As I said, with the Chiefs running a semi-spread anyway, and it being adopted more and more throughout the NFL, I don't see a problem with Okung as the Chiefs first round choice. Besides, he's been a starting LT for three seasons now, and has gone against quality rush ends consistently during his college career. He has excellent footwork and plays hard all game long. I'd rather have Okung at LT, which allows Albert to slide over to LG (a position that I think he could be absolutely dominant at for the next decade), and draft a player like Stuckey in the second than just have Berry in the first. (And as I stated, I don't think that Mays has shown enough instinct on the ball and quality tackling to be considered anything other than a faster Bernard Pollard at this point. And like I said, that's not a bad thing, just not a top ten player in my opinion.)

And if you wanted a big free safety, you could always look at someone like Kam Chancellor of Virginia Tech in the 3/4 round, or if you wanted a ball hawk, someone like Robert Johnson of Utah in the later rounds would be a nice pick. I just don't see where Mays justifies a top ten pick other than his physical attributes. Kind of like Dunlap at Florida. He's a complete and utter physical freak, but his play on the field isn't to the same level as what his athleticism would suggest - just like Mays.

We're going to be in the same position as last year. Top 5 for sure, probably top 3.

No one will want the pick.
