No way, homeslice. Matt Cassel is never a good pick...never under any circumstances....unless of course you are able to trade him for a #34 overall pick in the draft a few years after you draft him...or something stupid like that. Oh wait.....nevermind.

Wrong. Hes the most productive QB taken in the late rounds not named Brady. That should bring some prospective to the conversation.

Dude...I don't think you caught my sarcasm/joke. We traded a #34 for him and Vrabel...hence the, "oh wait...nevermind." |

Murray was a second/third round prospect that slid to the 5th because of the knee injury. More than likely he will be a top backup instead of starter, but still its a good value pick and the step in the right direction for a franchise that doesn't value drafting quarterbacks.

Not to mention, Murray's style of play is so system-specific. I think the system has to be a specific one in order for things to work out for him and the team he gets drafted by and potentially plays for... the Saints would have been a good fit...the Chiefs are an awesome fit for him, IMO. I think the Chiefs staff knew he was likely to drop a bit because of that, so they took their chances and ultimately got their guy in the freaking 5th. Murray comes off as a bright kid to me and I believe he is capable of catching on to a WCO very quickly...I just hope he is able to execute it effectively if given the chance. |

I like Murray but I firmly believe they are all in with Alex for the next 5 years.
This was a very smart pick though. Alex has been injured a lot before coming here, so having a capable guy come in is huge. I think Reid's premise here is to buy low/sell high. I can see him trying to get a 2nd or 3rd from a desperate team in the future.

I think Aaron Murray has a better chance of becoming our Kevin Kolb. Which is just fine, by me. How about THE CHIEFS being the team to trade a QB for a second (for once).

The big difference of course, being that Kolb was selected in the 2nd round himself...

The big difference of course, being that Matt Cassel was selected in the 7th round.
