Kansas City Chiefs: 2015 NFL Draft Grades

<strong>Round 1: No. 18 Overall</strong> <p>Looking back on this five years from now, grabbing Peters with the 18th overall pick could easily look like the biggest steal in the first round of the 2015 NFL Draft.</p> <p>On the field, Peters has it all. He is a tough and physical corner with great size, speed and athleticism for the position. He is simply the best cover cornerback in this draft class. His press man-to-man skills are clearly NFL ready, and will immediately make him a problem for opposing NFL offenses.</p> <p>Peters did have some off-the-field issues in college, which led to him being kicked off the team last November. Maturity and coach-ability is certainly a concern going forward, which is why Peters was even available for the Chiefs at the 18th overall selection.</p> <p>He is a clear top ten talent who has a ton of upside going forward. Peters fills an obvious position of need for the Chiefs, and can step in and contribute right away. The pick certainly comes with some risk, but Peters has rare shutdown corner ability. The risk was worth taking here. Great pick.</p>. CB. Washington. MARCUS PETERS. A-
