Updated Nov. 23. He gives us the #10 pick, and for the first time all year, he claims we won't need to use it to draft a QB.
10. Kansas City Chiefs: Calais Campbell, DE, Miami
Brodie Croyle actually looked pretty decent at Indianapolis, so maybe the Chiefs will hold off on drafting a quarterback and give their young gun-slinger a year to prove himself. With that in mind, Sam Baker and Ryan Clady become serious options to improve the offensive line. However, I don't think Kansas City can pass on Calais Campbell, the best player available at this juncture. Jared Allen may defect for another team via the free-agent market. If that happens, the Chiefs will need an insurance policy anyway.
Odd pick, but nonetheless.
40. Kansas City Chiefs: Barry Richardson, OT, Clemson
Let's see... the Chiefs can't run the ball (Larry Johnson averaging 3.5 yards per carry) or pass protect (29 sacks allowed in nine games). Will Kansas City finally come to its senses and realize it needs to draft some offensive linemen to replace the ones that retired? For the sake of Chiefs fans everywhere, I hope so.
71. Kansas City Chiefs: Mike Hart, RB, Michigan
In the wake of Priest Holmes' retirement, all the Chiefs have left at the running back position are the suddenly injury-prone Larry Johnson and rookie Kolby Smith.
What an interesting 1-2-3. I wouldn't have banked on it.
