If not #1, where?

Yet that possibility, when mentioned, is met with disgust, anger and outright hostility, which I also find ridiculous considering none of these guys have been fully evaluated yet.

You telling me that going into camp with Matt Flynn, Zac Dysert and Ricky Stanzi wouldn't be a huge disapointment?

Some other team tried that.....the Cardinals.

There is a reason why it's met with disgust and anger. The idea of Matt Flynn as our starting QB is kind of a disgusting thought.

I think that Andy Reid and John Dorsey are going to have five years to prove that they know what they're doing.

If Andy Reid chooses to trade for a veteran QB, I personally would prefer to wait to see the results before claiming it as a failure.

I agree that they have good sized window to prove that they can build a team. I just dont think that they would think that trading for Flynn/Smith is a good idea. They are smart men. The NFL knows what Smith and Flynn are. Why settle for mediocrity at best?

Time will tell, but im confident that they wont trade for Flynn or any other back up QB.

I could be wrong i guess....

And once again, just to clarify, I'm not stating that this should be the direction, nor is it my preference.

But options, other than taking a QB #1 overall, do exist for the Chiefs.
