The QB Reid chooses to lead the Chiefs

[Mr. Flopnuts]

Let's try this again. I will only be happy if Reid chooses...

Poll forthcoming.

Hank Stram was pretty qualified when he went to the Saints too. Again, Andy improves our team.

I don't think he can top his early run in Philly.

Hank Stram had won a Super Bowl when he went to the Saints.

You said you want Joe Montana in his prime.

You created that narrow definition, not me.

As the other guy said, what if he is the starter? Are you going to abdicate your fandom?

Matt Cassel isn't going to be the starter here.

[O.city]

FFS, Cassel will not play in KC another down.


New HC"s and GM's mean new QB's.

Don't know if it's been mentiond, but would you swap first round picks with Seattle for Matt Flynn? Then you could use your low round first and second to move around for the rookie QB you want.

If a team like the Chiefs that NEED a QB are looking to trade down, there's no reason to trade up.

I don't know man, the rookie cap makes it a helluva a lot easier and just because we need a QB doesn't mean Andy is in love with this crop of QB's including Geno. We just don't know what Andy will do IF given the right opportunity to trade down and acquire a shit load of picks since THIS year's draft is very good at WR and Andy loves the passing game as we all know. Yes I know we need a QB to be able to pass but just don't be surprised.

Again, if the Chiefs don't want the #1 pick, nobody else does either.

You know what?

**** that.

To possibly look into the Reid crystal ball as to who Reid likes in this year's QB class, I think the the key here is look at Kolb and Foles. Two QB's who are totally different in their style of play BUT what was it about both of them that Reid liked enough to draft them ? This might be a big clue into who he likes in this year's crop.

And all this talk about being a down year for QBs or any other positions for that matter happens every year at every position only to find out later that several players in those supposed down classes become Pro Bowlers etc.....

And Hank didn't become a bad coach overnight.
The classic example of good owner ,Lamar vs at the time newbie ownership

I think a big part of the Kolb and Foles picks is where they were drafting. When he had a top 5 pick, he took a QB, even when the entire world thought they should take Ricky Williams.
