Naturally on 3rd an longs they'll sub in other quicker guys to pass rush.
I mean don't the Pats with Wilfork or the Steelers with Hampton take those guys out on 3rd & passing situations? I'd have to watch more of their games to know for sure but I'm assuming they do.
So whatever NT we draft, if he's a two down guy, I'm fine with that. Just as long as he stuffs the run getting us to those 3rd and longs.
changing subject:
And I'm also a fan of Alexander. I've seen how San Diego runs their offense with big WRs and essentially deep jump balls and I'd like to see some of that in KC.

Most of the truly great NTs of the past several years, Jamaal Williams and Hampton, for example, were three down players until they hit their 30's.
Wilfork has normally been a two down player, but I personally think he's a little overrated.
