Option D.

I don't know why, but I think this Johnson thing has legs. I think it's far more likely we bring him in than we bring Moss in.

Well, now that the Johnson thing is apparently put to bed...

If Branch, Carriker or Anderson are there, take 'em and don't think twice. Branch has motor issues, but he's a physical specimen. Shaun Rogers fell because he had work ethic issues (and an ankle question mark) and he's turned out fine. Carriker and Anderson are two outstanding every down ends and you can rotate them in when Jenkins moves inside. Same with Moss.

Next would be Reggie Nelson. Loved the kid since the first time I saw him in October, I'm still not off that bandwagon.

Third I like Revis. We need a 3rd CB more than any position out there, including RB, WR or TE. He would also boost the PR game.

No to Lynch. We can get a better RB in next year's class.

No to Olson. Straight line speed doesn't impress me a whole lot. The guy is light below the waist, doesn't block and goes down with a stiff wind.

I know Branch has fallen a bit, but I just don't see him falling to us. Regardless, I like the comparisons (athletically and play-style wise) to John Henderson and would consider snatching him up if he fell. DTs are just so bustable, and one with motor issues puts up additional red flags. Rogers turned out okay, but maybe he doesn't.

Agree on Carriker and Anderson, but I can't imagine either falling to us.

Trade down when a player falls to the Packers that shouldn't have ... have TT work his magic in rounds 2-4. We NEED to get a S, WR, TE and RB from this draft. We should also get OL, DL, CB depth if possible ... but the first four are KEY.

I think that the Chiefs put the "LJ isn't on the trading block" out there to try and get more interest generated ... they won't get it and will have to settle for an offer like the Packers' because of the bloated contract a team will have to absorb.

If we can trade Javon Walker and a big new contract to the Broncos for a 2nd rounder, the Chiefs can take a 1st and a 4th from us for LJ and an even BIGGER contract.

I think they'll keep #16 and take LaRon Landry if he's still there. Next in line, Robert Meechum if Landry is off the board. Look for RB in 2nd or 3rd Rd.
