I'm happy with it.
Getting a starting QB you expect to be a pro bowler immediately is worth #12, IMHO, and we did still have all our picks in the 3rd/4th - 75, 77, 107 and 108. I still haven't seen anything official regarding that 5th rounder by the way. 2 3rds, 4ths and 5ths wouldn't be too bad. Won't be quite as much fun to watch the draft, though... |

I knew desperation was going to kill us. No picks in the first two rounds. Hate to say it, but the Rams are the team sitting prettiest right now in the draft.

jl80,
I am with you. Why not even wait until you see who is available at #12? I like Green, but we overpaid. If Dan Morgan or Duece McCallister sits there tomorrow @12, I may vomit.

Denver,
I wish I shared your enthusiasm...The way I see it is we got DV, Trent Green and a 5th...They got a 1st (the 12th overall), 2nd and a 3rd.....I feel like I have spent the night on all fours in a jail cell with Bubba...

SH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!T. Oh well, he is the man as of now, and I am in back of him. But now the Brister deal looks even dumber, do we now not even draft a young QB in the mid rounds.

How exactly did desperation kill us?
We got the QB that our HC and OC [i]both[/i] openly wanted, and we got him at a significant discount from what the Rams asked. Let's have a little reality here, we got our starting QB for the #12 pick and that's exactly what you want to do with that pick: get an immediate impact starter. There was no way we were going to get him for any less, so we need to cut our losses, grin at our luck, and wish the best for 2001. You can't draft everyone at #12, a choice has to be made, and they went QB, for all intents and purposes. If we'd paid 12 and 75 for this I'd be bitching too, but we didn't and we sure as hell didn't overpay. |

JL80 I look at this way ; the other options we had were absolutly disgusting I mean c'mon Buerline?Dilfer?Brister?Cunningham?Collins?.....those guys are not options to start for the Chiefs I enjoy watching the Chiefs win ...Like it or not Vermiel was brought in to get us to the Super Bowl and to tutor Saunders to be his successor...this is good in the sense that Green will be here for at least 5 yrs and I'm sure in that time we will find our QBOTF and he would be the perfect mentor for a young guy...he!! who knows we might get our QBOTF in this years draft in the likes of Booty or Heupel ...But no matter what I will never boo Green and I hope no one else does:)

The addition of Horne and the fifth rounder really softens the blow. Good job Carl. Let's sign Dillon right now.

Getting Horne makes me feel slightly better...If we signed Dillon I would be happy but if you look at my other post we are going after a friggin career backup RB...
