Our current depth chart projection at CB, courtesy of Kent Swanson of AP Lab:

Here's a 53 man guess for right now. Could see movement at safety, linebacker, receiver and running back in regard to numbers kept. Ignore where I have Niemann. He's not a MIKE but 4 under WILL looked weird. pic.twitter.com/IOfyZnIrBO

Outside: Bashaud Breeland
Outside: Charvarius Ward
Slot: Kendall Fuller
Backups: Keith Reaser, Rashad Fenton, Mark Fields
Practice Squad: D'Montre Wade, Tremon Smith

This was before training camp. In the two days since it's started, Breeland has suffered a relatively minor injury, and the rest of the squad has played... not great.

Now for a much less positive tweet: the cornerback position terrifies me. It's early obviously, but it's not good.

So... is it time to pull the ripcord?

We know the Vikings are stacked at CB, and Trae Waynes could be a valuable asset.
We also know the Giants are desperate at WR now, and there's a rumor they're eyeballing Demarcus Robinson. Their CB depth chart is reportedly okay. But I don't know these guys, other than Janoris Jenkins.

So the Chiefs can't really go out and get a stud at this point, but maybe they can add desperately-needed depth at the position and maybe a starter by trading off a 2020 3rd to the Vikings for Waynes and Robinson for the Giants #3 corner (let's just say -- Eli Apple? -- like I said, I have no idea).

CB depth chart would then be:

Outside: Bashaud Breeland
Outside: Trae Waynes
Slot: Kendall Fuller
Backups: Charvarius Ward, Eli Applie?, Reaser/Wade/Fenton/Fields/Smith

Thoughts?
