Mac will be available, but I dont see Al of all people passing on Long. Plus, he's great run stopper and a great passrusher with high motor.
Chefs-Jake Long
lucky bastards. He'll be a great pick for them.

A Long vs. Long matchup twice a year for the next decade could be fun to watch.
FWIW, Gholston ahead of Chris Long is not as far-fetched as some might think. Long is, essentially, a better version of Adam Carriker, so I'm not sure the Rams would take him. Gholston, on the other hand, is exactly the kind of speed/edge rusher who would thrive coming off the turf in St. Louis, a la Leonard Little . And with Little turning 34 this year and fading fast (one sack in seven games last year), Gholston may make a lot of sense for the Rams.
