[edit] to save you having to dig back, I think the Chiefs will (and should*) take a DL.

*unless Stafford is there, but I don't see any way that happens.
THERE.IS.NO.SUCH.THING.AS.A.CAN'T.MISS.PROSPECT.IN.ANY.****ING.DRAFT.

funny slightly related/pointless anecdote? I remember when I was younger and I collected football cards hardcore. in the 1997 press pass football set there was in insert (with varying odds of pulling the cards)... it had six cards in the collection. they were cards of yatil green, warrick dunn, orlando pace, jim druckenmiller, peter bouleware and rae carruth. the 'can't miss' prospects of the 1997 draft. of all of those guys, you have a convicted murderer, an abject injury bust, a solid RB (but not all-world 'can't miss!'), a solid OLB/de (bouleware was never the feared sack-master you want in the top five), a qb who sucked (druckenmiller never lived up to the hype), and ONE guy who lived up to the billing (if you ignore his injury issues for the last several years)... orlando pace.

so the lesson? can't miss doesn't exist. there is no such thing as a safe pick. I don't want safe. I want the pick that will net us a lombardi or two my lifetime.

BTW: you can't truly be a broncos AND chiefs' fan. wtf is this 'second team' bullshit? pick one team and go with it.
