Geno & Wilson are both worthy of the #1 pick, easily. Bray & Barkley could go in the Top 10 too. Shit, Barkley was a projected Top 10 pick last year in the same draft as Luck & RG3.
Geno will go up the "rankings" after the combine & pro days. This happens every year. Kiper, McShay, etc...Will all have Geno & Wilson in the Top 10 after. They'll all move them up because they know teams that dont have a QB will take them...because they dont have one. It's all about positional value.
So then you're basically saying a potential franchise QB ranked 10th or so overall, isn't worth taking just 9 spots higher over a LT or a DT. You're saying you'd rather take a LT or DT over the most important position in sports, the most valuable position by far in football.
A position the Chiefs DO NOT HAVE. A position we haven't had for 7 years. A position we haven't drafted in the 1st round in 30 years. A position you must have in order to win and be a consistent playoff/Super Bowl threat year in and year out.
But yeah, lets take another position. Let's miss out on a potential franchise QB again so we can take a left tackle or a defensive tackle that aren't "sure things" either. Makes sense.
And in your opinion, why isn't Geno Smith worthy of the #1 pick? Why isn't Tyler Wilson? Why are they worse prospects than past Top 10 QBs like Gabbert, Locker, Bradford, Sanchez, Newton, etc...?
