Well, there's the whole grooming the qb bit. QB would have a much better grasp of the offense having sat and watched for a year

You don't draft a QB with the #1 pick of the entire draft so he can ride the bench. In fact, that is very much NOT taking the BPA if he has to hold a clipboard. BPA is a guy who you can plug in and get immediate results with at a high level.

I really do hope kc drafts Geno with the #1 pick. You think Blackledge was a fiasco, that's nothing compared to taking a QB with the 1.1 pick of an entire draft, having him sit behind a mediocre Alex Smith for 2 years (because he can't beat Smith out like Kaepernick did) and then when he finally does start, he ends up being no better or worse then the journeyman QB he just replaced.

I believe you can in this draft. With Alex starting, let Geno learn the WCO and get ready. You know Alex will be hurt at some point. So he'd have a shot at some point if Chase can't do anything.
