Freeman- No. Everyone I talk to says he reminds me of JaMarcus Russell... in case anyone has noticed that doesn't mean a good thing. JaMarcus Russell was a great passer in college but with the Raiders he's a joke, the Raiders were more of a pass efficient team under Kerry Collins than they are under JaMarcus, if the Raiders run game didn't have McFadden they wouldn't have beaten us like that... well if we didn't start Thigpen too but you get my drift. Josh Freeman is just physical, that's all people are drooling about, but that doesn't mean he's a good quarterback.
Bradford- I'd take him with a top Olineman like Oher, but the way people are talking is that its gonna be a heavy QB first round unlike last year with only Ryan and Flacco, so I don't think we can get both. He's the smartest quarterbacks with the best decision making but without the right system I don't think he can be that Peyton Manning. Also Alex Smith was the most intelligent quarterback and best decision maker and now he's sitting and second to some guy you've never really heard of and Aaron Rodgers, which is playing almost as well as Favre did with that Packers organization. Bradford could be a very good QB but if he goes to the Lions I dont think he'll get anywhere.
Stafford- Yes he can make mistakes, he can stare down a reciever every now and then but look at his throwing ability. Every QB in college can throw the ball 50 or 60 yards in a hail-mary type fashion, but Stafford ZINGS, ROCKETS, BULLETS that pass. Every single one of his passes has enough velocity on it to kill small children and cheerleaders who are foolish enough to get in its path. Here in KC we don't need a person who can hand off the ball with little passing ability, or else we'd have Huard. We don't need a QB with amazing physical traits, of that of a TE, but can't make good decisions. We don't need need a premadonna from USC who is in his first real year of starting as a QB and just happens to have a good record against half-ass teams in a USC system that made Matt Leinart look good. We need a gunslinger, we need a guy who will take a ****in chance, who we can say he might have thrown it into double coverage but he got it there before the coverage could close. We need a guy who will reenergize the franchise and put fans in the stands again. We need an Elway, we need a Palmer, we need a Manning, and we need a Cutler. He's the best prospect coming out of college for the next 3 years it seems. This is what we need, and if there is a great draft pick that we can get right now to lead our team with excitement,electricity, and the best arm we've seen in quite some time. My friends, we need Matt Stafford.

Bradford is a Sophomore so he is a non issue for next years draft. *edit* (he may be a redshirt Soph, if so he would be eligible) If eligible I like him. I would lean towards Stafford head to head but would be happy with either one of these guys in a KC uni.
Sanchez: I agree pretty much...he is average at best IMO.
Freeman: PUH leeze...no thanks. Never. Nope.
IF we pick QB early in next years draft Stafford is the ONLY guy worthy of being picked before round 3
if Bradford does not come out of college early.
P.S. Just because Stafford has a cannon for an arm doesn't mean much...Brody can rifle the ball too and it hasn't done him much good.
