so we can't read into Clark's words...that's laughable

but we can read into Clark's intentions....that's just common sense

Take a ****ing chill pill dude. I WOULD be worried slightly if the GM had said this. It was said by our owner. ****ing BEFORE the combine. ****ing BEFORE we even have a GM.

Actually you could easily argue all of this. One, there is no clear cut QB like Luck was all of last year. There are differing opinions on the best QB this year, and it some people think they all stink.

And that said... you can argue Clark values the QB position. With his first big hire, he turned right around traded for his GM's preferred QB and gave him $60 million, even though he was unproven. It was a horrible, horrible decision... but you can't question the intent was to find a franchise QB over the long term. Incompentence does not equal lack of desire.

2nd round pick. Doesn't count.

I worry about this because I give a shit & care what they do. What they say now isn't apart of that worry. It's others that say there isn't a QB worth the pick or others that say we should get a retread from FA. That kind of bull shit is what pisses me off the most.

I agree. The talking heads that say there isn't a QB, blah blah annoys me too. But I know what my eyes tell me and I trust that this new regime will see the same thing and see that there are some good QBs who are certainly worth the first overall pick.

I still think the Chiefs take a QB with the #1 pick despite Clark's comments.

They absolutely have to. There is no other option. It's clearly the most glaring weakness and need on the team. There is no better way to improve the position than the draft.

He is just stating that there is no blue chip for sure prospect thats a guarantee to pick at #1 for QB. Doesn't mean the Chiefs won't draft a QB though. Nothing to fret over really.

I am so much looking forward to what happens at the combine. I think that is when the decision is going be made. They will still hold out for trade options but I don't think they would trade back too far and risk out on getting the best of the three QBs. This is the biggest reason I don't want to trade back is the risk of missing out on our guy.

If we don't take Geno Smith, isn't too early to assume Dorsey and Reid are incompetent?

I truly do believe THIS.

They may not have the same rookie years as Luck, RG3, Wislon, or Newton had. Honestly though, they all three seem to possess certain degrees of the poise, IQs, maturity, work ethic, charcter, and moxy....the "intangibles" that so many over-looked in drafting guys highly like Couch, Leaf, Russell, Mirer, and Quinn. They are within protypical standards of an NFL QBs from a physical perspective.

They may not be off the charts as some of the busts were, but they fit the bill physically--and from an leadership, intelligence, and the intangibles perspective possess skills which led to the others who failed seemed quite lacking in.

1. Begins to prepare the fans emotionally for whoever they pick at 1.

2. Begins the Poker play with the rest of the league.

No.

If they see something in Smith that they don't like and choose to trade back for their guy, be it Wilson, Barkley, or some late round first like Bray then I won't be calling for their heads.

If they continue the Chiefs way of waiting til the mid rounds and trading for a backup like Flynn then it won't be to early. Commence shooting.

Guys based on that interview there is no way in hell we are going to select a QB in this draft in any round. We are ****ed big time. I say we fire Andy Reid now or perhaps consider cheering for a team that tells us exactly who they want to draft before it starts.

I predict the Chiefs will select a QB in the 1st or 2nd round, and that guy will be the opening day starter. Reid no longer has the pressure to win now, and I have few doubts that he plans on developing a rookie QB he thinks he can win with down the road.
