The key is being stuck at #3 overall. If that were to happen, a realistic scenario is KC drafting an OT. If an OT is drafted that high, it is typically a LT (RT if your QB is a southpaw).
If that were to happen, what happens to Albert? Now, does that "diminish" him as a player when he has proven he can play any position? No.
Now, you following me camera guy? We're going to do this in real time: if KC TRADES DOWN, the OT scenario odds are greatly diminished. The need for a RT still remains. What does that mean? Bueller? Bueller? It means KC can draft for another need, then address RT at another time. OR, if a stud RT is available when they DO pick, perhaps they take him then. Depends on the position and the player now, doesn't it?
I can draw you a picture if you like. |
The point he makes is that you admitted that RT has less value than LT by stating we could find one (RT) later in the draft.
If we actually had the need for LT, would you suggest that we could simply trade down and find a LT later?
