Here is the breakdown:

5-DBs

1-RB

Obviously the Chiefs are looking to add help in the secondary, most likely at safety. Five of the 15 players are DBs.

The Chiefs also added a kicker. While doing some research on this kid I found out he hit a 61-yard FG in high school. Looks like a big leg/poor accuracy prospect.
