4. If you could take one Jaguars player to put on the Chiefs, who would you choose?

"Heh, I actually covered this in a recent article.  If I could take put one Jags player on the Chiefs roster it would probably be Prince Amukamara.  The Chiefs have a talented secondary, but they are very young at the corner spot.  Amukamara hasn’t been in the league a long time, but he has been around enough to be a steady veteran presence.  That is exactly what the Chiefs are in need of at the moment."

My take:

This is an interesting choice by Ben, especially after Prince was beaten like a drum two weeks ago by Michael Crabtree, but I give him credit for a bold choice. He could’ve taken the easy route and said Jalen Ramsey, but Amukamara has been solid for the better part of 7 games. He’s not without his flaws, but Prince has certainly been a net positive free agent signing and his presence as a veteran would be welcome along a young Chiefs secondary.

That being said, Prince is a short term solution. Ramsey would be a much better fit big picture opposite Peters – you could even make the case that Ramsey would help more this year as well.
