Kansas City Chiefs select Oregon State DB Steven Nelson in third round

With the 98th pick in the 2015 NFL Draft, the Kansas City Chiefs select Oregon State DB Steven Nelson.

This is the Chiefs second third round pick in this draft. NFL Network's Charles Davis really liked this pick when announcing it. Here's his NFL.com profile:

Nelson is tailor-made for the Tampa-2 scheme. An aggressive, physical player in run support who can also limit yards after catch underneath, Nelson does his best work in off coverage. As long as he can keep everything in front of him, Nelson should be able to compete for a starting spot in the league.

Nelson is the second defensive back taken in this draft. Washington CB Marcus Peters was selected in the first round. Clearly this is a position the Chiefs felt they needed to bulk up on heading into the 2015 season and beyond. Nelson is 5'10 which is a little shorter than most of the Chiefs cornerbacks so I wonder what they have in mind for him.

The Chiefs remaining needs include inside linebacker, defensive end and ... wide receiver? Or is Chris Conley enough?
