My biggest fear was that the Chiefs would take Bulaga at #5. So I was happy when they had a chance to get Okung, or Berry. But, I'll say this, at 23 and given the Packers need at Tackle, I think thats a great pick for them. Bulaga as a 10-15 pick would have been good for anyone, he's ready to go from day 1 and will be a solid player for 10 years. I just didn't think he had top 5 talent, and that the reason the Chiefs would pick him was because he would be a guy who could handle a big pay cheque and still show up and play hard. For the Packers to get him at 23 looks like one of the best value picks of the first round.
