I thought this was an interesting stat. I think it is fairly obvious that in the NFL the OL and DL/LB are critical, but this makes it seem like they should now be our top priority. I figured if Berry was available that the Chiefs wouldn't hesitate to take him. Now I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they passed him up for McClain or Okung.All six NFL teams that played in the Divisional Round of the playoffs finished the regular season ranked 10th or better in sack differential, and just two teams in the top ten didn't make the postseason. In other words, the best teams in the NFL have good offensive and defensive lines. The league's three worst teams in sack differential were the Jaguars (-30), Chiefs (-23), and Rams (-19). Look for those teams to use their first-round picks on linemen or pass rushers. -Evan Silva
