Absolutely....
I really think they hope Nelson will be the long term answer at nickel back. He fits the mold they Sutton and Reid like perfectly. He's quick and smaller like Kyle Wilson, Brandon Boykin, Flowers, and Owens. I really think they like him and made a point to get him in the draft. They just haven't found the right guy to play inside since they got to KC. I love that he never missed a single tackle in college too. He's a scrappy little dude.
Gaines can play nickel but will be better outside. Smith better watch out or he could end up being this years Stephenson. If those guys play lights out while he's suspended they won't Put him in when he gets back.
