These writers are playing the percentages. They know that the Chiefs hate to draft QBs. In 30 years the Chiefs haven't drafted one in the first round so that is what they are predicting will happen again. Reid will take a QB in round one because he knows there isn't one on the team now.

I would bet everything that the talking heads would be pushing Geno Smith at No. 1 like crazy. The early draft hype is all about how well and how much the agent pulls the "big-name" media guys' strings.

If you swing and whiff we'll see pretty soon and we can take a QB in another draft. It's not like the past where missing at #1 crippled your franchise. But I don't see why we don't invest in Branden Albert (no need at LT then), we have Poe/Powe at DT (the only other position I've really heard promoted by the "experts"), and there's no way you burn the #1 on an ILB who just got handily outplayed. You take a QB, knowing if everything falls apart you do it again next season and you're set at back-up. The only caveat is if you can out-maneuver other teams and take him later for more picks. This is why Reid's statements about maybe not taking a QB don't bother me at all at this point. If we can get someone else in the top 5 who isn't the Raiders to deal then you deal...but unfortunately I could see Jax take him at #2 so the "out-maneuver" option probably doesn't exist unless you're willing to settle for another QB and you're willing to let the draft order tell you who that QB will be. |

If we do select any position other than a QB then we need to be prepared to trade back into the 1st round and select the QB we want.
1st round (1st pk) - ??? 1st round(15th pk) - Tyler Wilson

And after that there are about 12 teams that don't need one...

I'm just saying that if the Chiefs do decide they prefer Wilson and their research shows that the QB's aren't going top 5 then they MUST have a plan/trade in place to jump back up. we have the 2nd pick of the 2nd round. So we would have to trade back up 15-20 slots I don't know what that would take in terms of trade.

That's not a red flag. That's a straight-up black ball. Do NOT draft this douche. |

I care about the attitude that led to the tat. I care that he's full pimped on him-having-some-him. Perhaps the 2nd or 3rd most talented guy in the draft - but a total washout...

a freaking tackle... the one thing you can always count on this time of year is BS speculation full of fail.

If there is a QB that is a top 10 talent, and you have the #1 pick, you take him #1.
Not sure what is so difficult to understand about that. |
