As in league-wide notoriety? Dante Hall? Will Shields? Does T-Rich count since we didn't draft him?

Priest Holmes wasn't exactly a household name before coming to the Chiefs either. I think FA are fair game in the debate too.

Absolutely freaking not. We've got a lot of holes that can and should be filled in the first round. QB is definitely not one of them.

Ideally, we'll never be back this way again - drafting this high. Need to spend the pick on someone who's going to help the team this season. I don't think McPherson is that guy.

Do you think we developed him? He had a 1,000 yard season prior to joining the Chiefs.

I was thinking of guys that we drafted, but we did develop T-Rich, so I think I should have broadened ny scope.

We developed Waters.

I wouldn't include Derrick Thomas in the list though - he was "developed" before he was ever drafted...

Would you guys shut the hell up.

You're ruining perfectly good, albeit short, rant!

Actually if it was any good, you and Phil wouldn't have thrown so damn many names at me.

Perhaps my question should have been how many players have gotten significant playing times as rookies?
