I agree that he seemed like a good kid, and it would be nice to see him catch on.

Unfortunately, after being released early in the year with Miami, he's still listed as a FA, so my little narrative might be closer to true than we might otherwise like.

FTR, dumbasses can be found everywhere, and some of you might find it surprising, but the All Knowing, All Powerful Gaz is one of them.


Neither of the top QB prospects seems like "franchise QB" material to me. Nor would I cough up the #3 pick for Cassel. No doubt I will draw considerable scorn for my position, but I would stick with Thigpen, dump Croyle & bring in a couple of FA QBs to spice up camp. But my plan [such as it is] would be to start Thigpen, barring a tremendous showing by one of the FA QBs or a stunningly dismal preformance by Thigpen.

Although our pass rush was truly dismal [bringing more that a few tears to my eyes], I do not consider any of the DEs worthy of the #3 pick. That's how it is for Chiefs fans, ennit? The Draft is loaded when we do not need a specific position & thin when we do. Or it IS loaded with talent & we take Todd Blackledge. Gah!

Sadly, the same is true for the Offensive Line. Our OL was better than the DL, but still way below what is required to succeed on the NFL. Still, this draft does not have an OLineman worthy of #3. We will have to augment both the OL & DL from later Rounds & FA.

That brings me to WR & LB. While it seems obvious [at least to me] that LB is considerably more needy than WR, the thought of Crabtree is intriguing.

Another valid possibility is Curry. We are in desperate need of LB help & I think that Curry is worth the #3 pick. Of course, the actual Defensive scheme for 2009 has not been set [since we do not yet have a DC], Curry can play in a 4-3 or 3-4 Defense.

As of now, I would favor Crabtree or Curry [with the dedicated Defense Homer in me leaning toward Curry]. That opinion [of course] will vacillate & waver as more information comes in.

Given the current state of our team, it is a bit sad to realize that we are still going to be a bad team for a couple of years. Too many holes, not enough fingers...

All of his posts (this one came from fatchatter) are all well thought out and reasonable, but the fact is, he is wrong on just about every point.

Come on, Crabtree or Curry at #3?

That is just stupid.

Crabtree isn't the same kind of talent as that Fitzgerald or calvin Johnson were coming out, and you don't draft a stongside cover backer that high.

I'll put it this way guys we can't use what or how the chiefs have drafted in the past. Tendencies are thrown out this is a new regime. We don't know how we are gonna draft.


Sanchez? I for one am not sold on him but if you think he is a franchise qb you take him

Crabtree? He better be the next great WR if you are gonna take him that high

Curry? I don't know much but one again that high better be a cross of DT and LT

Maualuga? I know I misspelled it again if he is the second coming of ray lewis to high if not.
Stafford? Is he Elway two or Jeff George two for me a little too inconssistent but was that the receivers fault

OT? Who knows a RT this high

Trade down? This is a patriots manuver but is it a pioli and Haley one who knows

We don't know what they are gonna do so right now there are no dumb picks

There is a dumb pick though. The dumb pick would be grabbing an OT at #3 and moving Albert into play LG. You just wasted two picks and $75 million dollars.

And look.....trading down is fine for people who want to dream but I get tired of hearing the let's trade down argument that involves some retarded team trading up for no reason and giving us a whole bunch of picks.

I agree most trade scenarios I've posted are doable. I didn't say all I said most eagles do seen like a possibility. If crabtree wows them at workouts eagles may be desperate enough to trade up for him. We would have to get both firsts, but then again rams probably take him at two so who knows. It's gonna be hard to find a partner to trade with but if that is the route we decide to take I have trust pioli can do it.

I blame DC, Mr. DaFace. Over the course of the last year or two, debate in DC has devolved to little more than name calling - and the more nasty the insult, the better. That style has migrated over here. Sad, really. Planeteers always dissed other posters' opinions - at least ever since I started reading the board. But the quality of insult and debate has deteriorated dramatically.

