There is no scenario where not taking a QB at #1 would be justifiable.

If you stick with the 3-4.....you've got Hali and Houston....no Jarvis Jones. Poe is your NT....no Star. ILBs and CBs don't go #1 overall.

If you re-sign Albert.....no OT. If you don't re-sign Albert...you drafted Donald Stephenson last year.....****ing play him.

Absolutely! To pass on a QB in round 1, and have one of the 1st rounders pan out to be a franchise QB... :shake:

If we take a QB in the first, and he turns out to be a bust... :shrug:

Draft another one.

To me with Andy Reid right now, I think Barkley is going to be the target.

Exactly. I agree, but the whole value-thing seems to weigh very heavily in the discussion when it comes time to actually pick--because the BAA argument really is compelling given draft history.

However, if they are able to trade down 5-6 spots without jeopardizing choosing one of the three top prospects...I could see them doing that. On the other hand if they are not going to be availble, if there was ever a year Chief's fans will forgive the FO on a "reach" for a QB--this would be it. Either way...our first round pick will most likely be a QB.

Unless they are dead certain that "their" guy will be there when we pick in the second... :spock:

:(

Clark has never taken a QB in the 1st and he won't this year either.

Too risky...

Like I said, if there were ever a year he could get away with it....this would be it...:hmmm:

Adjust your sarcasm meter...

PBJ

And he still won't...

Clark is on a whirlwind tour to win back the fans.

I think they take a QB because it gives him something singular to galvanize the fanbase.

Don't think he didn't notice that there were more Joe Montana and Trent Green (and even ELVIS GRBAC) jerseys in the stadium vs. Matt Cassel jerseys.

Honest question...

In what ways is Barkley better than Smith?

:spock:

Eh, I think Rausch is just preparing himself for a letdown...that or trying the reverse psychology angle. Heh.

I'm not high on Barkley, but considering the offense Reid likes to run, Barkley isn't a bad idea.

I'd still rather have Smith.

I'd be good with Smith, Wilson, or Barkley. In that order.

Yep. With the way the contracts are setup now for 1st round draft choices it makes no sense to trade back or not pick a QB if you were the Chiefs.

Of course unless they get a king's ransom in return.
