In the last 6 drafts, we have drafted in the top 5 in 4 of them. Right now, I'd trade ALL FOUR OF THOSE PLAYERS for anyof the top ten quarterbacks. Sadly, one of those guys has already moved on to another team and another of those guys is seemingly on his last legs in KC...on a 1 year deal. Let me give you a little treasure hunt... Go and look at the last 10 quarterbacks to win a superbowl and come back and tell me how many of them we passed on in the draft. I'll be right here, waiting for you intricate excuses for why it was totally fine to pass on al of them. |

It's so funny that the posters who make fun of the people supposably "rationalizing" Alex Smith are the posters rationalizing Geno Smith.
This was a weak QB draft. Every team passed on the messiah and there is damning evidence against this guy. He's not near the person or prospect the other QB's were and there seems to be more evidence proving this every day. Alex Smith was the best QB we could have acquired this offseason and that's a fact.

Isnt it just a little bit ironic that in nfl circles, that just happens to be the exact opposite of reality? Nah? Didnt think so.

I don't think I've ever read something you posted and was like "damn, that's a well put together thought" Ever Quote:
Shit, Clark Hunts comment at the time was "tell Geno we missed him at the senior bowl" It's hard to tell why he fired his agent. It's definitely possible that some of us at CP have been overvaluing him as a prospect due to factors that aren't available to us all such as interviews and workouts....but even with that risk, his upside is more than that of a really good right tackle...but I digress. it has little to do with Geno Smith.

That's a useless response. Every GM ever > BossChief, after all.
You griped about 6 drafts. The only draft in that group where a QB taken after the Chiefs picked went on to win a SB (to date) is that Flacco draft. So, unless you were pounding the table for Flacco, you don't really have any point. |

In a 10 year period, we managed to pass on 4 quarterbacks (that I can think of quickly, there are probably more) that went on to lead their teams to the superbowl. Colin Kaepernick Joe Flacco Aaron Rogers Drew Brees The ****ing point is that the term "reach" is irrelevant to quarterbacks because of the upside their position comes with if the pick works out. Let's say you want to buy a lottery ticket, so you go to the gas station. Once there, you see that there are only 2 choices of tickets to decide between. Ticket 1 is $10 and carries 2:1 odds of winning 15 dollars Ticket 2 is also $10 and carries 4:1 odds of winning 100 dollars. Which ticket do you buy? |
