Kansas City needs plenty of help on defense.

Ideally, they’d want it to start in the secondary but sometimes the board doesn’t fall that way. So instead they decide to further beef up their front. Chris Jones is an emerging star for them. Now they make the move to get him a wingman.

Jerry Tillery is evolving into a genuine force at Notre Dame. The 6’6 monster is almost impossible to move on the ground and has significantly improved in his ability to get after the quarterback.

Teams will have a hard time getting anything done in the trenches with him around.
