My official endorsement for the 11th overall pick.

I think he could be more complete than Charles. I don't think there is a RB duty that he guy can't do at a top level.

If I'm not mistaken, he just had his knee scoped. A knee he hurt earlier in the season but played with it for a little while.

I get the rb stuff, but IMO he's one of the top 4 or 5 talents in the draft. It would be hard to pass that up.

I think he's an elite level talent for the position.

There are some very nice players in this draft. Luck, Griffin, Kalil, DeCastro, Kuechly and Richardson are all "elite" level players. Blackmon, Claiborne, Konz and Jenkins are "near elite." And there are some really good, solid players like Reiff, Kirkpatrick and Martin. There is also some real high-ceiling "boom-bust" guys like Brockers, Poe, etc. It's one of the better first rounds that I can remember.

The problem is, the Chiefs kind of fall into a no-man's land at that #11 pick with regards to need/BPA. Richardson is a luxury. Kuechly is a luxury. DeCastro is a luxury. Griffin/Luck is going to cost an arm and a leg to go get. Martin is a left tackle. (Do they go that route and move Albert over to RT?) Do you draft a right tackle, like Reiff, that high?

It's a very solid, top heavy draft with a deep first round and good talent deep at a lot of positions. The Chiefs should come out with a very good player regardless.
