so if we take a QB in the 1st round...we have a 10% shot of winning a Super Bowl over 10 or so years?!?! SIGN ME UP, PLEASE!

Nope, not really. My premise is that because they are listed as a "can't miss" the prognosticators aren't infallible. A first rounder is supposed to be a stud. That's why they're picked first. A late rounder is minimum loss with nothing but upside. That being said, my words are getting a little twisted here. I'm not advocating not picking a first round quarterback. I just think it's stupid to throw a season on a guy who's draft value is based on playing weak competition in college. |

So, you can see that there are no guarantees, but I'd trade the next two drafts for Luck.

Right now i'd almost trade my wife to have aaron Rodgers as a Chief.
Well she might trade me i guess, she is as big a fan as me. Prob. wouldn't trade the wife. But would be a tough dec. |

Honestly, the only comparison to how Rodgers is playing that I can think of would have to be Kurt Warner in their Superbowl victory run. Kurt Warner was demonic that season, you could say Brady in '07 but he failed to finish in the Superbowl (which was awesome).

our pieces are in place...we have an elite WR, a good slot guy, and a 1st round #2... we have a good TE (injury prone)... we have an emerging offensive line... and we have Jamaal Charles...plus a gadget back who could probably be pretty useful if we had a QB who could make reads we're set on offense Defensively we have a top 5 rusher in the NFL...we have a ton of highly drafted, highly skilled DL (whether or not they live up to their potential I don't know)... Belcher and DJ have played really good ILB this year... we have 2 real good CB's, a pretty good nickel...an elite safety... SO HOW ARE WE THROWING A SEASON!??! WE'RE 1 GOD DAMN FRANCHISE QB AWAY (WITH SOME FILLER PIECES) FROM BEING AN ABSOLUTE CONTENDER. Draft picks are terrific....they really are. They are also overrated on this board (as proven time and time again) and any time you can get a sure thing (Aaron Rodgers, Andrew Luck) you do what it takes to get that player... even if it costs two drafts (again, I know this is unrealistic, no one is going to trade two drafts, I'm just making a point) |

Difference between Leinart is that Luck does not play on an all world team. Leinart did. Luck didn't have even half the talent on his team that Leinart did. Luck still put up just as good if not better numbers then Leinart.
