I don't see the cost/benefit helping us by signing any of those guys.

LMAOLMAO

He only took the Niners to the NFC championship last year...yeah..he sucks!!!

I feel like Kolb, Flynn, Hasselback and even Vick would make more sense for KC than Smith. We probably will try to sign one if the contract is right... But we are still drafting our franchise QB too.

We don't need a veteran stopgap. No on any of those qbs

Yes, we need one. If the franchise QB isn't ready, you don't throw him out there and break him mentally. You don't just hand him the job. He has to work for it and learn from the veteran. If franchise QB shows he's ready to start week one, great. Start him then. But it would be beyond stupid not to sign a veteran.

If Hasselbeck wanted to play backup for one or two years to finish out his career, how the hell could you say no to that? He's more than capable of playing a few games here and there if he needs to. Most importantly, he's old and experienced (and didn't suck for most of his career like Huard). We haven't had that kind of QB on our roster since Trent Green.

Geno + Hasselbeck. Draft some bukkake 6th round rookie, have him compete with Stanzi, and let's get this ****ing show on the road.

Oh, and when Hasselbeck retires, you draft another QB in the 3rd/4th round in another year.

Reid didn't trot McNabb right out, and same with Kolb or Foles. Dorsey didn't trot Rodgers right out. We are more than likely going to see someone experienced in the WCO starting week one as our franchise guy gets ready to take over. If its a Wilson beating out Flynn week one situation there is no downfall at all to having that backup option still.

I'd like to see the Seahawks pick up Paul Kruger..

No, it's not.

So you plan on having three rookies? Or two rookies and Stanzi? You're a complete moron if you don't think a smart QB coach like Reid isn't going to bring in a veteran that can run his system to help start things in KC.

You don't need a washed up has been if you have your guy. Why bench the future?

The hell we don't. Contrary to popular belief around these parts, Geno Smith is not Andrew Luck caliber. He is not RG3 either. He is not going to come in here as a rookie and just play lights out on fire. He's going to struggle if he starts immediately. Just about everyone from this draft class will. If we don't have a stopgap in case that happens, we're going to be in for a long season, that is unless Ricky Stanzi ends up being the golden god and delivers us from evil.

"our guy" isn't in this draft. He was in last years' draft. There is no guarantee that any of these QBs in this draft will even make for solid starters. So far we've got a plethora of career backups.

PaulAllen 02-06-2013 01:54 AM

We're going to be in for a long season no matter what. This franchise isn't going to get fixed overnight. Don't make it harder than it has to be