As for WPI, I completely agree. Personally, and even though I have a serious problem with them, I don't bring them up. What's the point? I would, however, mention that WPI is brought to this board in the form of spam quite often and the mods have done nothing to end this practice. We've already had that conversation, so I understand why. Still, I think that's also part of the problem.

I think it's because the Chiefs are finally in a position to land a franchise QB, and some are so excited about this possibility that their exuberance morphs into a sledge when others don't understand why they, too, should be equally thrilled.

It's tough love.

I say all this calms down after the draft.

I think it used to be done in better humor, Mr. FAX, because people often had a well thought-out opinion, and could lay out and argue their case. It's pretty easy to respect someone's opinion when it's obvious they took the time to do some research and think it through. Arguments were laid out point by point, like an attorney would do for a jury. The endgame was often posters deciding to "agree to disagree."

Now, more often than not, the people that get bashed the hardest are the folks that make it painfully obvious they gave no thought whatsoever to their opinion before they posted it, or started a new thread about it when that exact topic is being discussed in several other threads at the exact same time.

Ok so let me say this then

Certain chiefs fans don't want to give thigpen time to grow, but then you say you want to draft a franchise qb. But if you won't give the time to develop thigpen how do you expect to have the patience to develop sanchez or stafford?

If as OTW you need facts I can get them. I know there is a chance he could be the one a million guy that comes in and dominates. But let me tell you although rothesberger, flaco, and Ryan weren't dominant they had good teams. How do you know thigpen with a better d and o line couldn't do great as well.

Now I'm not saying pulling a croyle and giving him the starter position but add some competition and see what he could do. But at least give him a chance before calling him a bust.

The reason that people have reservations about Thigpen is because how horrendously he played in the Atlanta game in a Pro Set.

You can not win in this league if you are limited to the spread because your QB can't adapt to a pro style offense.

Now it isn't out of the realm of possibility that a spread QB can adjust, however the only guys to do so far are Brees and Roesthlisberger.

Sanchez and Stafford have been playing in the pro set, so they are already ahead of the curve.

Yes he looked awful in Atlanta but that was his first game ever he got better. Yes it was in the spread but in NY he made some throws I haven't seen since Montana was a QB. I feel the kid has something. The debate is can he become a drop back passer I don't know that answer. I have this feeling that we are gonna get a good QB coach that can teach him how. I like the debate going on. I just feel it's too soon to declare him a bust.

He's not a bust. Right now he's a solid back up that you can win some games with when your starter goes down.

If Thigpen is going to develop beyond what he is now, he needs two years working with a great QB coach to fix his bad mechanics and (hopefully) improve his accuracy. It is not guaranteed that he'll be able to make those adjustments even if given the time. The odds are kind of long. There are guys in the draft who already have good mechanics and accuracy. They are going to need some development in other areas, but you know the mechanics and accuracy are already there. There chances of success are much higher.

There is no reason you couldn't take the first rounder and continue to develop Thigpen's mechanics. You'd have two chances of developing a franchise QB then. In this scenario, Thigpen doesn't get another chance unless the first rounder busts. But if the first rounder busts, you could re-evaluate Thigpen in a few games to see if his mechanics had developed enough to invest more time in. If not you have to go back to the draft and try again.

There is no magic formula. Those of us in favor of drafting a QB know we absolutely have to have a franchise QB and just want to make our chances as good as possible. You don't get a chance to grab a guy like Stafford or Sanchez every year. We want to strike while the chance is there, especially since there doesn't appear to be a compelling alternative at a position of need this year.

It's always been that way to a point, but it seems like people are "taking sides" more often these days.


I agree with this to. I don't know where the "true fan" thought came from so I will just blame Mecca. :)

why go there then?

Until FMB had his issue over there, I hadn't.

