Poe was in way too many snaps for a man his size, had no help around him and was asked to roam around on the line. The physical talent is there, it needs to be honed. Honed a lot.

He was in for too many snaps no doubt. The problem is that he wasn't dominant in the first quarter when he wasn't gassed.

Too many snaps wasn't the only issue why he didn't succeed. Don't be a Patteau and only pay attention to one part of the argument.

Don't rationalize his collegiate play just because KC drafted him. He wasn't that good of a college player, especially for someone with his natural ability. Pioli drafted a workout warrior.

You knew the rationalization was coming.

Very few wanted this kid before the draft, now people think he's a great pick.

People are already setting it up for when he sucks his first year (or two or three) they can break out the "of course he was going to suck his first year" argument.

He'll get a ridiculously long leash for no other reason than who drafted him.

On the other hand, one can defer to the expert.

I don't think interstellar travel is worth our time to research, but if Stephen Hawking says it is, I'll defer to him because he's a proven genius.

I'll admit I didn't like the Poe selection, but if Romeo Crennel says he has the ability to be molded into someone excellent, I'll defer to him because he's a legit defensive line genius.

Same thing with Herm Edwards and defensive backs -- the guy had a really great eye for them, despite his deficiencies everywhere else (and I do mean everywhere else). Think Todd Haley and receivers, and so on...

I don't like the pick, and will be surprised if he ever lives up to his (immense) potential.

The real problem is that the "first year or two" excuse will be legitimate.

I'm with nj, though, and have said before, that I believe Powe will be the starter to start the season, and actually have high hope for him.

It will be difficult for Poe, even if he does show some of that promise, to root Powe out of the starting lineup, if he plays as well as I believe he can.

I totally agree...there was a groupe of us that thought Powe was a borderline 2nd/3rd round quality player in that draft that has a pretty nice sized upside.

It's gonna be nice to be able to call in the Powe Poe on opowesing offenses in coming years.

I wonder if Kelly Gregg signs anywhere...Romeo had mentioned that he wanted to play next year and if that's true, I don't see where he fits in KC.
