Because we could still get a top talent.

Let's say the board falls like this, which it definitely could:

1. Miami- J. Long
2. St. Louis- G. Dorsey
3. Atlanta- M. Ryan
4. Oakland- C. Long

we know the Jets like McFadden and the Patriots like Gholston, so in this scenario we would be assured of landing Ellis. Or at the worst, we would get Gholston.

Even if the Falcons take C. Long and then Oakland takes Gholston, then we could move back one spot and still take Ellis or Ryan. Seems like a win/win for us and we gain another pick in the top 3 rounds.

Good, I hope you guys move ahead of Denver and save Shanahan from himself by forcing him to take his 2nd option...

We won't.

And BTW, who are you assuming is the top talent in the draft?

More I think about, we move up to 11 it will be to take Albert.

It would be a good move too....there would be a DE/DT at 17 worth that pick, IMHO. :)

I'm hearing we're going to trade all 13 of our picks this year for every pick in next year's draft. Then next year we're going to trade the entire draft for the rights to every pick for the next 10 years. We'll dominate the NFL.

No, no, no - we would trade up with Buffalo from 17 to get Albert. At 5 we would get Ellis or Gholston.

No, in this scenario you would take Gholston and give the middle finger to anyone wanting to trade up.

That's awesome.

It's not for Albert, it's for Chris Williams. Denver loves Williams, and you guys should too.

If that's what it takes to lock him down, I'm all for it. Chris Williams needs to be our 2nd first round pick.

If KC were in the mood to move up, as GM I would try my hardest to "mortgage the future" and only surrender one pick in the 2008 Draft and throw in anything lower than a 2nd to make it palatable... That is of course if means we get a good value and not totally butt****ed in either the 09 or 10 draft.

Haha, just wait until after the draft when all the guru's give the Chiefs and F grade.

Yep. If Long, Dorsey, Ryan, and C, Long are gone - this is what I hope we do. Seems like a no brainer. That's what scares me though.

Shoot - I'f Ryan's gone, I'd take Gholston at # 5 no matter who's still there.
