To the fans that logic makes sense. We are talking about the Chiefs though. The last time they drafted a first round QB was 1983. He busted and it is now 2012 and we are still hoping to finally draft another one. We can't afford to fail unless we want to wait another 30 years to try again.

Wilson out of the choices.

We would be lucky to end up with either Smith or Barkley. A good team could win a Super Bowl with either one leading their offense.

Need a longer list. Not impressed yet.

I thought about adding more but these are the only three that are projected as first rounders and you have to think we are drafting a first round QB

OK, those 3 choices aside, who would be your ideal pick?

Probably Glennon, NC State. Since the Bucky Brooks article, I have really looked at the kid and he has the tools and he has "it." He has played well in the big games in the big moments.

I was also impressed with McCarron. Hell, I would take both of them if I were drafting.

Some of the luster has worn off Smith in the last few games. Before I make a choice, I'd like to see some bowl games.

Jesus Christ, Barkley can throw the ball 60 yards which is more than enough. His arm strength is equal to Brady/Brees/Both Mannings (none of which have elite arm strength). Who cares about the wind up on long throws, ever watch Peyton when he throws further than 20 yards? His entire body is working to get the ball where it needs to go. Smarts and accuracy are what makes a qb elite, otherwise Jamarcus Russell would be MVP every year and he's a piece of garbage.

The trajectory on his long ball IS a concern, whether you want to admit it or not.

NFL CBs recover MUCH faster than Pac 10 CBs.

3:20 would like to have a word with your sir...

Notice it's a 55 yard pass that hits his receiver perfectly in stride and that long ball is no floater.

All Pioli needs to see is the combine...

That's one pass. Come on man, can we quit with the hyperbole and just be honest about this crop of QBs?

This place has really been worked into a froth and the season isn't even half over.

I'll be glad when the draft is over and done with.

Never said he was a great QB or will be in the NFL. I get annoyed when people try to bash his arm strength, his arm strength is more than adequate for the NFL.

I'm not that stoked on any of the QBs this year either, but I feel pretty strongly that Barkley will at least be on the level of say a Flacco/Schaub/Alex Smith in the NFL with the potential to possibly be elite. After all the short and shitty careers of the Chiefs QBs since Montana (Green excepted, but was only 4 years) I would love to have our own franchise QB for 10+ years.

Not sure yet. Only seen Geno Smith and really wasn't that impressed. I think Barkley is the more ready/intelligent QB.
