we can only hope he does

How did he do in the Bowl game today?

Not a chance. There are at least two teams ahead of us that should draft him. (Actually, all three/four of them need him.)

So how about Clady?

Do we have a shot at him?

Certainly. Although he may be viewed as a reach where we will be drafting. (Fourth or fifth.)

**hermhater** · 01-02-2008, 10:06 PM

So who do we draft if they are not available?

I think the Chiefs could get Long...things would have to drop in place though....

Miami for one needs a ton of players...they could trade down, but assuming they keep the #1 pick, they could draft a number of positions...lets assume McFadden or Dorsey

St Louis had problems on the O-line this year, but most were caused by injuries not necessarily lack of talent. I'd draft defense if I was them and take either Dorsey or Long.

Oakland could draft Jake Long, but Lane Kiffin has been clear that he's disappointed in the defense, stopping the run is critical in the AFC West with all the teams having good to great running games (KC's will recover next year)...I say Sedrick Ellis is their pick.

Atlanta needs a lot, but I'd guess they start with a QB...Matt Ryan.

This scenario would leave Jake Ryan for the Chiefs, but if I was them I'd seriously consider Sam Baker...he's coming out of USC and is a very athletic and very big guy. I actually like him as well or better than Long.
