Shawn Zobel on 610
 

In a few minutes...

...itll be interesting to hear his view on the draft. One of those who think there isn't a QB worth #1 overall in this draft.

Im at work tho...it'd be nice if someone posted the play-by-play.

So if not QB, is there even a consensus Best Player overall at #1 ?

He thinks we should take Te'o if we get the first pick.

says picking a qb is picking the best of the worst and Barkley is it.

Barkley should be in a WCO and Geno should be in the opposite type of offense. Geno would fit well in Philly with Maclin and Jackson because he required playmakers/ speedsters to be efficient in the NFL.

said smith "started throwing ints when big 12 play started"...


3...all year...

"struggled....against Oklahoma"

wants us to draft a LB

kill me

yup. Not really resounding reviews of this QB class. Don't care, draft one anyway and if it fails try again. We must find OUR QB

Should sign Alex Smith and draft a QB in the 2nd round :facepalm:

What a ****ing moron.

He just said trade for Alex Smith and draft a pass rusher.

Uh, **** NO on Alex Smith.

I'm actually okay with not taking a QB as long as you nail the pick, but we'd have to give up too much for Alex Smith and he SUCKS.

I'd rather get Barkley or Geno (especially Geno) than trade for Smith, and it's not even close.

Anyone who thinks Geno Smith isn't worth #1 over all pick is and idiot ****tard.

This man lost cred with me when he recommended we trade for Flynn or Smith as a stopgap

Who is this guy and how can he be so incompetent?

frankly, I'm not impressed with the people I've heard commenting on the QBs...they seem to have a lot of preconceived categories into which they slot QBs...

if you weren't blown away by what Smith did against Oklahoma, then I can't help you...

no mention of Smith carrying the worst defense in football, no mention of 3 ints all year...I'm just not getting the sense he's really paid close attention

suggesting we draft a LB and draft a QB in the second is painfully dumb, imho...but that's the drumbeat we're going to hear...and KC radio is eating it up, and I imagine the average KC fan will as well

Some people are just so clueless. Smith's numbers are virtually identical if not better than RG3's last year in Big 12 play. The only thing RG3 was signficantly higher on was QB rating. And the idea that he dropped off with Big 12 play is ludicrous considering he went from 80% completion to 70%...yeah he is awful. :rolleyes:

Here's the hidden bonus in getting the #1 overall pick:

There's no way to "get ahead" of the #1 pick. There's no need for subterfuge or smoke an mirrors.

That's why we almost always know who the #1 pick is going to be WELL BEFORE the actual draft in April.

This is where SOC has the best chance to make a REAL difference. If word starts to get out that the Chiefs are eye-ing a LB or OT, hit the Twitter and Facebook, HARD.

We got three outstanding LBers on this team. I fail to see why we would need to spend a first on a MLB? Our offense has got to be the worst in the league and can't find a way to get the ball in the endzone and QB is the number 1 problem for this team to do so.

I think there must be something in the BBQ in this town. 75% of people around here have an allergic reaction and it makes them football reeruned.

all caps DEB eats a LOT of BBQ

This guy is saying all of the exact opposite of what we should actually do.


Is he saying this garbage strictly for ratings?

Don't get too worked up about it.

These were the same people that didn't think RG3's game would translate to the NFL.

RG3 didn't REALLY get play as a potential #1 pick until it was all but certain that Luck actually WAS the #1 pick. Suddenly, the Redskins trade up and everybody falls in line.

and now 610 is on the 'draft a LB' first and sign alex smith


jesus...30 ****ING YEARS AND YOU HAVE LEARNED NOTHING

and the first caller says "we need an impact defender..."

I'm going to kill myself 1000 times today

JFC...

i could kiss this caller...finally some sense

"you draft an inside LB that high...you didn't lose all these games to take the 3rd best QB"

Its almost if alot of analysts and fans attitude is "If if nots Elway, Manning, or Luck, then dont draft a QB"

WTF?? IM sorry, but your just not always going to get that lucky. Sometimes you get a Bledsoe, Kerry Collins or a David Klinger. That doesnt mean you shouldnt try, because its the most important position on the field. If it doesnt work out, you try again a few years later.

they are just saying that to blow smoke, so no one trades up in front of us...oh wait

We need to thin the herd.

