With the #5 I'd expect the Chiefs to go after Vernon Gholston. From what i've read, he's basically Shawn Merriman on roids, but this guy does it NATURALLY. Then with the #19 pick, we take the Clady or best availiable OT. I still don't think J. Long will be available at #5.
But there again, I'd still like to see the Chiefs trade that #5 pick and turn it into 2 more 1st round picks.
