Should the Chiefs look at S Minkah Fitzpatrick as a CB?

This is what I'm saying.

It's very useful to have four guys who can line up anywhere. It's confusing for an offense. You don't know before the play-call where which guys are going to be. You're not sure where your mismatches are.

I like this idea a lot.

They don’t play Fuller outside though. He’s strictly a slot in this scheme so far.

I think that's due to him previously being so good there, better than anyone else they have to man that spot.

If that changes, then you can flex guys in or out.

Again, I just think back to the emphasis on scheme flexibility all offseason. It's why they went and got Honey Badger. It's why they drafted Thornhill. It's what they've said over and over about the front four and the LB corps.

but if they suddenly had a capable slot, and fuller is better on the boundry than ward do you not do it?

Yup.
