Chiefs Chiefs Are "Begging" To Get Out Of 1st Pick - Page 25

houstonwhodat · 05:02 AM

According to this reporter at SB Nation, the Chiefs are "begging" to get out of the 1st pick in the draft.

April 15th:

"The Kansas City Chiefs earned the top spot in the NFL Draft with their 2-14 record last season, but it seems increasingly likely that they won't be the ones to actually make the first selection: Mike Freeman of CBS writes that the Chiefs are "begging" for the opportunity to move the pick."

"It's no surprise that the Kansas City Chiefs are open to trades for the No. 1 pick. They've already traded for a quarterback in Alex Smith, and the near-consensus best player available, Luke Joeckel, doesn't seem to be inspiring huge amounts of excitement in Kansas City, especially since Branden Albert has been a solid option for them at the position ever since they used their first-round pick on him in 2008. It is a little bit surprising how open they seem to be about it. Andy Reid said the team was open to it all the way back in February, and GM John Dorsey made similar statements a few weeks ago. But that's nothing compared to all the rumors of behind-the-scenes machinations trying to trade the pick. For what it's worth, Dan Kadar of Mocking the Draft said moving the pick was a "dream scenario" when he analyzed the Chiefs' choices in February."

"No team has traded a No. 1 pick since 2004 when the Chargers traded Eli Manning to the Giants, but that was a different scenario, as Manning had publicly stated he wouldn't play for the Chargers. Despite the ultimatum, they were still able to get a good haul for him - the fourth pick in that draft, Phillip Rivers, as well as first and third-round picks in 2005. The Rams were able to get an arm and a leg from the Redskins for the second pick in last year's draft, receiving last year's No. 6 pick and a second-rounder as well as first-round picks in this upcoming draft and in 2014. However, those trades were both for franchise-caliber quarterbacks, something this class has a dearth of."

Wow, Keg. You've been one butthurt mother****er this offseason.

From my point of view, this all has to do with the WV QB. You've gotten "uppity" about Michigan players in the past but nothing like what I've seen this offseason.

Good on you.

Geno didn't go to Stanford because he had a 2.8 GPA. Not exactly Stanford material.

He could have went to Baylor though, as he and Griffin had the exact same Wonderlic score.

Apparently not.

The air has been so thick with bullshit this offseason that it's difficult to determine who's joking and who is not.

My apologies.

I'm working tonight, I haven't even been in on this discussion, I just saw you'd said that as I was scrolling through all the bullshit, and just made one of my patented drive-by cracks.

As I said earlier, I'm sick of talking/thinking/caring about the draft at this point. I just want it to be over.

Alert me if you ever post anything that's even remotely humorous.

Thanks in advance.

RG3 was his high school's student president while finishing 7th in his entire class and going to Baylor a semester early when he was 17 years old.

RG3 then graduated with his undergrad from Baylor in only 3 years with a 3.67 GPA while appearing on the Dean's list twice and then went on to a masters degree all before entering the NFL Draft.

Your dumbass sig claiming that 2.8 art boy Geno is as smart or smarter than RG3 makes me laugh every time I read it.
