For those with ESPN Insider access, Jeff Legwold has an interesting look at what each NFL team might do if it had the No. 1 overall pick.
He supposes the Kansas City Chiefs would take USC defensive lineman Leonard Williams instead of his second choice for them, Oregon quarterback Marcus Mariota.
I suspect Legwold has the two top choices for the Chiefs. Williams could be the best defensive line prospect to come along in a few years. He wouldn’t fill an immediate need because the Chiefs look set on their defensive line with Allen Bailey, Dontari Poe and Mike DeVito, but he still could be too tempting to pass up.
The same could be said for Mariota. The Chiefs don’t need a starting quarterback in that they have committed to Alex Smith as their starter. But Mariota could well wind up being the best player in this draft.
I could see the Chiefs having a spirited discussion between the two of them and settling on either one.
