This is a massive hole that is filled for the #chiefs. Trent McDuffie is considered by almost everyone as the 3rd best CB in this draft. The first two went off the board at 3 and 4.
The @Chiefs make a big move for a top CB (and my model's #8 overall prospect) in Trent McDuffie, who allowed 3.1 yards/target in 2021 at Washington (best in FBS, min. 30 targets).
Could be a key piece to counter the wealth of receiving talent in the AFC come playoff time!

I too would prefer the guy that has to get all grabby over the one that can cover.

Considering NCAA teams avoided McDuffie like the plague in favor of throwing at Gordon, i'd say he's better.
I like Elam too, mostly because i like tall lanky guys in the perimeter. But there's no denying that elite fluidity that McDuffie has. [Reply]
