Juan Thornhill gives Kansas City Chiefs a versatile ballhawk in secondary

The Kansas City Chiefs have several needs in the secondary at this point of their defensive makeover. The team needs an infusion of young talent in the defensive backfield, and they also simply need more bodies. The team has been linked to cornerbacks and safeties alike, and their newest import in the second round brings them a player who can play either position: Virginia defensive back Juan Thornhill.

Thornhill was the Chiefs pick at No. 63 overall, the second of their two choices in that round. The Chiefs also traded up a few spots to pick Georgia wideout Mecole Hardman at No.
