I lobbied for Brees in 2001. I lobbied for Sanchez in 2009. I lobbied for Clausen in 2010. I said the Chiefs should have given up every draft choice in 2012 and their first in 2013 for RGIII.

You're ****ing stupid.

Fine then you shouldn't be bitching when we have a real opportunity to get our own QB not some reject from another team.

And if the guy we draft becomes an Alex Smith\Matt Cassel reject who gives a shit we just go draft another one and another one until we finally get it right.

Riiiiight. If that was so easy, why get rid of Cassel?

There's no shortage of reasons to get rid of him.

The trouble is you can apply most of that logic to Smith, too.

That's just ****ing brilliant logic. "The Chiefs should take a QB #1 because they've got the first pick".

JFC.

I don't care if we were picking first, 5th or 10th. Go identify the best QB in the draft and do what you can to get that guy. It is not complicated.

And what if the "best guy" is still complete shit?

That's apparently what Reid and Dorsey concluded.

Hello Chiefs' fans....I'm from the 49ers forum and NOT A TROLL. I am simply here to give you some heads up about Alex Smith. I have been a 49ers fan since 1980 and so I have no time for childish stuffs.

I really admired Alex Smith and am a bit known in our boards as an Alex homer. I am a staunch West Coast Offense supporter, big Bill Walsh supporter and of course now Jim Harbaugh supporter.

I also like Coach Andy Reid for being a Holmgren disciple and a WCO proponent and in this light you have reasons to be optimistic with Alex Smith. Alex Smith was subjected under unfair conditions with Coach Noland and Singletary both whom are responsible for the 49ers' demise for the last 8 years while in SF. Both have no clue how to coach, let alone both have no clue in any inclination in offense whatsoever.

Both also didn't support Alex Smith with an OC (remember he went through 7 years with different OCs everytime!) who can't really create any kind of momentum...bad offensive line and all.

And so with Andy Reid at the helm he would know how to use Alex Smith. He's gotten polished a bit under Jim Harbaugh in terminology and short/medium passing. So don't be panicking. He is stable and doesn't turn the ball over within the WCO.

He will be patient, and will get sack at most if there's no open "receivers". And thus the main key is the O-line, the running game and the playcalling to get him going. I will not BS you guys. He is a heady competitor and very efficient in the WCO.

Just don't expect anything spectacular. What he can give you is consistency and remember what he did against The Saints in the NFCCG last year? Well he was consistent and he loves the TE position (so sexual puns...bwahaha).

And so that's my 2 cents and wishing you guys luck.

Any thoughts?

The funny thing is, if this was the Eagles, I'd actually feel pretty confident Smith would have some success. We have yet to see if Reid can carry that magic over though. This franchise is cursed that way. Reid got solid performances out of McNabb. Dragged an over the hill 95 year old Jeff Garcia into the playoffs, and almost to the conference championship game... and took a guy who'd been in prison and hadn't started for 4 years to his best passing season, by far... and into the playoffs.

The fact of the matter is, if Alex Smith fails, there will likely be a riot. But if he does end up doing well every single fan will become a die hard supporter.

There are just as many stories of moderate QB's being successful with another team, as there are Failed hand-me downs that have done nothing but disappoint.

What we need to do is exactly as every one on the team is going to do, and that's support our QB. Talk shit after he fails(if he fails). Because do we want him to fail? Ask yourselves that. Do you want Alex Smith to fail, and be a complete bust? Any honest, realistic Chiefs fan would obviously say no. Alex Smith is your QB, whether you want him to be or not. So why not be supportive and encourage our team to do well. Leave the shit talking til after he screws everything up.

They maybe shit or they may not. Draft picks are crapshoots. I am sure the 49ers thought they had their guy in Smith until they benched him 4 times and then traded him.

The point is it appears the Chiefs for whatever reason are scared to draft a QB high. And until we do we will never win a damn thing.

Obviously Reid and Dorsey didnt like the top qbs in this class. Maybe they like Wilson or bray better, we shall see. It sucks, but they got a guy who can probably be a 2 year guy til they find their guy.

It's not the way we wanted the whole thing to play out but it is what it is. Who knows, we are obviously trading down, get some more picks maybe they end up with their bpa and a qb in te first couple rounds, who knows. Just have to let it play out

Can you please tell me some stories of guys on their 7th OC who went on to win a superbowl with a new team?

That will make my day
