There's probably not a single GM who would take Breeland over Fuller for the same salary.
Fuller is a player who was not great last year but who could be a Pro Bowl player in the future.
Bashaud Breeland is a player that you know will give you good plays but also bad plays.
Wait until you see for how much Breeland signs a new contract.
Easily taking Fuller over Breeland here!

When the defense really started to gel, I didn't notice all these so-called bad plays of Breeland.
What, the occasional ticky-tack defensive pass interference got called on him? MOST OVERRATED PLAYER EVER!
I know it's all relative to a player's salary. If Breeland wanted Byron Jones money in his negotiations with the Chiefs and fans said, "Give him what he wants!" then yes, I would absolutely call that overrated. If he wanted top 10 CB money, I'd call that overrated. If he's asking for a mid to lower-end starter's salary? I think that's fair. And if the Chiefs have the cash, they should consider that deal.
I think just as you might perceive Chiefs fans looking past what makes Breeland not a top CB, I think you're also focusing way too heavily on just the handful of ****ups that Breeland had earlier in the season and putting him in Steven Nelson territory.
He's an outside CB who has demonstrated he can get the job done, especially at the highest level of competition. The Chiefs are in a money crunch, and I'm fine with letting him walk, but that doesn't make him overrated.
