Glenn Dorsey (LSU) #5 To The Chiefs

Kansas City Chiefs
#5 Overall
Glenn Dorsey (DT) LSU

Home run. These first few picks could not have gone better for the Chiefs. Jake Long dropping would have been nice but grabbing Dorsey here is a huge steal. His presence will solve a long-standing problem on the interior of the Chiefs defensive line. They have last years #1 Tamba Hali to man one of the DE spots and with their wealth of picks in this draft the Chiefs can find somebody to work opposite of Hali later this afternoon.

Given the way this draft is shaking out it sure looks like one of the premier OT's will fall to the Chiefs at #17. That Jared Allen trade is looking even more brilliant right now. I know Allen is great but great DT's are proving harder than DE's to find these days. To get Dorsey and one of the top OL prospects would make this an A+ DAY ONE of the draft for the Chiefs. Those 2 picks would just be that good.
