So its easier to play OG than LT?

It's less demanding. But it requires a different skillset. There are some left tackles who would get their ass destroyed at G. Like McIntosh.

That's what sucks about Chiefs Planet. At this point if a person puts forth an idea they're just asking to be lamb basted or called names. And if you mention an idea people immediately think that's what you want to do in the draft. For example before we acquired Cassel I posted that if not Curry then who do we draft at #3? I brought up E. Brown and the next post after mine was Hamas and I bet you can guess what his reply was. "****ing idiot". There was a time I would tell people about Chiefs Planet and that they should visit. But now I wouldn't send anybody to the Planet because it's kind of a disgrace the way poeple treat others here.

Dude, the internet is like that. It's everywhere. And much worse on other sites. You don't know how good we have it here. I can tell people to **** off and it doesn't result in total meltdowns.

Brilliant.

The more you post, the more I realize how little you know about football.

Dane still knows more than most people that post here. Atleast his thoughts have logical reason behind them which is more than I can say for most...

That QB thing is also perpetuated by numerous things, being a fan of this team where I'm 28 years old and I can't recall the Chiefs drafting a QB in the 1st round I was to young..think about that. You grow up with that it's ingrained as something that shouldn't be done...ad in that you have ESPN, NFL Network so forth constantly saying if you miss on a QB you'll ruin your franchise for 100 years. With this fan base you have alot of people who loved the 90s that was enough for them so that's what they're thinking about. They don't want to take any sort of major risk that leaves the team bad longer...

Oh and of course for the Phil comment about how people are treated here. I don't really know what people expect. All I ask of posters is logical reason to what they say, if you consistently say really dumb things I am not going to be nice to you.

Watch I'll ask you this simple question, isn't it overkill to draft a OT top 5 when we already have a LT on the roster?

How many teams in the league start more than 1, 1st round draft pick on their OL's right now? How many of them have 2 of them as top 20 picks with one of them coming in the top 3?

That will give you a pretty good idea of the serious overkill that we're talking about.

Offensive line is value but it isn't so valuable that you go to ridiculous levels.

I don't know, but it is a premiere position. I'd rather trade out of the #3 spot, but I would be cool with Monroe at #3 if the Pioli braintrust went that way. You've got to protect QB in the NFL. How many NFL teams succeeded in the playoffs with a backup QB?
