Chiefs Cassel or Sanchez? - Page 7

KCBOSS1 · 04-11-2009, 06:45 PM

I realize that we are where we are, but the more I see about Sanchez, the more I'm afraid that a few years down the road, we may look back and realize that we passed up on the franchise guy that we've been looking for. I know that Cassel played ok last year, but is he a franchise guy? ...likely not. Thoughts?

We just watched one of them run his teams young franchise player out of town over it.

that probably had as much to do with the franchise player as wanting something "comfortable"

they were saying that because this is the same debate that's been going on for months. If you start a thread with this as the topic your going to get a 100 post thread at least no matter what.

I'll say it again the only way this team should be taking Oline is if they trade down significantly.

I like Curry fine. Seems like a good pick. I don't like getting another LT early in the draft. I'm with milkman on that. Don't think there's any possibility of us taking Sanchez and I was for Cassel. In retrospect after all of the most recent coverage, I think we missed it.

So how do you know Monroe is better than Albert? They didn't believe that in college and teams last year didn't seem to believe Albert was this god you are claiming otherwise he would have been drafted #1 overall, not #15...

I'd rather pay 2 QB's for this year then trade one next year or flip one for picks in this draft than take Curry in the top 3.

All this would do is guarantee that Branden Albert would ask you for a LT contract thus meaning you'd have 150 million dollars in OT or he'd walk to a team that would pay him like one.

As a long term idea it's a failure.

good point. but I think for the money, I would wait until later in the draft and go to work on guards and RT....

I'm slightly confused, you say Monroe and Smith are a lot better than Long last year... Long along with a few other LT's were better prospects than Albert, but Albert is better than Monroe and Smith? Interesting.

Why? What is your reasoning here?

You don't set yourself up to lose a guy after 1 contract, it's a long term failure read my other post.
