I am more interested in taking BPA and improving the team as a whole. QB's don't win games on their own. No matter what QB we draft or have on the roster, if our staff can't develop them then it wouldn't matter. If our staff DOES have the ability to develop a QB then Murray has displayed all of the tools necessary in college to compete at the NFL level. We don't need a 1st round QB, we need the right QB and we need to develop said QB! Murray is a talented and intelligent prospect. There is no reason he can't be developed. I believe we have a failure in the system here and Reid needs to go. Flame away............

This is the kind of post that sets us back 30+ years of reaching the goal of Winning a Super Bowl.
You can have both Murray and first round QB draft pick prospect duke it out in preseason and make them earn the job & have two quality quarterbacks for the sake of having better quarterbacks and backups than we have had in 40 ****ing years. This isn't rocket science it's about developing and make them accountable for their play. Chiefs have always just given the job to a vet quarterback and then the back up is a vet and the young quarterbacks don't get the field like Murray. We would be stuck with retread backup like Chase Daniel if something happened to Murray. I want to see Murray given a shot but not give him the starting job unless he can beat out a top prospect from the draft.
Then we could have trade bait if we hit a home run with either of them.
You wouldn't be wasting any ones time letting the first rounder QB get some time behind Murray because make him hungry for the job. I tell ya we can do something in 2017 draft with trade options. But really we need draft first round draft pick quarterback to make me happy and I'd have two quarterbacks on the Chiefs to root for. Better your odds by drafting a high rounder with a prospect like Murray and and the end of preseason have to decide who to start would be a good problem to have.
