11. Kansas City Chiefs* -- Riley Reiff, OT, Iowa
The Chiefs need to infuse their offensive line with attitude, and Reiff plays nasty. He fits every stereotype of an Iowa lineman in a good way.

It seems like I've heard this one before..

So Riley Reiff, from the few games I saw plays LT, correct? I agree we need to work on our offensive line, but it’s the right side that’s looking weak. With Harris being signed, is that going to put him at RG? Maybe he can compete for it with another rookie and or FA. I also think we should bring a veteran RT in. Hudson should be our starting center next year.

Please, no more, let’s move Brandon Albert over to the right, he’s done a good job on the left and improved each season. I like the left side, let’s get the right side updated.

I for one, am fine with BA. Just interesting to see the names getting tossed around. People outside the organization think we need to move him.

Actually Reiff fits the prototypical Zone blocking scheme for RT

He is excellent in Pass Pro, but his run blocking concerns me. I dont know how effective he will be at the next level. I would rather have Martin. I think both Martin and Reiff will be off the board by 11. I expect Miami will take Reiff since Vernon Carey is retiring or leaving. Both Carolina and Buffalo need tackles as Otah cant stay healthy and Bell has had a bazilion knee surgerys, Bell is also up for a new contract. I could see them letting him walk and drafting Martin. Best player available in my opinion with those 2 gone is OG Decastro. Hes big, nasty, pulling ability and blocking in space is amazing, he has power, athleticism, there isn’t a flaw in his game anywhere. Hes the best OG to come out in a long time, being compared to Steve Hutchinson and will be a Pro Bowler from year one. Then go out and get Levi Brown to play RT.

If it was me, I would have Albert/Decastro/Hudson/Aso/Brown.
Talk about a line to get things done. Charles would rush for 2000 yards. I also like ILB Burfict, hes being compared to Pat Willis. Incredible speed, has the ability to rush like an OLB, absolute thumper. The first 5 or 6 plays of this vid tell you all you need to know about Burfict! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KvcsffTQojI

I would take Burfict

If KC can go out and find an RT in FA. In another post, someone mentioned Harris at Center, which would put Hudson at LG. Albert/Hudson/Harris/Asamoah/Brown
