The only caviat being versatile guys as far as scheme fit/inside/outside corner/safety types.
Sneed I might pay. McDuffie has the sort of varied skillset that might be more than just an outside corner.
There is no such thing as a shutdown corner anymore. Let someone else pay for the myth
Rush the passer, stuff the run. Confuse with scheme and hope for the best.

I disagree, quite a bit.
Chase did get Ward on the sideline in the first matchup. Not the same deal the 2nd time around. When Ward shut Chase down in round 2 by altering how he used the sideline to his advantage, they exploited the slot matchup. That is reason and exhibit A on why you need good corners 3 deep. You don't need stars 3 deep, but you can't be as weak as the Chiefs were after Ward and Sneed. No Ward is likely going to be a problem early on this year unless Sneed steps up another notch and the rookies play well.
