27. player. 124. . Cornerback. Washington. Kevin King

The Kansas City Chiefs have to figure out how to keep their defense dominant after a number of key free-agent departures this offseason.

Part of the solution will be to find another cornerback to pair with standout Marcus Peters.

Washington corner Kevin King fits the bill. He’s tall — 6-foot-3 and 200 pounds — and has solid football instincts, which should translate well over to the pro level.

King could be a bit more physical, which is a must in the AFC West, but playing alongside Peters should give him a good deal of “know how.”
