27. Kansas City Chiefs

124. When one has the coaching staff like Kansas City does, they can afford to take calculated risks on great athletes. It was true for Eric Fisher and again for Dee Ford. Something to keep in mind about this off-season is the unknown status of star safety Eric Berry. The Chiefs have a problematic salary cap situation, which could mean they might lose him to free agency unless some serious work is done before March. <p>Regardless, Jabrill Peppers is the sort of athletic specimen that is worth the risk. He’s already a solid box safety who can tackle and create pressure with the blitz. He’ll also be yet another special teams weapon for Dave Toub. His greatest upside comes in coverage. His athleticism and speed makes it possible but what he needs to learn is how to hone his instincts for tracking the football and making a play on it. If he ever does, the Chiefs have their Berry heir.</p>. S. Michigan. Jabrill Peppers . 27. player
