Chiefs select Louisiana Tech DB L’Jarius Sneed in fourth round at No. 138 overall

With the 138th pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, the Kansas City Chiefs select Louisiana Tech DB L’Jarius Sneed

In 2019, Sneed recorded 73 total tackles, 3.5 tackles for loss, three interceptions and six passes defended.

Here’s a look at what NFL.com analyst Lance Zierlein had to say about Sneed:

“Defensive back with good size and length. He’s much more likely to be considered as a cornerback than a safety. Sneed is a little bit tight in space and won’t have the fluid transitions teams look for in man coverage, but he has quality ball skills and adequate instincts to help attract teams looking for size at corner. He’s not a physical tackler, but he could be good enough for placement into a zone-heavy scheme where he will be forced into more run-support duties. His experience as a split-safety and slot cover corner could push him up a round or so as a draftable Day 3 prospect.”
