1. Aside from the fact that I'd think the Giants will at least franchise Landon Collins, I don't see a situation where you can get him for less than 10 per. In fact, I'd think he's going to get closer to a Berry contract than anything. He's the best safety in the game and has been since they day he got to the league. I'd trend towards 5 for 75 with a minimum at 5 for 60.

2. I'm not sure Pittsburgh lets James get away, but if they do he'd be a solid get for sure.

3. There is chatter that Greedy Williams could go much later in the round than original rankings indicated but even then he remains at least one of the top 3 CBs in the draft with Murphy and Baker. Given that those 3 are really the only legitimate 1st rounders at the position, I'd assume they will all be gone by the time KC picks. You might get a guy that's slated as a day 2 pick that runs really well at the Combine slide up, like Oruwariye, Dean, Ya-Sin, or Williams.

4. I'm extremely high on Buggs but it sounds like he's going somewhere between end of 1 and early 2. Indications are the same for Ferguson. I've, essentially, taken them out of mocks because of that reason. If Buggs is there late in 2 he's a no-brainer for me.

5. I think you have Hodge close to where he should be right now but if he runs well and shows he can cover he's going to skyrocket because his production is so good. That said, I think he might a round higher either way or at least not at the bottom end of the 5th.

6. I'm going to assume Rodney Anderson is going to get plucked earlier than the 7th. Some team will take a shot on this kid getting and staying healthy. He's a 2nd round back if not for that. I'd say 5th round is the floor.

7. All of this said, I think all of us have a fairly similar mindset on what the Chiefs should do and you show that here. Gotta get some help on the back end early and often and still put a little work into the defensive front and offensive skill positions. Rome wasn't built in a day and neither will be re-tooling the Chiefs D, but if they can jump up to middle of the pack then they are doing something. With KC's offense, a middle of the pack D could mean undefeated this year.
