Sean Smith is a very nice fit in Sutton's press coverage scheme, especially when he isn't asked to the #1 guy, and having a guy like Robinson as your nickleback is a luxury.
Depth might be a bit of a concern, but I think Jalil Brown, like Sean Smith, fits this system very nicely and he's shown flashes. I have hope for a guy like Brad McDougald as well. Guy was completely underrated in college and I was very happy that the Chiefs picked him up as a free agent after the draft.

Kendrick Lewis cant be counted on for anything other than getting hurt. Count on that.
I'd hate to see J. Brown anywhere near the field. Takes far too many chances for his talent level to overcome.
The D-Line scares the hell out of me. The starters would not start on any other team. A collection of an under acheiver, an unproven 2nd -year-guy who was a reach, and guy who provided depth on another team. What does that say for the backups? Complete shit as a unit with the ceiling being that they can be serviceable. Far too many years have gone by to have the D-line in this shape. But you know the saying that you can't fix everything in one season... It hold tue in KC. Overall though the team is much improved over last year.
