I stumbled on this while searching for another thread. amazing read. Nice to evaluate some of the predictions over the years.

Lol at "He is a leader of men" regarding Sanchez. Aaron Curry? Hahaha. Freakin blowhard. Posts like the OP are why so many laugh at some of the football takes around here.

OP was spot on (i.e. correct) about Aaron Curry.

The OP was spot on about 99% of his post, but people will only focus on the single mistake that was made.

And you could argue that his "scouting report" on Sanchez is correct as well - he had shown these attributes at the time this was written. Just because he failed in NY doesn't mean the OP or any of the national scouts that said something similar were wrong.

Last I checked the QB currently starting for KC didn't exactly set the world on fire his first 7 years in the league - so I'll be happy to provide some of you a step ladder to get off your high horse.

99% and single mistake? I think that is generous.

This thread inspires in me two emotions:

1) Amazement. The OP by Hamas is one of the most thorough and insightful posts I've seen on this site.

2) Sadness... that the Chiefs still haven't attempted to draft a franchise quarterback five years and two more rebuilds later.

The top dozen picks of the 2009 NFL draft has to be one of the weakest draft classes ever. It was almost impossible to advocate anyone in that draft without looking bad afterward.

3) Amazement and sadness...that this fanbase still thinks it's perfectly acceptable to have the 1st, 11th, 5th, 3rd and 5th overall pick since 2008 and not have used one of them on a QB.

Sickening that two of those picks are no longer with the team.

BUILD THROUGH THE DRAFT!

Nah, I think Weedon and Quinn have pulled out a win here and there.

Here's what you can take out of this. The Draft is an inexact science. (Read: Sanchez, Mark). However, you can't sit on the sidelines and hope that your QB (The most important position on the Team) is going to just fall into your lap if you don't spend a decent draft pick to get him. At some mother****ing point, you HAVE TO draft a gawdamn QB in the first 2 rounds, preferably the first. The fact that we haven't taken one in the first round, in 3 decades, is beyond embarrassing.
