Jackson was an out of nowhere pick but, it definately could have been worse. We could have wound up with Jason Smith or Aaron Curry. Alot of fans wanted one of those guys.

We also couldve wound up with Sanchez, Raji, Orakpo, Cushing, Mack, Maybin, Crabtree, Freeman, Maclin, Harvin.... all guys who shouldve legitimately gone before Tyson Jackson even in the context of the time.

There is no doubt Pioli's a bust. Also, I agree about not giving Cassel a contract right away. He should have waited.

Slick, we traded for Cassel the same year Freeman was drafted so that wasn't going to happen.

This is a stupid argument. Almost every position was a problem when Pioli got here.

Also, do you honestly think we would be any better off with Sanchez or Freemen?

Like I already stated in a previous post......he should have waited to trade for Cassel. And even if you eliminate the need for QB......which is more important to a 3-4....NT or DE? He should have drafted Raji instead of Jackson. Pioli is a ****ing moron.

Sad to think that at the time, Pioli was the best GM choice out there and most everyone was extremely excited to have him come to the Chiefs.

Yep, that's the crapshoot I'm talking about. it's easy to see that now but, you gotta realize none of the top 10 teams had Orakpo, Cushing, Mack, Crabtree, Freeman, Maclin, Harvin on the radar there. Hindsight is 20/20.

The only opportunity Pioli has had in his time here to get a QB was in 2009?

Even if you eliminate certain ones.....we still had a shot at Andy Dalton and Josh Freeman. Both have done more (even if they lack consistency) than Cassel has ever done.

I have to listen to the full interview.
I'm on lunch so I'm going to do that now.

I wouldn't say Freeman's done more. He's had 1 good season in the NFL.
Cassel's had two. If we're arguing skillset...no question.

Dalton HAS been more consistent.
He's the best alternative to any of the others you cited.

Yep, you deserve defensive lineman every single year in the first round.

Don't worry about being lumped in with the Chiefs fans on this board, you don't even have the intelligence to even post here. No one will mistake you for someone with a ****ing clue.

The important trade the Chiefs have to consider is really simple. Fans or Scott.

The fact he is trotting around doing press meetings makes me sick. It tells me we are stuck with him. Not one more dime from me. FU Scott.

Can you read? I just said in the CONTEXT OF THE TIME.

Tyson Jackson was NOT a worthy top 10 pick in 2009

I heard reports of several GMs and war rooms that started laughing and snickering when that pick was made.

Isn't that like sayin we traded for Jackson last year, gave Flynn a nice contract no way do we take a QB in the draft this year and start him.

I'm not. I'm suggesting that beating those two struggling teams isn't as impressive as it sounds.

One of those wins took the worst call in NFL history.

Guys ... this is bad. Real bad.

Just an FYI.

I see what you are saying but who did they take? We came out OK in the top 10 in my opinion.
