Interesting.
I'd be somewhat tempted to consider it, but I think even with homerism aside I'd keep the kid we drafted.

Osweiler's a big (literally) hit-or-miss prospect. Stanzi had a little more balance coming out of college and has a year's worth of experience in the NFL. Simply, he's more valuable than Osweiler. And if you're in the Chiefs' situation and don't have Peyton Manning as your starting QB, Stanzi BY FAR makes more sense.
Besides, what's Osweiler's ceiling? Big Ben? Hell yeah I'd love to have Big Ben as my starting QB. What's Stanzi's ceiling? Tom Brady. Also pretty damn good.
Both QBs have the same incredibly small chance of achieving their respective ceilings, but Stanzi IS one year into his NFL career. He's got a significant leg up.
Screw homerism being a reason you'd keep him. I think he's just as good as Osweiler as a prospect. It makes no ****ing sense whatsoever to draft a developmental QB then chuck him in the garbage after one year and take another guy when the potential payoff isn't all that much better. In fact, it's far more likely that Osweiler is a giant bust based on the steep learning curve he has.
