Now the only real question as far as I am concerned is whether or not we really believe Powe can be our NT. Obviously not this year, but in the future, and in the meantime, who's our guy?

C'mon, man. I love the Justin Houston pick, but can we cut it with the "first round talent" thing? Based on whose opinion? A bunch of draft junkees? There are plenty of teams who will pass on character for first round talent. There are more than plenty of teams who treat the combine as a one-time test. Teams care about character, but they're 32 teams aren't going to pass on first round talent twice unless there was something they felt was going to limit his game.
To your point on NTs. I still think the Chiefs should front-load on Aubrayo Franklin. When he tries, he's one of the best Nose Tackles in the game. He had a shortened season last year because of a holdout. And he wouldn't be any worse than what we have with the potential to be astronomically better.
