Saying the Chiefs got Albert for Allen isn't the complete picture because KC still needs to replace Allen and find a pass rusher.

If the Chiefs had not traded Allen, the Chiefs would not have drafted Dorsey. I would have been fine with that, they may have traded down... which would have been great.
But, if not, they would have taken Albert at #5.
I think that they would have wanted to go to a 3-4 regardless.
I know he had a good year last year, but you look at the talent beside him and I think he actually took a step back from where he was in 2006.
At the time, I didn't want the Chiefs to sign him.
I didn't want the Chiefs to sign LJ either. I think they were both high risk players.
Time will tell, but I still think this is the best for the Chiefs..especially given the new scheme.
Oh, and if the #5 draft pick last year wasn't enough to keep the scheme the same, I don't know that JA would have prevented it either.
