I'm just going by what I see. We haven't seen much of anything good from Cooper his last 12 games.

I don't see how you could knock the pick outside of not wanting a LT 1 overall. It's not like Eric Fisher was some obscure nobody prior to the draft. |

At this point, we don't even know if Fisher will land. And until he does, Dorsey has made a hugely controversial move there. |

Dorsey did screw himself by not extending Houston prior to the season. That was playing with fire giving Alex the contract before Houston.
Alex's rate wasn't going to change. Now you're going to have to pay Houston the absolute top dollar as the best OLB in the game. |

Controversial? Wasn't it pretty much set in stone before the draft that he was going to us at 1 overall? Tyson Jackson was a controversial pick. Fisher wasn't.

The Chiefs had to choose which player they wanted to play the high-stakes franchise tag game with. They chose to wrap up Smith, and take on Houston. They were going to be in trouble with whomever was left, no matter what. |

Besides, you're confusing "controversial" with "surprising." Fisher being our pick may not have been surprising, but that doesn't mean it wasn't controversial. |

Electing to take an LT when we already had a high performing one was controversial. |

You need to watch more games. Fisher looks a lot better when put back in his natural spot. Put a decent guard next to him and our running game will be off to the races.

I was going to wait until the actual midpoint of the season, but since next week's game against the Jets isn't going to tell us anything, I might as well revisit this now. I was dead serious in the OP, and remain serious now in my re-assessment.
I'm going to highlight the key premises of the OP: Quote:
Quote:
Following all the departing free agents, I felt that the Chiefs, if built perfectly, could compete for a title as soon as 2016. I radically underestimated how well Reid would adjust his offense and Sutton would adjust his defense. I think, with a couple more pieces, this team is competing for a title next season. |

Of course, you get the benefit of not being around here during what many considered to be a dreadful offseason, a troubling preseason, and a chaotic opener. How were you feeling at the time of the Titans game? |
