Miss? Definitely not the end of the world because you weren't absolutely counting on the guy to contribute. You're hoping, anticipating, but not counting. Big difference.
The Chiefs would have the luxury to take this risk right now.

Fair point.
The other candidates at 12 overall are similarly uninspiring.
I'm convinced the Chiefs think they have to get a tackle this year, though. We do need a starting RT, but more importantly, we also need insurance in case Albert loses his mind and demands Willie Roaf money.
I do love Trent Richardson, but (a.) he won't fall to us, and (b.) his window is what, 5 years?
