4a. Benjamin St-Juste, CB, Minnesota
The Kansas City Chiefs found themselves a gem in the fourth round of the 2020 NFL Draft in Louisiana Tech’s L’Jarius Sneed, who had three interceptions and a pair of sacks in just nine games.
He’s got a bright future, but with Bashaud Breeland heading to free agency (again), the Chiefs could look to the depth at corner in the 2020 NFL Draft class and find another gem in the middle rounds.
Here, they go after Benjamin St-Juste, a long 6-foot-2 cornerback who could excel in Steve Spagnuolo’s defense that likes to be aggressive and leave corners on an island.
4b. Aaron Banks, OG, Notre Dame
Continuing the theme of upgrading on the offensive line, the Chiefs cash in on the tremendous depth of this group of big uglies in 2021 with, frankly, another possible plug-and-play starter at the left guard position in Aaron Banks.
Banks would be re-joining Liam Eichenberg in this particular scenario, and while right now he might have more good tape as a run blocker, he is no slouch in pass protection.

The Chiefs have to build in the trenches with this draft class. Thankfully, they have some compensatory selections to expand their class overall and find diamonds in the rough on day three like these two guys.
