KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- As they set their board before the NFL draft, general manager Brett Veach and the Kansas City Chiefs went through the usual exercises, trying to figure how much they would be willing to give up to move up for their favorite prospects.
The Chiefs, who entered the draft with the 29th and 30th picks in the first round, didn't bother with one of their favorite cornerbacks, Trent McDuffie of Washington. They figured he would be selected too early for them to have a realistic chance of trading up to draft him.
