"Kansas City Chiefs: Trent Richardson, RB, Alabama
Jamaal Charles will be back next year, but the Chiefs have never been convinced that he can carry the load. That's even a more unreasonable expectation in 2012 given that he's coming off a torn ACL.
Trent Richardson is by far the top player available. He would give Kansas City the top one-two punch at running back in the NFL.
For Chief fans who want a tackle or something else over Richardson, let me remind you of Arizona's 2007 NFL Draft (click the link for my re-mock). The Cardinals had a very slight need at running back (as much as Kansas City needs one), and Adrian Peterson was on the board at No. 5. They instead opted to take an inferior talent who filled a much bigger need. Five years later, I'm sure Arizona would rather have Peterson over Levi Brown.
Richardson is the best running back prospect since Peterson. Taking him here is the right move because you don't choose a Levi Brown over an Adrian Peterson."
