That tells me that they are going after the OL early. And you can't tell me that a guy like Zach Martin wouldn't give both Dorsey and Reid the warm fuzzies if he were sitting there at 23. (I don't think he is going to be, unless the WR run happens and he drops.)

Sanders is young and is a proven commodity. That would kill the WR at 23 for the Chiefs. Dinosaur/disco level dead. And seeing as they signed Walker, so is the DL. Dennard will not fall to the Chiefs. Not a chance.

That leaves OLB, S, and OL.

And OL is the biggest need/hole at that point. Now, I think that Zach Martin is a Zane Beadles clone and you would be getting a top level guard, but I really don't think he gets past Miami, who still has a serious need at guard (and even RT).

If I would hazard a guess, the following players will be looked at really hard by the Chiefs at the #23 spot - if they sign Sanders in FA:

Xavier S'ua-Filo (really projects extremely well into Reid's offense)
Kyle Van Noy (his amazing versatility will allow him to lineup either inside or outside in the 34)
Dee Ford (pure ROLB to groom to replace Hali)
Kyle Fuller (depends on how they feel about Cooper's development and long term potential)

Now, if they don't sign Sanders in FA, they will pick between whoever is left from Beckham, Cooks and Lee, or possibly Moncrief, Benjamin, Allen Robinson or Jordan Matthews if those three are off the board.

Sensible. Good post.
