Poilian says no QB worthy of #1. Chiefs can find one later

This I agree with.

If they're banking on Barkley or Wilson being there at 34, that's a flawed strategy.

If they're targeting Nassib, Dysert, or Manuel, then it absolutely makes sense.

I really would imagine they will be interviewing the top 10 QB's so this isn't really news.

I'll say it again - I hope I'm not at home for the chiefs #1 pick, that way whatever I break won't be mine.

[The Franchise]

I'm really hoping Russell Wilson bombs hard from here on out. It's getting tiresome hearing everyone saying that they thought he was going to be something special.

[RunKC]

Also, I just don't see us taking a Guard at all in this draft.

Jeff Allen was sought after by Reid last year. He had the guy in on a pre-draft visit for crying out loud.

Ok.

We need a filter for the word "value".

The biggest crock of shit ever.

I find all the anger at the draft guys and ex-GMs to be funny. Is it their fault this years QB class sucks in terms of top end talent? The networks LOVE QBs. If there was a prospect to get excited over and over-hype they would. Based on game film alone it looks like there is one prospect who is getting a mid-first round grade. That's it. The choice for Reid is (a) bring in a vet, (b) reach for Smith, or (c) wait for the later rounds and try to beat the odds that that player can become a franchise QB.

Reaching for Smith is fine since you aren't going to get the same impact from any other position if you hit your pick. But, people need to stop whining that the entire world doesn't view him as a top 3 graded player.

The QB class doesn't suck.

There's a reason they are EX GMs.

Get over it.

sooo... are all these gms and coaches going to toot their own horn about knowing that russel wilson was going to be awesome?

If they were so high on him they would have ****ing picked him before the 3rd.

These ass hats just like to talk themselves up.

pricks.

The team is going to do whatever they are going to do regardless of what anyone says. Theres no reason to stress over it. This is just school yard gossip. Whocares what outsiders say. Let them.

This fanbase is AMAZING.

Hell, they are damn near the same guy.

They are with a percentage point of each other in career completion and QBR.

Cassel DESTROYS Kolb on TD:INT ratio, however.

1.44:1 for Cassel.

1.12:1 for Kolb.

My you're awfully trolly today. Not once did I ever say the Chiefs should bring in Kevin Kolb. I didn't even suggest it, and the thought has never crossed my head.

I simply told you that Andy Reid's quarterbacks have played well within his system. And now you're trying to deflect by putting words in my mouth.

If you don't want to call Reid a QB guru, fine.

Your standards are ridiculously low if you think Kolb played well in Philly.

61% completion
6.5 yards per attempt
11 TD's
14 INT's
73 QBR