OMFG! reeruned shit! We have impact defenders, they can't right now because we have no dline pass rushers. We need to draft a QB 1 and WR 2nd rd

You should listen to 810.

They'll at least tell you what you want, even if Petro has to choke back the bile to do it. :)

and now it is a fact, "there is no luck or RG3"....over and over and over...

i hate this franchise and media and fanbase with the power of 50000000lbs of cheese

Bledsoe and Collins both played in Super Bowls.

I'm just sayin'.

Someone should set off an EMP over 610.

that's exactly what it is

which is just another version of "oh no, it risky!"

people will spend another first round pick on our front 7...but a QB is risky

This fanbase has been abused for so long, they're overly cautious.

Never fear, WHB guys have it right - they'll take a QB because they simply can't do anything else. They HAVE to take a QB or risk fracturing the fanbase in a way that is irreparable.

No one knows for sure there's no luck or RG3! Ya no shit those QBs are once in a lifetime QBs. All these so called experts can lick a goat ass. Ill take the top QB overall and let's do this

The fanbase has been calling in saying we should draft defense.


I am starting to believe we are in the minority.

oh yea i know.....i meant that they are not Hall of Famers. Just Hall of Very Good or Hall of Solid. : )

this fanbase is just dumb

we haven't drafted a first round QB in anyone's lifetime..there is nothing to be afraid of...there is no ryan leaf in our history

we've drafted other positions over and over and over, most of them failures and yet no one thinks it is risky

Very, very small sample size and only on one station.

Yesterday afternoon on the final hour of the program, they took calls and it was almost 3:1 in favor of the "take a QB or else" crowd.

Considering the new rookie pay scale drafting a bust QB (or any other position, say 5 tech DL from LSU) is less of a risk than before.

But I fear that the Chiefs' fanbase has been so brainwashed with the "a QB in the first round is too risky" line that we can never really get it back on track. Unless we clean house and start over with a new GM, HC and coaching staff.

The thing is:

This time LAST YEAR there was NO RG3.

RG3 wasn't a "sure thing" until the couple of weeks leading up to the draft, after the Redskins moved up.

During the season last year, when things REALLY count, there was as many questions about RG3 as there are about Geno Smith.

I just figured it out: Only the mouthbreathers listen to this POS's show.

Makes sense.

It's the ****ing curse of Todd Blackledge and stupid True Chiefs Fans. ****ing Carl Petersons fault.:cuss:

Shawn Zobel is a fucking moron.

Draft a DL?
Trade for Alex Smith because he's a game manager?

douche.

They're going to win AT MOST 2 games. There's almost no chance the current staff is retained.

and most people thought washington was crazy for trading those picks...

I so want to believe this, I really do. But there is a part of me that fears that Clark will keep this staff on for another season. Or fire Pioli and RAC but retain parts of this loser staff a burden the new HC with the dregs that currently haunt 1 Arrowhead Drive.

That's because dumbasses listen to 610.

I'll be honest, I can't listen to 610.

Yes, Keitzman talks about Golf and NASCAR. Yes, Steve and Nate talk about sausage and KU.

But at the end of the day, when they DO actually talk Chiefs on 810, they know what they're talking about.

610 does talk a lot of Chiefs but I think they talk TOO MUCH. It gets watered down and ultimately, they run out of substance and have to resort to dumbassery to keep the discussion going.

610 was the best with Nick Wright by far. But without him, the Big Show in the afternoons is just awful. And now the other shows are having to be the flagship shows and they can't handle it.

As much as I would love to add Jarvis Jones or Teo or Star to this defense, QB is our #1 need by far and it isn't even close. Barkley and Smith are about as safe quarterback picks you can get. It sucks they just followed Luck and Griffin.

If Pioli is still here, that ****er will try to do this very thing.

RG3 & Luck are pretty talented players. Guys like that don't come along but once a decade or so. This class isn't great, but the Chiefs need a QB and should grab the best one available first up.

Te'o is great and all, there are a few defensive players that are good in this draft. But I would bite the bullet and take a QB. Too many other teams need a QB in this draft, so it's going to be a reach, but a necessity.

