I really imagine KC wants Ryan.. I don't think they are convinced Croyle is their man.
The difference last year from #4 to #6 was about $5 Mill in contract value (same amount of years).

Interesting thoughts... I think KC is really after a LT though which makes me thing this.
Assuming that Jake Long, Chris Long and Dorsey/Ryan are the top 3 picks. That leaves us at #4 with Gholston, McFadden, Ellis & Clady all players that would make us better.
If we trade with the Jets and they take Gholston then KC will have to decide between Ryan, Clady or trading down. If they take Ryan or Clady then we are set with McFadden at #6 plus the pick/player from the Jets.
If KC trades down we take Clady, Dorsey or Ellis and still are in good shape and save money and fill a bigger need...
