i think a trade down is still quite likely although this move does open the other tackle spot

I expect the RT to either be in free agency or Donald Stephenson.

well, i'd bet a trade down, AR trades down all the time, nearly every year

AND, AR loves to build up draft picks for future years, my bet is a trade down to around the 10-15 spot and then get some picks in the middle rounds, mix of this and next year

Remember when we were trying to emulate the patrot way.

Now we are actually doing it the Chiefs way.

Hell if were gonna trade down that low why not trade revis and the #9 pick to us for the #1 pick.

Now if we release Cassell we will fully be gone of the patriot way.

However with his salary IDK.

You could get Sean Smith and Dashon Goldson for that price.

there are probably a gazzilion options, just have to get another team to reach a bit

if not, then grab that OT and then there are two bookends who setup the line for the next 6 years

Im really hoping B Albert signs long term andxwe trade back and grab Lane Johnson to play RT if Stephenson is not the answer.

Ebon Britton is a FA and his old coach Andy Heck is now the OL coach here.
Sure doesn't look like he could stay healthy though.

Also Jeff Allen played on a strong side/weak side OL where they flipped their tackles depending on the play. His hand placement to play either side shouldn't be an issue. It woulld also make him an ideal 3rd game day tackle to back up both sides should stevenson win the job

No one is moving up to the 1 spot via trade, there is nothing to trade for in this draft.

that is the problem, however teams tend to panic buy as the time nears

let's hope so...

Matt Miller ‏@nfldraftscout

It appears that #Chiefs franchise tagged player Branden Albert deleted his twitter account after saying tonight he wouldn't move to RT.
