In return, they get a 20-26 first round pick at number 29 overall, plus a fifth rounder and sixth rounder that year and a 20-27 third round pick. The Chiefs are shaking things up after missing the playoffs and posting their first losing records since 2012. McDuffy, their 20-22 first round pick, was heading into his fifth year option, but they decided against meeting his contract demands. Meanwhile, the Rams jumped at the chance to fix their week secondary from last season. They view the 25-year-old as a top tier corner with solid stats like three interceptions and plenty of pass breakups. This deal gives the Rams a B-plus grade for adding talent better than most free agents even at a high cost. They still hold the number 13 pick and might tweak their defense to fit him better. For the Chiefs, it's an A-mine-us-move with great value on draft picks.
