Art Still was pretty good in his day. The guy who I used to share Chiefs season tickets with had St. Louis football Cardinals season tickets back in the '80's, and he said Still was the only guy who ever dominated Dan Dierdorf.

They played the 3-4 when Still was here, so I would consider him more of a Richard Seymour type. Hell yeah, I'd take that guy at #3 this year. Still had a couple off years when he became a vegetarian and went on an all-berry diet, I think he played a couple years in the 252 pound range, which was too light, even for back then.

IIRC, there was some discussion about taking Wes Chandler with that pick in 1978, but I think the Chiefs were happy they took Still. It would have been nice if they would've kept him and let him play opposite Neil and Derrick in '89-'90.

Just curious...why didn't you ask if we would take Neil Smith with the #3 pick? Is there a guy in this draft who reminds you more of Still than Smith?

There's not a guy at #3 that will have anywhere near the careers of either Neil Smith or Art Still.

If you think there's a 100 sack guy sitting at #3 in the 2009 NFL Draft, you are completely delusional.

The point is there isn't an elite DE prospect...I'm not even sure if there's one with elite upside.

No particular reason other than Still came to mind (due to the greatest Chiefs by decade thread) and Smith did not.
