Would drafting a QB in the first round renew your excitement for the Chiefs?

Did we just screw up our draft position (the horror!!)? Are the villagers still lighting torches?
My contention is we need to see now what we have in-house before we pin the 2016 and beyond seasons on the unknown talent of a college player.

Exactly! Drafting a QB in the 1st round just for the sake of drafting one is reeruned logic. One post suggested it was just to show that the "mindset" has changed. If Murray got a shot and looked promising then drafting another QB in the 1st round versus the best player available hurts this team! I am more interested in taking BPA and improving the team as a whole. QB's don't win games on their own. No matter what QB we draft or have on the roster, if our staff can't develop them then it wouldn't matter. If our staff DOES have the ability to develop a QB then Murray has displayed all of the tools necessary in college to compete at the NFL level. We don't need a 1st round QB, we need the right QB and we need to develop said QB! Murray is a talented and intelligent prospect. There is no reason he can't be developed. I believe we have a failure in the system here and Reid needs to go. Flame away............
