From NFL.COM / Chiefs select Manuel

[Mother****erJones]

I might be the only one thats liked Manuel. Now id be ok with he at. 34 and packaging 1 to the rams for 16 and 22. I want Geno though. But if Manuel's our guy that's a trade I'd try and do

You aren't the only one. I actually wouldn't be furious with the guy in certain conditions. Thing is the situation the Chiefs are in is not one of those conditions. In a situation where we had won the Manning sweepstakes I would like Manuel, or if we didn't have a pick till the 2nd round. We have the 1st overall pick though. I'm not looking to get cute and pick up picks and still get a QB I like. I'm looking to get the best QB I see out there.

I like his size and ability to run if need be. Not be a run first QB. He shows good accuracy and touch just needs more consistency and coaching/development which Reid will do. I loved what I seen from him in the bowl game and senior bowl. I have Geno 1, Manuel 2, Wilson 3, Barkely 4, Glennon. 5 and Nassib 6

I'm not a fan of signing a vet to start but **** it let Alex smith or Vick go for a year. But I'd like Vick because hell get hurt and force Manuel to play and that's the only way you know if you got a good QB is playing time

If you would want Vick to get hurt why bring him in to begin with? I don't want either of them. We are in a position to get a guy that we should start right away. I have Geno then Wilson. Barkley would probably be third. After that I don't know. Glennon is a pretty big boom or bust IMO and while I think Manuel has potential he is a work in progress, just like Bray would be. We don't need, nor should we try, to go down that road when we have our choice at any QB.

1 for 16 + 22????????

Your post is the sound of flushing almost half the value of the first pick down the drain. A better choice would be to trade the #1 overall for the #3 overall straight up.

You've clearly never seen EJ Manuel play more than once or you're incredibly stupid. Or both.


JFC he's terrible. The only positive I can say about him is that he's 6'5" 240 and can run adequately (not great).

The only good thing about picking Manuel would be the endless fawlty towers jokes.

Nice. John Cleese, one of a kind.
