this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I think the Chiefs HAVE to get a LT in this draft. I don't think they have anyone on their roster that can play LT at this time. They were worst in the league in sacks allowed and rushing yds ...

Re: Might Chris Long fall to Saints
I think the Chiefs HAVE to get a LT in this draft. I don't think they have anyone on their roster that can play LT at this time. They were worst in the league in sacks allowed and rushing yds per game last year. I believe out of all of the teams in the top 5 they will be the most likely to trade down with us with us giving up the least amount to do it.
If the draft shapes out like this don't be the least bit suprised to see us move up to 5. 1) Miami: Jake Long 2) St. Louis: Chris Long 3) Atlanta: Matt Ryan 4) Oakland: McFadden 5) New Orleans: Dorsey 6) New York: Gholston 7) Patriots: McKelvin, Cromartie, or Rivers 8) Ravens: McKelvin, Cromarite, or Ellis 9) Bengals: Rivers or Ellis 10) Kansas City: Clady Let's just say I really really think this might happen. Not sure what we would have to give up to move up 5 spots, but given the Chiefs are desperate to move out if Jake Long is gone, I think we could probably fleece them for a lot less than it would normally take. Oakland is the key in this scenario. If they were to take Dorsey over McFadden then all this is moot. I think Al Davis is crazy though, and is enamored with speed and thus will pass on the better prospect for the one that puts more butts in seats and runs faster. |
