Chiefs If you are satisfied the Chiefs have a QB they can rely on..........

..... Would you draft a QB in the first round? If not who would you draft?

**Tribal Warfare** · 11-11-2008, 11:59 PM

Yes, I'd draft Stafford and let them compete for the job.

That would be a good situation, unless Detroit finds a way to lose he is not likely to be available. Who is your second choice?

If Detroit finds a way to lose? Aren't they perfect in that regard right now?

I still like Bradford, but if we are talking 3rd to 5th round prospects then it's John Parker Wilson

That never happens.

If Stafford is drafted, there will be enormous pressure from the fans, media, and front office (who has to justify paying $70 m to a backup) to start him. I have rarely seen a situation where a top 10 QB didn't eventually weasel his way into a starting lineup, regardless of if he actually earned the job.

That's why I don't like the idea of drafting stafford. A true QB competition would be bringing in a 2nd round pick who makes minimal money the opportunity to COMPETE to win a starting job. Not a competition in which a top 10 QB is guaranteed a starting job in the next 1 or 2 years regardless of how well Thigpen plays.

You might say that the Chiefs should be smart enough to avoid that conflict, but we saw how much Peterson babied LJ to ensure that he didn't screw up on the pick.

**007** · 11-12-2008, 12:01 AM

I think they should go with a QB but with Detroit getting the first pick that screws thing up.

Mr Luzcious · 11-12-2008, 12:10 AM

If Thigpen plays out the rest of the season this well, then I don't have a problem with holding off on drafting a qb. Especially if Detroit does wind up with the first pick.

TrickyNicky · 11-12-2008, 12:33 AM

So if Thigpen fleshes out, does that mean that KC actually developed a QB? Or does it not count since he was a PS'er.

I think we might be getting ahead of ourselves. He has not really won a game on his own yet.

You can thank the long snapper for that.
