96. Michael Ojemudia | CB | Iowa
Another Iowa Hawkeye for Kansas City.
Ojemudia has some of the best length in a draft class that is really lacking for long players. He ran a 4.45 40-yard dash at the combine, proving to be one of the faster corners in this class. Coaches will love that he’s a willing run defender. They’ll also enjoy that he has the ability to play a variety of different coverages including zone and man coverage.
I worry about his ability to play press coverage because he wasn’t asked to do it a lot at Iowa. He has the length to succeed there, but I think it will be an adjustment for him in the NFL. You could do a lot worse in the third round if you’re Brett Veach. At the same time, I worry about waiting until the third round to address the top need of the team.
