If Cassel starts the year, you just know the football season is going no where regardless of how the regular season goes.

Huh?

Gonna go slowly for you here.

Chiefs have the ELEVENTH pick (11).

The Chiefs would be competing with the Browns and Redskins in a battle to trade up. Draft picks alone are not going to beat out these teams, especially considering if the Chiefs do acquire what they need, they will likely not be picking very highly next season while the Browns and Redskins have a pretty good shot at having high picks again next year.

Youre now looking at what the Rams' needs are. T, WR, CB.

Its likely that Carr is history, so the ammunition the Chiefs have are their draft, their future draft, LT Branden Albert, and WR Dwayne Bowe. Thats of course contingent on the Rams even being able to afford to do a deal that would involve players due to their cap situation.

Anyone thinking that it would take less than that to jump 9 spots over teams with far better picks has their head FIRMLY planted in their anus.

This.

:doh!: Otter do you even know how to read?

I'm guessing he meant "why do you not like Manning".

Other than my personal dislike please read the following article.From purely a football stance THIS is why I don't think Peyton is all that and as Chiefs fans it's what we need most.

His regular season success, though, does not mean that the future Hall of Famer should be absolved from criticism for his team’s repeated failures in January.

He has racked up seven one-and-done postseason exits—the most of any quarterback in NFL history. Overall, he owns a 9-10 record in 11 playoff appearances, whereas Eli is an incredible 9-3 with two Super Bowl MVP awards.

Oh, well then...that really is a good reason to completely turn on the team.

We're not trading Albert. The fact that you think we might shows how ****ing stupid you really are.

Once again we're looking at stats but when a an NFL QB leads the league with 7 one and done play-off exits I see a big red flag and it does't boast KC as Super Bowl champs.

Manning is not Montana,not even close.

And Manning's supporting cast in not Montana's supporting cast, not even close.

In regards to the 49er's or Chiefs?

Either, really.

I'm not a big fan of signing old QBs or anything, but if your argument is "he only won one super bowl", well......that's dumb.

Peyton Manning struggled in the post-season early in his career.
Since then, he's taken his team to the Superbowl TWICE.
I think I can get my head around him playing here (if he's healthy).

We can still draft his successor.
Two-three year solution and a young QB, of our own, waiting in the wings.
I'll take it.
