That's absolutely untrue. There was NO ONE saying that Eli Manning was a second round talent, let alone Philip Rivers. If there were questions about anyone, it was Roethlisberger but to anyone that watch him play or saw his bowl game, they saw the same exact guy that started 15 games for the Steelers that year.

No one is questioning these things about Barkley, Smith, Wilson, Bray, etc. They have all very visible warts and concerns and none have proven worthy of a first round grade, let alone #1 overall.
Out of that group, Barkley did himself the biggest disservice by returning to USC his senior season. Now, his already questionable arm strength will be scrutinized even more.
Even so, without a true starting QB on the Chiefs roster, did you really expect them to wait until March 27th to even watch him work out?
