If Okung and Bulaga are off the board...
1. Bradford
2. Okung 3. Suh 4. Bulaga 5. ? I was thinking that Berry would be the logical pick, but just can't imagine Pioli pulling the trigger on a safety this early without looking at other possibilities. I think it comes down to the following players: Trent Williams, OT; Oklahoma Gerald McCoy, DT; Oklahoma Eric Berry, S; Tennessee Dorsey was in Haley's dog house to start summer camp and doesn't necessarily fit the profile for a prototype five technique defensive end in a 3-4 scheme. McCoy would be very enticing to a team that had no problem using the third pick in the draft on Jackson, who is playing the seven tech/LDE for the Chiefs. Williams showed some excellent athleticism at the combine and has the potential to anchor the offensive line at either the RT or LT spot. Albert has been mediocre and inconsistent at best. Wade Smith and Andy Alleman are no longer Chiefs. It's not a reach to think that they would draft Williams and put Albert in at guard - a position he played and excelled at in college. Berry is an immediate upgrade to the Chiefs defensive backfield. However, he does play a position that typically doesn't have the positional value of others in terms of being a high draft pick. It comes down to the Chiefs believing that he actually is an Ed Reed clone and if that position in the 3-4 scheme is relevant to such a high pick. |

When Dorsey was out....the run defense sucked. When he came back in....it got better. Coincidence? I think not.

Okung and Bulaga in the top 4? Me thinks not. Anything is possible but I highly doubt Bulaga goes at 4 even if the Lions grab Okung.

I just see no way in hell that is happening, Bulaga ain't even that good.
Washington should take McCoy before Bulaga. |

I just don't see Shanahan looking at this draft and not picking up a left tackle at #4, especially when you look at the state of their offensive line as it currently stands. And Shanahan doesn't value the defensive tackle position, so I can't see him spending the fourth pick on McCoy. I also am having a hard time looking at the Chiefs not taking a tackle at this point either. Berry is going to have to rate out as other-worldly for the Chiefs to take him. I wouldn't be shocked if Williams was the Chiefs pick in this scenario. |

If both Okung and Bulaga are gone, I don't think it's that much of a reach to envision the Chiefs selecting Trent Williams, especially with Alleman and Smith off the roster. |

Dan Williams on the other hand, i can see them reach for. Reaching for Dan Williams at 5 is not NEARLY has huge of a reach as Trent Williams at 5. No ****ing way.

If it does happen that washington takes a tackle, we have to trade down, imo. Someone will want to jump seattle for mccoy. Primo opportunity to add picks.

I think I'd rather take Gerald McCoy than trade down.

If the Chiefs didn't have the choice between those two it would be one of the best days in Chiefs history.
