I'm realistic though. Dane considered the 4th for Roaf and the 1st for Green fails because we didn't win a Super Bowl which is ridiculous because our offense had little to do with that.

It's still fail. The Chiefs passed on a decade or more of good to great play from Drew Brees for four good years of Trent Green (2002-2005). How could you possibly argue otherwise?
As for Roaf, the Chiefs gave up a third rounder for him, not a fourth. He didn't play well in 2002 because he was still recovering from surgery the prior season but played great in 2003, 2004 and part of 2005. Again, I would not categorize that as a great trade.
Let's just hope that the Chiefs didn't trade away the rights to another Drew Brees...
