Schefter- "Barkley Late first-round pick" Smith scouts "aren't completely wowed"

[ChiefsandO'sfan]

ESPN's Adam Schefter stated on Mike & Mike Wednesday morning that USC QB Matt Barkley is viewed around the NFL as a "late first-round pick."
Schefter cited a relatively weak incoming quarterback class as reasons for Alex Smith and Michael Vick to "absolutely" have strong offseason markets. Smith is a trade candidate, while Vick is expected to be released after the Super Bowl. Per Schefter, Heisman finalist Collin Klein is viewed as a "late-round pick," and scouts "aren't completely wowed" by West Virginia QB Geno Smith. Barkley showed underwhelming arm strength as a college senior and was interception prone. We wouldn't be surprised if he fell to the second round

I have jones at the 456,908 person taken in the draft...

Williamson just blew a giant hole in the idea of the Chiefs taking a tackle.

He said the Chiefs have a problem at LT, a GOOD problem.

Albert is a rare athlete who is still developing. He said Stephenson is a prototypical LT who has everything you want except experience. He said athletic, lockdown tackles are rare in this league and the Chiefs potentially have TWO. Said he'd love to see Stephenson at LT and Albert at RT, seemed to almost gush at the thought.

He went on to say that there are going to be some good WRs available in the 2nd and 3rd, especially where the Chiefs will be picking.

It's all setting up for us to take the QB.

Wilson or Smith and I'll be a happy camper. No USC QBs please.

****ing dumb.

Some major dumb****s to be wanting that. Can't wait to trade down (cause surely everyone in the league follows Mel's Big Board!!!!!!!!!), get leapt, and get left holding our dicks forced to draft a slapdick like Glennon....Awesome.

Kind of the way I see it.

Geno - 1A
Wilson - 1B
Barkley - 2

Who the **** is going to trade down for our pick, morons?

The Rams are the only team that have multiple first round picks. Who the hell would they take at #1 overall that they can't get where they pick?

If not the Rams, are you really going to be happy with a bunch of 2nd and 3rd rounders in exchange for missing out on your pick of ANY QB in this draft?

God, everybody here claims they want a franchise QB, but I don't think that's true. I think people around here are still ****ing scared.

Shoot me in the ****ing dick.

Manti, of course. Duh!

[PhillyChiefFan]

Only players worth a trade down to top 5, IMO, would be Jarvis Jones and maybe Star Lotulelei. Is there anyone else that teams would trade into the top 5 to take?

*BTW, definitely not advocating a trade down, I want Smith. Just trying to eliminate possibilities for the Chiefs FO to **** this up.

Beat me to it.

[Branden Albert's Huge Balls]

The number of assholes I have conversed with who think we should take Te'o Smith and get a QB in the 2nd + FA slapdick is mind boggling.

The fan base needs to be kidnapped, blindfolded and stuffed in a tiny, dark room until a franchise QB is drafted and established, because YOU CAN BET there will be NO PATIENCE for any QB we pick from True Fans.

And it will all stem from the stupid idea formed in their pea brains that we should not have drafted a QB.

In fact...and I GUARANTEE this will happen...as soon as a rookie QB struggles in red there will be a pocket of True Fans wishing Cassel was back.

Yeah no team us going to trade up for a Jarvis Jones or Star Louitelli(sp?) because this draft is full of pass rushers and big powerful DTs. They'll be able to draft thsoe position/types of players anywhere in the first round.

Star is the only non-QB worth a top 5 pick, in my opinion.

I've been wholly unimpressed with Jarvis Jones. **** that guy with AIDS.
