Honestly, I don't think that Pioli's draft record with the Patriots amounts to a hill of beans when assessing the 2009 Chiefs draft.
The Patriots went 5-11 in 2000 and won the Super Bowl in 2001. The team that he and Belichick inherited was far more talented than the Chiefs current roster, plus they picked up additional picks from the Jets in the Curtis Martin trade.
I'm not suggesting that Crabtree is the pick at #3 (I'd actually be genuinely shocked) but I don't Pioli's past comes into play in the next two NFL Drafts, due to such a talent depleted roster AND very few (if any) substantial upgrades via free agency.
