If that's what you're doing with the pick, then the guy you're replacing him with had better be elite.

I'm not okay with using 1.1 to get a guy that's "in the top 5" in his 2nd year. At that point you're using 1.1 on a nominal upgrade and some cost savings. That's not good enough. If you're using 1.1 on a LT when you already have a damn LT, then he needs to be a guy that's a 5-year All-Pro. If he's not Joe Thomas, the pick is a failure. And I don't think that's placing an unreasonably high bar on a guy that's being brought in to replace a young player that's already very good.

I believe that if he plays all 16 games he'll throw 25 TDs but I'm not up for a sig bet. If you lived nearby I'd do a bar tab bet or something like that. Or something like a bottle of Don Julio 1942 for me and a like priced bottle of your choice for you.

@Jason_Madson: John Clayton says on @610SportsKC that Chiefs are going to trade Albert to Miami on draft day. Don't want to tip their hand so early.
Sorry if RP.

No, but that's a red herring argument.

Matthew Stafford Jason Smith Tyson Jackson Aaron Curry Mark Sanchez Andre Smith Darius Heyward-Bey Eugene Monroe B.J. Raji Michael Crabtree Aaron Maybin Knowshon Moreno Jackson went pretty much where he should have, among that group (one can argue his exact spot in the top 5, but he's there). The problem is that it was the lower picks that had the better players. This draft appears to be similarly tough to read and similarly likely to see the better players go outside the top of the draft, according to most reports. |

I don't think he will.
That's part of the bet. His egg is shaken.

Then you take a HR swing on the position with the greatest upside - i.e. Quarterback. This is risk without reward. Unless Fisher or Joeckel become All-Pros, in which case the gamble was correct and Reid and Dorsey played the draft well.

The idea would be signing him long term and dropping that 2013 cap number...

I've already had a some friends that I introduced CP to that are complaining about the unreadability of the site because of all the hate crap. I told them it is just because it is the offseason but these last few days have been pretty damned bad here.
