He's still about the 20th best QB in the league however IMO. I'd like to try to do better than that. I love being 9-0, but I'd like to keep looking for that guy that can be a top 10 qb in the league for 10 years for us.
Now can you admit that Alex Smith is whole lot more Steve Bono than Trent Green? Because yes, as there were Cassell comparison on one end there were also Trent Green/Phillip Rivers/Rich Gannon comparisons being made on the other end.

regarding point #2, I trust that the Chiefs brass is always going to be looking for that guy that can be a top 5 QB talent. However, I'm also confident that they will do it without over reaching in the draft. I trust this front office alot. The moves they have made to put the team in position to be 9-0, merely 9 months since they took over, are remarkable. They have done the best job they could have in getting this team where it is. Whether or not they could have gotten a Geno Smith and had the same success, we will never know. It's a different offense, with different weapons, against different teams. We simply will never know.
The fact is, the men that have turned this franchise around, for whatever reason, liked the idea of giving up two first round picks for AS, over the idea of drafting a QB. Again, we will never know why. We will just know that they did. I trust them, and with the team at 9-0 after just 9 months "in office", I don't know how you can't.
