Any WR or RB that is taken in the top 10 is a gift for the Chiefs IMO.
If Kalil drops I'd probably take him, but not over Tannenhill. We are in the position to take the best player available despite of need. |

If Kalil is there at 11, maybe that will entice some teams, so we can trade down.

Kalil will be an excellent run blocker. And besides - it's your LT; isn't pass-blocking paramount? Kalil will be a better pass-blocker than Albert on day 1, IMO. I think you're really understating Kalil's ability here. If USC hadn't been declared poll/bowl ineligible, they'd have spent more time on the national radar this year and more people would understand how good this guy is. He really does have Joe Thomas potential. And yeah, QB is certainly the problem - but what's your point? If Kalil's sitting there at 11 it will be because Tannehill went already - so why in the world do you continue to bang the QB drum?

Run Blocking 1 (elite) Possesses above-average quickness with first step and lateral movements and consistently gets into proper position. Sometimes will initially engage with too high of pad level but quickly resets and regains leverage. A nasty inline blocker that seems to play with more power in the run game than he does in pass protection. Shows ability to move defenders off the ball. Balanced and is rarely seen on the ground. Excels as a second level blocker. Shows good timing and angles coming off of combo blocks and easily engulfs LBs. Above-average athlete pulling in the open field and adjust well to cover up targets. |

He struggles with speed rushers because he his feet are only adequate. Because of that he also has to cheat a little bit to the outside and can get knocked a bit off balance with an inside swim/hump move. I think he's a good LT. But I think Kalil can be a great one. And frankly, we have no idea what Albert will cost as a FA and if we can afford to keep him. If we end up in a situation with Albert/Bowe like we were in with Carr/Bowe this year and can only tag one of them - we're in a pretty damn tough spot, aren't we? I'm not eager to get rid of him. I've never been one to slam him either. But in the end if Kalil were to fall, the value there would be otherwordly and you'd have a chance to upgrade on him. Why not? But here's a true 'fact' for Dave: Kalil will not make it to 11. The Rams would be insane to pass on him. Hell, the Jags would be stupid to do so. And ultimately I think someone would trade up as soon as he starts slipping, if he even starts slipping. I still think the Vikings will take him at 3.
