The Kansas City Chiefs are playing like one of the most complete teams in football. Although Marcus Peters is looking like a potential Defensive Player of the Year candidate, the Chiefs could always add some depth at the cornerback position.

Michigan Jourdan Lewis gets overlooked at time because of his 5’11”, 186-pound frame. However, Lewis has the aggressive mindset and tools to play on the outside in the NFL if he needs to. Lewis has the speed and ball skills, but scouts will also love his ability to make tackles in the open field.

If Lewis wound up in Kansas City, he’d be able to come in and immediately be a starting-caliber nick corner. Considering some of the passing offenses in the AFC West, that’s exactly what the Chiefs could use with their first-round pick.
