Makes no sense at all. Whoever proposed the Chiefs moving up to #3 for a freaking LT is an idiot.

Because Albert is in his final year of his contract. He may be asking an exuberant amount of money and the Chiefs believe they can get a better fit at LT for less money. I'm not saying I agree, but I can understand the philosphy of thinking ahead.

I can understand it if he was picked at 11. I wouldnt like it, but i'd understand it. But trading up to 3 to do it makes no sense at all.

I agree, but if they think he's a better fit for our offense and a better overall player, than I can see that line of thinking.

All that being said, give up the farm for Andrew Luck, if we are willing to trade up that high.

Winston (28 y/o)

That is a young, solid line with good balance.
All we would need is a QB for the next five years.

I don't see it as an upgrade to:
Albert
De Castro
Hudson
Asamoah
Winston

We could have that now without giving up picks. I just think the media thinks that Chiefs are that pedestrian. We are picked to get an OT every year in every mock.

Why trade away pick when you could basically accomplish the same thing by either drafting DeCastro in the first or a center like Kontz in the second.

They better hope that's the case then because if you take a LT at #11, Albert WILL be gone next year, no matter what kind of money he might have asked for.
