver Chris Conley of Georgia. Conley has been a four-year contributor at Georgia, though his production hasn't been anywhere near some of the top receivers in this year's draft.

In four seasons with the Bulldogs, Conley caught 76 passes for 1,938 yards and 20 touchdowns. He had 36 receptions for 657 yards and two touchdowns in 2014, which was solid but he caught four fewer touchdowns than he did in 2013. He did lead Georgia in receiving yards in 2014, and would have had a bigger season in 2013 if he didn’t miss two games with an ankle sprain.
Conley was one of the top performers at the NFL Scouting Combine in February. He ran the 40-yard dash in a blistering 4.35 seconds, put up 18 reps on the bench press (among the best at his position), posted a 45-inch vertical leap and 139-inch broad jump. All of those times placed him near the top of the pile among receivers, and he posted times of 7.06 seconds in the 3-cone drill, 4.30 seconds in the 20-yard shuttle and 11.65 seconds in the 60-yard shuttle.
