ROFL

Who said any of this?
That person is a moron.

I'm looking for it.

I though it was common knowledge.

It will be hard to find.

It was in one of the articles about the Smith trade.

I know you love to ignore that fact so that you can keep beating this drum.

Of course, gotta get butts in the seats.

Now that the homers are on the hook, time to go back to the original plan.

So you are saying the Chiefs spent 1.1 on a tackle, wasted a year, and didn't improve the team?

Why the **** arent we all on our knees praising this FO for being ****ing geniuses????

How was 2013 a waste??

How much experience did Mr 1.1 get at the position he was drafted to play?

If it was a special case, a deviation from the plan, then it was, by definition, not part of the plan.

Me saying he's the starter going into TC just means its his job to lose. They have invested a lot into him. This is how it should be.

This.

OF COURSE, we recognize it was a short-term solution from the very beginning.

That's the ENTIRE ARGUMENT the past 2 weeks.

Everything about last year was "short term".

Now all of the sudden this year, they're "building for the future" and we're supposed to be happy about it and trust them.

The circular logic here is hilarious.

I think you guys may be trying to make too much out of moves that were made last year, largely to fit an agenda.
Fisher was drafted for the future. But they had Albert and had to deal with that situation for a short period of time, short term, because they were not able to trade him last off season.
Alex Smith was traded for to help in the current and future plans as he was the best QB available to us at the time. Andy believes in him and by the end of playoff game that belief was proven. Smith is in line to get a contract for 5yrs. which is not short term either.

They TAGGED Albert. They GUARANTEED him an average salary of the top 5 LTs in the game.

You can't just say "they couldn't trade him". They TRIED to keep him.

Getting the QB they wanted, and winning some games to get the fan base back was part of the plan.

IMO they should have gotten whatever they could for Albert, but they ****ed that up.
