Next year's back up QB (https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=266873)

Troy Smith. He would've been starting over Flacco if he didn't get tonsilitis and the raven defense had anything to say about it. He was at least as good as alex smith in the 3 games he started for San Francisco before they changed HC's and when everybody on SF looked like garbage.

The only concern is why didn't the dude get picked up anywhere this year. Still, guy with borderline starter talent. Couldn't hurt to have him as a backup.

Also, that he had that argument with Singletary... In fairness, singletary was actually the problem, it seems.

In this case the fighter is Pioli and Crennel and their jobs.

I really could not care less about who the backup will be. Draft Geno and run him out there. If he gets hurt who cares who the backup i,s a 5th round draft pick on a QB is not going to take us to the playoffs. 1 in a million chance.

Use this pick on some depth. We need it in a lot of places. Don't waste it on a QB who will not make any difference. If Geno gets hurt we play out the balance of the year and pick high again the next year. After a couple of years reworking the roster and we are really ready to compete then a backup QB is important, but not now.

What are people really expecting out of our 3rd stringer? Some of you act like if our 3rd stringer isn't Johnny Amazing then our QBs are terrible.

You need an elite starter. Your backup can be either a developmental guy with some upside or a game manager veteran. Your 3rd stringer is whatever is leftover. If you invest in him, it's to hope that he one day takes over the primary backup spot.

That's what Ricky Stanzi is. He's an adequate 3rd stringer until the new coaching staff gets a look at him. If they think he has upside, he should stay. If he doesn't, then he gets cut.

Our new franchise guy is going to need as much help as he can get in his first year. If that 3rd/4th round pick can be spent on a guy like Shayne Skov at ILB or Robert Lester at S, it eliminates the need to continue trotting out garbage, or finding crap free agents like Elam or Routt.

My dream scenario is to draft Geno, keep Stanzi, and sign Bruce Gradkowski in free agency. There needs to be SOME kind of veteran on that squad- it can't be all 100% developmental guys.

Smith
Gradkowski
Stanzi

That's a solid group of QBs, one that looks forward to the future. If we really need another young prospect, we should look to the draft next year.

Smith
Drew Stanton
Stanzi

Welcome back, Frankie.

Do you have an opinion on Geno Smith/Matt Barkley/Tyler Wilson?
