He has come close to competing with either one of those guys. He's the #2 pick. that's pretty damn close.

I think he could top Eli. Reality is though, it's not a fair fight. He's not only competing with the player, but the "legend" they have become. Eli for his obvious name recognition, and Luck for what he has done. Also, there is a stigma attached to a QB who can run, even if you like that, it will scare you a little.

I would feel like we FINALLY took the correct FIRST STEP.

IMO, the only situation I like better is Manning + Tannehill.

Ummm... Based on Shanahan's close relationship with Fisher?

Are they insinuating that there will be collusion? You don't get ahead by cutting your buddies good deals. IF the skins get the pick, they'll have to put out the best offer.

I really don't see the Chiefs signing Manning and then drafting Tannehill. If you're going to get Manning, you have to give him the best supporting cast RIGHT NOW, which means drafting a Trent Richardson or an Olineman in the first round this year.

I think we should just play it safe and use our picks to upgrade our weak positions and build depth.

Trading picks for an unproven QB is stupid. You should only use picks to trade for proven veterans.

It has worked great in the past, so why wouldn't it work again?

the thig is is that the rams wouldnt even want to go for that. why pay dbowe when they can draft blackman.
there is no way we get rg3. hes awesome. Id love to see him in a chiefs jersey but there is no way hes playing for us next year. 3 other teams have much more to offer the rams then us.

Because they would know exactly what they have in Bowe, who is a front-line WR, despite what some on CP try to suggest.

You are discounting who is drafting, I would trade our whole 2009 draft for Matthew Stafford. The big draft day busts have been primarily RB's. That is foolish, someone you think is a franchise QB is worth considering particularly if you have a young team that you can patch holes through free agency. You aren't going to get a franchise QB in free agency.

But they did not trade the entire draft,think.

It doesn't hurt to ask, throw the whole draft at them. If they don't bite, nothing lost. If they do, you immediately energize your fan base and hopefully your team. If we had the history of solid mid round drafting successes recently it would different, but for the most part we are hit or miss on rounds 1, 2, and 3 as it is...even if RGIII flops, it doesn't set us much further back than we already are. I don't think it would be enough to give up our whole draft, just that it shouldn't be discounted as an option to offer.

Peyton is better and cheaper!

That's only because the neck is extra.

last year:

Tyson Jackson > BJ Raji

Doesn't excuse him from missing on guys like Orakpo, though.

I understand what Kenpom says, and I don't care. Relative value and worth, it's not even close. Raji + Houston would be two very fine additions.
