Round 2 – Pick 63

Bryce Hall, CB, Virginia

Among the questions for the Chiefs this offseason is what they’re going to do in the secondary. Kendall Fuller and Bashaud Breeland are both set to be free agents and it is unclear what kind of money they’re going to command in the open market.

The Chiefs believe they have their top corner in Charvarius Ward, but obviously someone has to play on the other side of him, and Bryce Hall from Virginia could be that guy.

Hall is a former teammate of the Chiefs’ 2019 second-round pick Juan Thornhill, and had he declared last season he would have been drafted around the same area as his former teammate.

He’s a bigger corner so large receivers won’t give him much issue in terms of physicality, and he has really good feet for someone his size. False steps or bad footwork can be somewhat of a problem area for bigger secondary guys, but that’s not the case with Hall.

Hall also has exceptional ball skills, leading the country with 21 pass breakups in 2018. His length creates an added advantage in press coverage as he’s adept at getting his hands on receivers at the line of scrimmage and is able to reroute them. Combine that with his high football IQ in zone coverage and he would be a perfect fit in Steve Spagnuolo’s complex scheme.