I went over there to ask first hand why they feel the need to ban people for having a different opinion, and was banned myself. Just like Smitty, FMB and FAX were. NONE of us violated any rules or term of service. There just happens to be a couple of hothead mods over there that thought it would be easier to just ban us than give us an explanation.

Me too.

It's interesting that people here don't get the issue between CP and WPI.

People here complain that someone with a different opinion get bashed, name-called, etc.

Have a different opinion over at WPI and you get banned.

I am still banned too.

I wonder if Fax got his account restored?

Apparently so. I hadn't checked before, but I just did and I can access the forum section which I couldn't do before.

Not that I'll ever go there again, of course.

All the objectives of Operation Anti-Dumbass have yet to be achieved, however. If we can't declare full victory by Friday, we'll escalate.

As for the second part, absolutely not. The only thing special about me is that it only took me two (2) posts to receive a ban. I think that's a record.

I'd love to take credit for that phrase...

I don't think anyone personally hates anyone else but when you have to explain something or have the same argument every single damn day and sometimes with the exact same people your patience starts wearing thin.

That doesn't even mention the huge number of people that will post an extremely uneducated draft take. If you can't take the 10 minutes out of your day before you post to read the rest of this board and use the lovely thing called the internet to learn and make an intelligent draft post why should I be nice to you?

And that is why they work on TV and not for NFL teams..it's widely known that OLB is not considered a valued position. It would be like arguing a TE is worth a top 5 pick, you can have the best one in the league but it won't be all that significant those players are nice pieces they aren't the cores of your team.

It's like the people who think we can just trade down like it's nothing and when you point out how rare that is you're met with some dumb argument like "the draft chart is dumb" which is absurd since all the teams use it.

I understand getting frustrated arguing with the same people about the same shit all the time. I do it alot with some of the hermits in DC.

But everyone has an opinion and some are better than others just like last year when you kept arguing that Jake Long sucks but it turns out he did good and went to his first Pro Bowl. Those that you argued with would probably call you an idiot right now.

Well they'd be wrong when LT's taken numerous picks after him were just as good...

I argued he wasn't worth a top 5 pick..I still stand by that.

SOME of those experts could work for teams, they probably get paid more where they are at. and the draft chart isnt always followed to the letter

No they wouldn't be wrong that is why it is called an opinion.

Also no other rookie tackle made the Pro Bowl so I don't why you would say they were better or just as good this year.

I think it's pretty well acknowledged that Clady had just as good if not a better year and Albert was good this year too...

I don't think Long justified himself as being 12 picks better than the next OT drafted. To me all the OT's were similar that's why he wasn't worth that pick.

I only get nasty with people when they keep arguing the same thing for 2 months or they say something retarded like "the draft chart is dumb" that would be like a lawyer going "well I think this law is dumb"

Personally I think Eugene Monroe is a more complete prospect than Jake Long was.

Long was the first overal pick, and the Dolphins got a lot of attention because of the turnaround.

Pro Bowls voting isn't always about selecting the best players.

It's a popularity contest, and name recognition.

And average dumbass fan wouldn't know Branden Albert from Eddie Albert, or Ryan Clady from Jack Ryan.

IMO long was the 1st pick because he was going to be easier to sign, cheaper, and the cornerstone for the oline. parcells likes line play and builds from that. and by most accounts long was ahead of the others drafted. now MM (i think) had albert, but most people were against him being a lt right? so basically when it comes to the draft it's a crapshoot.

I would agree with that. Like I said I was just playing devil's advocate though I did before the draft and still do think Long is a very tackle. I wanted to take Ryan though and was very happy with Dorsey.

1. Stand at the end of the bench with my arms crossed and a scowl on my face.

2. Take half my plays off.

3. Blast my new coach for not using me the right way, like I did with Vermeil.

4. Get yelled at by said new coach in front of God and media.

5. Throw my new GM under the bus, for what? I dont know yet.

6. Spit drink in some honey's face.

7. Lose contract on morals clause issue.