Still on the Barkley bandwagon, eh? :)

That's the thing. Black Bobs everywhere love to harp that there isn't a consensus best #1 overall QB, but when asked who IS this can't-miss-8th-wonder-of-the-world player, they say, "Well, uh.. there's Manti Te'o or Jarvis Jones... and Star Lotuleilei is pretty good." They can't name a consensus top non-QB that they so desperately want us to have.

It's the dumbest shit I've ever seen.

28-63 since 2007...

But yea, its too risky to draft a QB.

I think these coaches are gone.

It's Pioli I'm worried about.

After 30 yrs without drafting a QB in the 1st and national sports media talking about it, there is NO WAY they can avoid doing it.

Yeah I actually change it from the Big Show to KK in the afternoon regrettably.

the Big Show is just so bad. You have Josh Vernier whose cheesy radio voice just bugs me. Not his fault but it does. Then Binkley. One of the biggest radio meat-heads I've heard in some time. Plus he has this whole bash his wife radio stick that isn't funny at all.

It's a horrible show.

I do like Danny Parkins & Cdot though in the afternoon.

This is the best year to take who we (the team) thinks is the best QB.

We'll have the pick of the litter. Cap space. No having to trade up or give a player. No giving up future pics.

JUST...****ING...TAKE....ONE...

Yeah, they are awful. Pearson isn't very good, either.

Still, 610 sports has much higher ratings than Nick's new station. I wish he'd come back.

If we don't pick a QB first there will be mass hysteria in this house.

Are the Chiefs the ONLY team in the NFL that hasn't drafted a QB in the 1st RD in almost 30 years?

And these dumbasses that are calling for defense in the 1st RD can GTFO. Defense was the only thing stopping a complete and utter blowout Sunday. They held the #2 ranked offense to 17 pts. Had we actually had a signal caller that could lead the team to a TD, we may have even...GASP...WON the game!!

Are people REALLY this stupid?!?!? Trade for Tebow...Trade for Alex Smith...WTF!??! Are these people watching the same train wreck I am week in/week out?!?

:banghead:

I think this is just the stupid ebbs and flows of the off-season (which we are in) that you hear about.

Guys stock will rise & fall. Right now it's down on QBs. But if any of the guys have a big bowl game, they'll rise. Or during Matt, Tyler or Geno's pro day it'll rise.

I still think we'll just take QB #1 overall so I'm not freaking out. But yeah it is dumb to think that of all organizations, this one could neglect QB again.

So, basically he's another clueless dumb**** like Knowmo.

Yeah, let's pick up a 49er QB. This would only be the 4th time and we have so many rings to show for it.

FML

Seriously, anyone wanting an ILB with the number 1 overall pick has no ****ing clue about the game of football and all takes prior and future are null and void of credibility.

Yep. Because CP members seem to be pretty much in agreement on that, for the most part.

But it blows my mind the ineptitude of some of the people that call in saying draft an ILB with the #1 pick, or anything BUT a QB. Maybe Geno Smith isn't the ultimate answer, but take the chance that he is or move on in 2 seasons by drafting another QB.

I just cannot believe anyone would even RISK going into next season with either of the QB's that we have.

The next HC/GM will need to completely clean house to make me believe again.

Yep!

The media hates the Chiefs. They defend Cassel and Pioli until there is absolutely no choice but to admit they suck. Then they say shit like we should go get Alex Smith.

Would they want Alex ****ing Smith to be the QB of their team? No ****ing way. But he is fine for the Chiefs.

We have the worst QB's in the league and an average MLB. Teams with high level QB's can hide the flaws on their team. You have a QB like Geno available that possesses all the tolls you look for in a "Franchise QB". The answer: Hmmmm, TEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dumb****s.

Alex Smith was almost out if the league till Harbaugh showed up.... No thank you.

Moran

This is why soc should start preaching first round QB

wut?

Philly is a WCO

If they pass on Geno for a linebacker or dl, I'm out

The defense was good enough for the team to beat Baltimore, Denver, and Pittsburgh with even average QB play, the team has gone multiple games without finding the endzone, and defense is the main culprit. Some fans don't deserve to watch this game.

It is astonishing to me just how much better a playcaller Bill Muir, falling asleep in the booth is than Daboll. LMAO

Daboll is probably too busy trying to extract the orange juice pulp from his beard.

This is insanity...its easy...Geno Smith is the pick, plain and simple.
