He's got one or two drafts where he's hitting on 30-40% of his picks. A couple drafts like 2010 only gave him two good players, but damn those are two ****ing amazing players. If the Chiefs could draft as well as this lineup after we take Geno Smith, we won't need more than 2 seasons to take over the AFC West. With a little bit of luck involved in the coaching hire, and if Geno Smith is as good as I think he can be, we'll be contending for the Super Bowl shortly after. Those Mark Ross drafts in Kansas City is what we need. |

But I also know that Harrison had a solid rookie season without Manning. Eddie Kennison also had a good rookie season. The difference in their careers is the QB, but Manning is not solely responsible for Harrison. He was a good receiver that just benefitted from better QB play in his second season on, while Kennison had crap at QB throughout most of his career. |
Remember when Kuharich was doing a good job? We only have Tamba Hali, Dwayne Bowe, and a few leftovers from 2008 still on the team. Three years of drafts, with two of those years only generating one ultra-stud pick each is all it took to lay a good foundation.
We need more and better players, but if we draft like Kuharich did in those three seasons, the Chiefs are looking VERY good. |
I'm just saying.
I think Peyton Manning would have had equal success anywhere he went...whether it was Indy, KC, Cleveland, New England, etc... would Tom Brady have? I don't know, but I've always maintained he tripped into the perfect storm and through early success and with his moxie and swagger he developed into what he is today. |
I've said it before. Schefter does not acknowledge the Chiefs' existence. Doesn't he have a Denver bias, too?

I'd trade every pick Pioli has made for someone like Watt, Von Miller, JPP, Aldon Smith, AJ Green, Julio Jones, etc. Hell, look at the Packers. Have they missed on a WR pick? None of their young guys are R1 picks. No one is saying you have to hit on every pick. But you better hit on some, and you better be picking some gamechangers along the way as well. |

It is a little early to say much about the 2012 draft but Wilson has had a very mediocre season when Bradshaw and co. missed a lot of time. Amukamara can't seem to stay healthy. The rest of 2011 is not impressive. Pierre-Paul is good and Joseph has been ok but he has stomped a player for retaliating because Joseph was trying to pull him off the pile. The rest of 2010 is meh. Hakeem Nicks is ok but is inconsistent at best and is dinged up easily. The rest of 2009 is pretty meh. Kenny Philips and Terrell Thomas are ok but not great shut down anything. There is a lot of mediocrity through all of those drafts. |
