You don't want to spend a high 1st round pick on a guy that couldn't even dominate college O lineman.

I've heard the Chiefs front office state repeatedly they want an "impact" player at 15. As you said, Spears is solid, but not what I'd call an impact player. That's what I'm hanging my hat on, hoping I don't hear, "with the 15th pick, the Chiefs select Marcus Spears".
We should, however, be concerned if we trade back into the late teens/early twenties, because that very well could be Spears territory.
