The Kansas City Chiefs still don't have a reliable starting quarterback for the 2013 season, a glaring issue that will assuredly be addressed in the coming months. One possibility for Andy Reid and his new team could be to bring in the quarterback he drafted last year out of Arizona, and as Chris Mortensen sees it, the Chiefs would have to give up at least a third-round pick to do so.

For more on the Chiefs offseason, head over to Arrowhead Pride.

Mortensen said on ESPN's "NFL 32" a third-rounder would probably be the going rate to acquire Foles. He seems to believe Kansas City is inclined to head to the bargaining table for the 24-year-old passer.

Clearly the connection between Reid and Foles would be a starting point to these negotiations. He drafted Foles in Round 3 of the 2012 NFL Draft, ultimately supplanting Michael Vick with the rookie quarterback later in the season.

If the Chiefs find a way to bring in Foles, retain Dwayne Bowe and use their No. 1 pick in April for another valuable commodity like Luke Joeckel, we might actually see the beginning of a decent offensive display. Kansas City has plenty of work ahead this offseason.

Are we supposed to tie up 20 million a year on 2 receivers?

Foles probably increased his stoc, but its not like the Eagles wouldnt take a premium third for him...he doesnt fit their system.

youre not getting Maclin for anything less than a 2nd. So if someone wants Maclin, pony up the pick and cash. If not, I dont know what to tell you lol

2 good WRs? Yeah, don't really care.

I'd trade first picks, give them a 3rd. What I proposed earlier was probably too much.

so what?

he's a 3rd round backup who has done jack shit

i'm pretty sure Reid isn't going to say to Philly, "we think your 3rd round pick is a franchise QB and we want to pay extra for him, please take all our picks"

YOU JUST MADE MY POINT FOR ME.

He is NOT worth the 875 ponts he was originally worth, he is now worth around 500.

Yeah, I probably overestimated how much it would take.

But obviously, they are wanting a 2 for Foles at this point, so if Reid thinks he's the guy, they'll probably do it.

You trade picks, plus get Foles and Maclin. If I'm trading out of #1 overall, you better damn well get back a north load.

We should, but we won't if we trade it. The talent at the top doesn't justify it at this point.

If anyone wants to trade up, they disagree. Otherwise, they'd be cool with staying at #4 overall.

It sucks and i'm in no way advocating this, but you pretty much have to throw out what the last regime did at this point. That doesn't matter.

Seems there's just to much "non QB at 1" smoke for it to just be GM/coach speak.

I think our regime might do it, just to get out of the first pick so they don't have to explain not taking a QB.

Denver never met or worked out Cutler prior to drafting him.

So there's absolutely no telling what may or may not transpire during the draft.

Well, we've met with all the QBs and will watch them all work out. It may all be bs that they're shoveling right now and they plan on taking Geno/Barkley etc at 1.

But at this point, based on what we've heard from multiple sources, I don't think the do.
