Clark says; I've had some very good years since I inherited my team from my old man. **** you all

What the **** is wrong with some of you children? You do realize there's going to be another draft next year, right? This is not the last chance in recorded history to draft a QB in the draft.

Nobody on this board is against a reasonable trade to land a QB but this "let's trade every pick this year, next year, and the year after that and a package of Bowe, Carr, Charles, and Berry to draft RG III!" is just tiresomely stupid.

lol, what makes you think we wont be again 7-9 and 9-7 and again be in a position with nothing but our dicks in our hands because we are picking 11-20 again? That is another year older. THen we can say, dont trade the whole draft, we can wait til 2014, for a qb. lol when does it end? The Chiefs fans have been waiting since 1970 for another franchise qb.

That's not what I'm saying and you know it. What I'm saying is that you don't give up an entire draft and then some for one player. That idea is simply idiotic. It has nothing to do with drafting scared...it's all about not over-reacting to the hype and having the brain to realize football is 11 on 11.

I didn't realize franchise QB's were unavailable after pick 10 in the draft?? That sucks.

There's always next year, until it's next year, of course.

It's not entirely unreasonable to imagine moving up from 11 overall, and being averse to risk is not going to serve this franchise well in the long term.

They are, but its a bigger risk. All i am saying is 40 ****ing years! When does it stop. Since what mid 80's since we have even tried. I was just a damned kid watching Transformers after i got out of grade school. lol Its been a while.

So drafting a QB between 11-20 is a risk but trading your entire draft+ for RG3 isn't?

You're forgetting the great Pat Barnes draft?

Huge risk. If the QB pans out, however, it's well worth it.

Lock in on the prospect and don't hesitate. Not sure if RGIII is that guy, but I would certainly support the risk if Pioli believes he is.

Let's do nothing then, because it has worked so well for the past 40+ years.

He can't just "pan out.". He needs to win a few Super Bowls to be worth that type of gamble. You won't know unless you try, however I'm afraid the hype of RG3 is bigger than the payoff will be. Either way, an entire draft is not worth one player...Never will be.

You're putting arbitrary distinctions on the value, much like posters who claim that, essentially, trading away a draft could set a franchise back "six years." Not five, not seven. Six.

The math is hard and fast on this fact.

If you can acquire a true franchise QB, there's damn near no price too steep. And this price sure as **** isn't one single draft, though I know we'd desperately miss all of the McClusters and Arenaseseses of the world.
