Jones was drafted as a possible replacement for Poe and Dorsey said this past week that he wants Jones to push his way into the starting lineup this season.

This defense was built on first round picks. The odds of maintaining this level of talent even continuing to use first round picks aren't good. The odds of doing it with late rounders are even worse.
The Chiefs had a nice run on first rounders that would be hard to duplicate. The fact that they're unlikely to be picking top half of the draft makes it that much tougher.
It's great that you think every draft pick is a homerun, but it's not very realistic.
