Drafting a rookie quarterback.
With all the talk about quarterbacks around here, it made me think.

Say the Chiefs drafted a quarterback in the first round. Made him the starter from day 1, no questions asked.

How many years would you guys give him before you give up on the guy? How patient would Chiefs fans be?

In my opinion, it's 3 years.



EDIT: I'll add a little wrinkle. Say by some fate of the world, we drafted RGIII. Or say we are in the Browns spot and were to draft RGIII, how many years you give him?

I have to ask how old I will be when this happens? Will I be under 100?

I think the patience of each individual would depend on how that individual viewed the prospect coming out of school.

People who were on the Jimmy Clausen bandwagon are the ones pining for the Chiefs to sign him should the Panthers release him.

Those of us who weren't sold on him coming out, or that felt he was shit, would be less inclined to give him more than a handful of games to show something to warrant support, and saw nothing from him his rookie season to suggest he's anything more than garbage.

I would give Tannehill 3 years to get it because I think his upside is high.

I wouldn't be so inclined for a guy like Landry Jones who looks to me like a guy that has all the potential to suck balls that Kyle Boller already sucked on.

If he looks like he has the potential, shows leadership and pocket presence, I could be just as patient as I have with this ****ing team. Forever it would seem.

But if he takes the field, wets his pants and panics, I am done.

Sorry, some have it and some don't. I didn't see one hint of panic out of Stanzi, he showed excellent pocket presence.

That is all I ask, have the tools to start with. You can't teach talent, Cassel is the best example of that. He has plenty of heart, but zero talent.

Truely depends on how the person looks. If he is ducking and heading for the fetal position or just abandoning the pocket because he thinks there is pressure but there really isn't, throwing stupid ints in his 2cd year he will be Not For Long.

LOL. I just mentioned this in another thread. But my guess is that 1/2 of this place would be irate if he didn't look good his first game, and 3/4 would be irate after the rookie year. 7/8 would be irate if he wasn't producing after two years.

But all the douches would completely jump ship if he looked good his third year, and claim they knew he had it all along.

Oh and Pioli would have screwed it up big if he didn't produce right away. Well people will still hate on Pioli no matter what he does. If the Chiefs ever do win a Super Bowl under Pioli, it wont be because of him in a lot of opinions here.

Depends on how much money we have invested in him. Typically a top 10 picks gets 4 years or so. Late 1st rounders and 2nd rounders are easier to give up on if they don't perform right away.

Typically that's what the SHOULD get you mean. That isn't what most of QB gives, by any stretch.

Maybe after three years of bitching and moaning they warm up to it if he becomes good. But they only stuck with him because they were forced to.

I think any QB the Chiefs drafted would get all the support in the world from this fanbase. Croyle was pretty pedestrian in the 9 games he started. And despite never having won a game as a Chief...people were still talking about him being the QBOTF two years after the fact.

I have made the point several times that the only reason anybody still likes or mentions Croyle is he was drafted by KC.

He never even had what could be called a really good game.

He threw one good pass in a preseason game, so he had that going for him.

That's my point.
Fans are so tired of retreads they'll be very patient with any QB we draft.
