While Alex Smith will seem like Matt Cassel on a good day initially, Chiefs fans still living in the past will realize that a mediocre QB cannot carry a team. A DT cannot carry a team. A LT cannot carry a team.
A QB carries the team on his shoulders. The rest are just a supporting cast. As such, the #1 pick in any draft has to be a QB unless EVERY prospect is of the talent level of Alex Smith and Matt Cassel.

The real problem is that all of our real talent will be pretty damn old in 3 years.
