big newsflash, we haven't seen all these fabulous patriots receivers on the field yet. and jason whitlock doesn't go to many practices (according to herm), and (according to jason whitlock) when he does go, he's mostly looking to gossip with other reporters.

according to the last time i checked:

chiefs
kennison - first round pick
bowe - first round pick
parker - 2nd round pick

patriots
wes welker - undrafted free agent

randy moss - do we even need to go into this overrated piece of crap?

troy brown - 8th round pick - that's not even a round anymore.

reche caldwell - 2nd round bust in san diego. always hurt.

donte stallworth - in the leagues substance abuse program, has injury concerns, and while he signed a nice contract, it is an incentive contract, which means the patriots can easily cut him loose when he starts sucking.

moss and stallworth, the starting wr's for the patriots in 2007 are so solid that they both got traded for 4th round draft picks and freakin mark simoneau.


that's not to say the patriots couldn't kick our ass, but gimme a break. there's nothing wrong with undrafted and late round guys as long as they can play. hell, the patriots just sent a 4th round pick to miami for a guy that was originally undrafted.

Samie Parker was a 4th round pick and Eddie Kennison wasn't taken in the 1st round by the Chiefs....if you wanna do it that way then both the Pats starters are 1st rounders.

That "overrated piece of crap" would still start on this team....and now he's going to play for the best team in the league it must suck to be Randy Moss right now eh?

xen: you have no clue...really.

Patriots: A GM who's some guy who drafted Tom Brady

Chiefs: Carl Peterson

That is the only analysis you need to breakdown any Whitlock article or 88 post.

yeah we should have signed some 30 year old, and paid him big money in our rebuilding year.

At this point I expect spot duty from him this year, and a serious run for a starting job in 2008.

Sucks.



He will be a starter. Still way early. Not one preseason game yet.

sorry, didn't know that you ladies had a preset etiquette for that.

Mecca 08-03-2007 09:16 AM

No but really comparing the Chiefs and Pats isn't exactly wise they're teams in different spots....However the Pats WR talent is much better than ours but it was really their only missing piece so they could go out and focus on it the Chiefs have many things to worry about.

The guys on 610 just asked Rhonda Moss her opinion on this, and her response was "I think you need to see more than 1 or 2 practices before you start talking about the wide receivers."

She also said that Kennison's had his (typical) drops, too. But the context was that Whitlock was making something out of nothing.

I wouldnt so much call it an etiquette, but rather an orthodoxy.

good to know. btw, not saying that pioli and belichick don't kick carl's ass, but using the whole brady thing is not a good comparison. if he was so smart on brady, he wouldn't have waited till the end of the 6th round to take him.

hell, they took antwan harris in the 6th round before brady. brady was an afterthought they took a flyer on and it turned out great, so let's not act like they knew what he'd become when they drafted him, cause they didn't.

in fact, i'd go so far as to say their entire 2000 draft class besides brady sucked.

Your logic is strong, I'm just warning you...any topic about Peterson moves from logic to the surreal with many.
