Keep the ball out of the QB's hands as much as possible to raise our chance of winning.

This place is ****ing crazy sometimes.
A QB is critical. But for people to suggest that we can't be a serious threat with Richardson and especially Richardson/Charles combo are just plain crazy. To the point where we're actually justifying reaching for a QB nobody's actually excited about. FML. |

In fact, I believe a top 10 defense and top 10 running game is still a formula for long term success. The key, however, is that your game manager QB has to be able to step up and make plays. That '05 Steeler team is the model that I would love to follow. That being said, there's no way that the Chiefs, or any team, can win with Matt Cassel a championship at QB. The Houston Texans this year, with Schaub at QB, could be a taem that might be hard to get by, because they would be the most balanced team in the playoffs. Great D, outstanding running team, and a QB that can make plays (though we don't know how he stands up to playoff pressure). I also believe that it will, at some point soon, become obvious to everyone that Cassel is not the answer. The question then becomes, how will that problem be addressed. This is where my lack of faith kicks in.

I'm not advocating reaching for a QB.
I'm STRONGLY against anything that would make this FO believe Matt Cassel is anything more than a 1-year stopgap. Trent Richardson is the kind of player that could make them believe they can get by with Cassel for 5 or 6 more years. **** that. |

No RB would be getting many yards against a defense so singularly predicated on stopping the run. Richardson was actually very ****ing impressive in that game.

But if you draft Richardson and surround him with a very good QB, the team could be tremendous. And if you bring in a young QB, Richardson helps you ease the QB in. But we're assuming that Pioli has the common sense for this. I'm not convinced he does. |

They've had the most success under Pioli as a running team
build to their strengths & develop a QB while doing it hopefully one worth the time this go around |

Richardson is gonna be great in that he and Charles can help us bring Stanzi along slow next year so he is ready to gunsling when the playoffs start.

This is the only hope I carry for our future at QB. The 1:100 longshot in Rick Stanzi. |

If Richardson is there when we draft, pick him.
If he's not, try and trade down acquire an extra 2 round pick, trade down to the 20's. Take Konz with that first pick. Use the seconds on Reynolds and Hightower in the 2. Take Chris Polk in the 3. Go even more truefan the rest of the way. It's not a flashy draft, but it would be solid. |
