2017 NFL Mock Draft: Wild Trade Throws Top 10 Out of Whack

124. The Kansas City Chiefs defense has long been a strength for the team but in 2016 they weren’t the usual dominant unit they’ve been. Part of the problem was their pass coverage. The loss of Sean Smith at cornerback loomed pretty large for them in the secondary, putting more pressure on Marcus Peters. A 3-4 defense is at its best when it has two cover corners on the outside who can play man coverage. Getting that back is the smart play. <p>What better way to do it than grabbing another Washington corner. Sidney Jones was teammates with Peters and now has become a top quality corner in his own right. Good size and length. Athletic with decent speed and an ability to play on the boundary without help over the top. His ball skills aren’t where Peters’ was coming out of school but they’re still solid. Their similar styles make his transition to K.C. an easy one to envision.</p>. CB. Washington. Sidney Jones . 27. player
