The Chiefs added Breeland to their cornerback room this week—here’s how it might affect the team’s draft strategy."The Chiefs added veteran cornerback Bashaud Breeland into the mix this week to help add some talent to a position that desperately needs it. Breeland is a solid but unspectacular player. Is Breeland's addition to the roster enough for the Chiefs to ignore the corner position until day two of the NFL Draft? We tackled that question and more on this week's episode of the AP Laboratory. There are still two glaring needs on defense and they are the aforementioned cornerback position also EDGE. The Chiefs had a mass exodus of talent along their defensive front with the release of Justin Houston Nick Allegretti Jersey nfl draft , trading of Dee Ford and the presumed farewell of Allen Bailey (still a free agent).The Chiefs are currently relying on second-year player Breeland Speaks, recently-signed Alex Okafor and the enigmatic Tanoh Kpassagnon. That is, to put it lightly, not enough. This is a strong EDGE class, especially in the first-round range. Recently, there has been a bevy of mock drafts that put Clemson's Clelil Ferrell within striking distance of the Chiefs in a trade-up scenario. Ferrell has the necessary length and density that defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo craves (we learned this from the signing of Okafor and the trade of Ford). He also happens to be an excellent football player. The mystery around his lack of athletic testing at his pro day and the combine has created uncertainty in his market. The Chiefs could be the beneficiary. At cornerback, the Chiefs now have Breeland Super Bowl Nick Allegretti Jersey , Kendall Fuller and Charvarius Ward as the key pieces. The recent add certainly helps the talent pool and you could probably skate by until the second round to add a player. However, it shouldn't preclude them from grabbing a high-ceiling player like Greedy Williams from LSU if the board fell. The bottom lineI don't think the signing of Breeland completely eliminates cornerback from round-one consideration, but they are better positioned at this point than they are at EDGE. I would keep the situation fluid and take (or potentially trade up for) the highest-graded EDGE, cornerback or even interior defensive lineman on the board to help improve the pass rush or coverage. However you slice it, the Chiefs need a difference-maker and their focus should be getting the best defensive difference maker they can.The podcastKC Draft GuideWe’ll have write-ups on Ferrell and every day one and two cornerback and how they’d fit the Chiefs in the first ever edition of the KC Draft Guide, which releases on April 8.We’ll have over 200 prospect write-ups, specifically about how prospects fit the Chiefs.

Here’s a preview of what the page layouts will look like: Football analytics site Pro Football Focus has released its list of the top 50 NFL free agents for 2019, and three Kansas City Chiefs are on it: linebacker Dee Ford, cornerback Steven Nelson and center Mitch Morse.Ford was listed ninth.Nelson was listed 39th.Morse was right behind Nelson at 40th.Six of the top ten players are EDGE defenders — five of them listed before Ford:DeMarcus Lawrence, Dallas Cowboys (1st), Trey Flowers Mecole Hardman Kansas City Chiefs Jerseys , New England Patriots (3rd), Brandon Graham, Philadelphia Eagles (4th), Jadeveon Clowney, Houston Texans (6th) and Frank Clark, Seattle Seahawks (8th).Nelson was the fifth cornerback on the list, behind Ronald Darby Kansas City Chiefs Jerseys 2019 , Eagles (10th), Bryce Callahan, Chicago Bears (23rd), Kareem Jackson, Texans (28th) and Jason McCourty, Patriots (30th).But Morse was listed second only to center Matt Paradis of the Denver Broncos, who came in at 15th.How you feel about this list will probably depend on whether you consider PFF to be a purveyor of smokin’-hot-gospel.If PFF is right that Ford is the sixth-best EDGE rusher available in free agency 2019 Mecole Hardman Kansas City Chiefs , maybe it will be easier to sign him to a team-friendly long-term deal than we imagine. On the other hand, if Morse is indeed the second-best center available in free agency, maybe it makes sense to let him walk allowing Austin Reiter to take his spot.
