If the Chiefs feel that Sanchez isn't all that, or if both go 1-2, then they are going to have a huge decision to make.

I think falling into the trap of saying, "this position isn't worth the 3rd pick" is a lot like going against taking the best player available motto.

I want a stud player at 3. If it's a linebacker, then so be it.

Understand what you are saying.

But thats not how teams view it. Its all about value because of $$$$$

A LB who doesnt rush the QB, doesnt hold as high a value as a LT, QB, stud DE, etc....

My guess is, the Chiefs draft an OT if both QB's are gone.

But then that OT becomes a RT and that falls into the same theory that you don't pay a linebacker that much at 3.

They would probably shift Albert around. Albert was what, 15th? He wouldnt be making as much as the 3rd pick in the draft obviously.

This scenario is far more dumb than drafting a LB 3rd overall.

Moving Brendan Albert when he was a stud is the worst scenario I can think of.
