The Chiefs should make a concerted effort to make Tyler Bray attractive trade bait this pre-season. It would be great to get something by unloading our own version of Elvis Grbac on someone.

Yep. Only time Bray got extended time was game 4 against GB and he threw 3 TDs.

Its not cut and dried enough to take a swipe like that, Bray costs much less and has far more upside... is he as quick on the uptake as Daniel, probably not, but there was never any rush with the guy in the first place. If Murray jumps all over the 2 spot in camp, great... but theres just no reason to give up on that kind of arm talent after one year, Daniel isn't worth his paycheck. |

Using the #2 spot for Bray just because he has a big arm is a waste of a spot.

I think people forget Daniel shit the bed nearly all of preseason. So which Daniel do we get? The bed-shitter against 2nd/3rd stringers, or the one who managed a game against first stringers. Bray looked fantastic in the GB game, and received heaps of praise during TC.

Which game? And it's funny you talk about Daniel playing 2nd/3rd stringers when Bray played against 4th stringers and guys that were about to be cut in the GB game.

Bray is the definition of a project, everyone knows that... but if Murray comes into camp and wows with his ability to grasp the system/shows good instincts, as most seem to think he will, then I and others would rather keep the guy with the higher ceiling while cheering on Murray at #2. Theres good logic for both arguments, that's why I took exception to the "no logic" thing. You like a more, overall, experienced Daniel and that's fine, but its no excuse to tell Bray fans they're a bunch of logic lacking fools, either. |

Bray came into the GB preseason game midway through the second, I really doubt it was the very bottom of the barrel 4th stringers throughout.

Let's see...what would I rather have as a potential Chiefs QB: 6'6", 235 lbs. with great overhead release and an absolute cannon for an arm... From NFL.com: Quote:
6'6" dude with a cannon and a great release. You can't coach up arm strength. You can coach up decision making and timing. Chiefs Planet's reeruned summary: He was an UDFA. He must suck. I can't wait until we spend a draft pick on a QB. or 6', 207 lbs. with a poor release on a marginal arm... From NFL.com: Quote:
Midget game manager with average arm and athleticism with durability concerns, but his teammates think he's a swell guy. NFL Comparison: Poor Man's Chase Daniel Chief Planet's reeruned summary: HOLY SHIT!!! We drafted a QB!!1!11! He's going to be the starter by mid-way through the season and we'll have our very own homegrown QBOTF!!! SUPER BOWL!!!!1!11!!wtfomgpwnzr!!!lololololo!!1! NFL Comparison: Joe Montana at his very best. You guys are so ****ing hardup for any QB the Chiefs draft to be "the man" that you are willing to discount and dismiss what we already have on our roster just because we took one guy in the draft and the others we did not. |

Reincarnation of Elvis Grbac. If you're willing to suffer through several years of boneheaded play, he might develop into a serviceable starter but he's unlikely to ever be a devoted student of the game and he just might decide to bail on you rather than re-sign just about the time your investment is starting to pay off. I don't care about drafting a QB. I'm fine with getting a QB through any means whether it's 1st round pick, late round developmental flyer, UDFA, trade, high priced free agent, etc. Tyler Bray just hasn't shown any sign, going back to his college career, that he's the field general and leader that I want behind my center. If the Chiefs coaching staff can turn him around, that's great, but I'm not optimistic. So watch where you're pointing that "you guys".

It's not about how far you can throw it, it's about getting the ball to the right spot as quickly as possible. Defenders can adjust on a whiffle ball. |
