I'll just say what I said then: if Albert turns out to be a stud LT, I am a horse's ass. If he holds his own, I'm wrong. But if he struggles and they have to move him elsewhere, I think that's a lousy-ass pick that could have gone to Rodgers-Cromartie, Mike Jenkins, or Devin Thomas.

I don't think Thomas is going to be all that good..he had 1 good year in college and well, his hands are kinda suspect aswell.

Firstly on the pass rush side we have...

Michael Johnson
George Selvie
Eric Moncur
Greg Hardy
Maurice Evans
Lawrence Wilson-this guy along with Moncur are the ones I see with huge breakout potential this year.

On the strong side we'll have
Greg Middleton
Kyle Moore

Okay, Maurice Evans I can see. But other than him and the aforementioned Middleton and Johnson, I'm not excited yet.

I'll give it a year.

Lawrence Wilson was better thought of than Vernon Gholston entering last year then he broke his leg.....

I think that guy may vault himself into being a top 5-10 pick...

Personally I list Kyle Moore and he plays at SC, here's the thing with him he plays in the cover 2 and he's a great player to have he starts for us there but in the NFL he'd be a great pick in say the 4th round. He's 285 knows the defense and is a great run defender and would give you some options.

Well lord knows you nailed the Chiefs' draft forwards and backwards, so you've earned the benefit of the doubt at this point.

If things pan out as I suspect they will (mainly this team will struggle, Croyle will flame out, and Bradford will NOT declare), this is a starter draft for us if we're around #3:

1. Stafford
2. DE Pannel Egboh, Stanford
3. MLB Dannell Ellerbe, Georgia
4. WR Greg Matthews, Michigan
5. DE Jeremy Jarmon, Kentucky
6. OG Paul Fanaika, Arizona State
7. some DT from a smaller school who tore it up, let's say Jake Visser for Ferris State.

We still have a shitload of holes, though. I wouldn't mind us finding some way to shop Tony G or Waters or somebody to get us some picks.

Tebow won't play for us unless we make jorts parts of the official team uniform.

I would love to have Oher, even if Alberts does a great job. We can move Alberts to RG then have our Roaf and Shields back,! and 10 years younger.

Which makes this year's draft even better.

We didn't panic and overvalue a DE to replace Allen, we filled holes AND got great value.

Next year if Hali/Whomever don't cut it we can take another swipe at DE. Hopefully DE and another CB.

Oh, and of course a Safety. Safeties are like Jello in KC: there's always room for more...

I think Maclins 2 holdbacks to going that high will be 1, one of the other guys he'll be competing with will be the same thing in Percy Harvin. And the other one, Darius Heyward-Bey has legit starting NFL size and ability so we'll see how this works out.

Word is Percy Harvin has bulked up this summer. He now weighs over 200lbs and benches 400lbs.

Also don't be surprised if Vontae Davis jumps Jenkins at CB..
I consider Mays and Moore the top safeties with Kam Chancellor right in behind there, I think Rolle's speed will be an issue.

I don't think that will happen, Jenkins is tight in every aspect. He can play both safety and CB, and he is a lock down CB for sure. He plays CB 3/4 of the time, but will play S in certain packages.

REP. Not many people know that, you seem to be well rounded in your College football knowledge. Lawrence Wilson in one word is a "stud".

If I were Mecca.... I would buy the domain DraftMecca.com or something, and put up a site with my insights.

Good shit, man.

No shit, the guy's a pro.

He pretty much deserves the red carpet treatment this year. He just about nailed the Chiefs draft.

If we're in the top 5 I'd expect us to be looking at QB, hard.
