That's not a defensible line of thinking. If anything, it's an admission of their incompetence and it could be seen as impugning the selection of Moeaki, not supporting it.

Dave Meggett on the field or off the field? ;)

Make a plan, make a decision and move forward. These guys can't play the "what if" game if they can get their guy.

I think the problem with this particular selection is that you don't agree with them moving up to get Moeaki. That's fine but it doesn't make your opinion "right" and their move "wrong" on 4/25/2010.

It may make you "right" at some point during this season or next but I find this pick hard to get worked up about. If Moeaki becomes the player they envision, who cares that Cam Thomas may have been there later?

We can go with off too, because much like Meggett is a convicted rapist, the justifications of these picks represent a rape of critical thinking.

No, and I never claimed as such.

It's not surprising that someone with your limited mental capabilities would draw such an erroneous conclusion, though.

FTR, I happen to like most of those guys quite a bit and communicate with them outside of the forum. I have great respect for them as human beings and our friendships.

I just happen to think they're wrong.

Passing up a franchise QB for a ****ing 5 tech is criminal. Drafting for a one year wonder was flat out dumb. Taking another 5 tech and a junior CB with issues was asinine. I've complained about all of those moves for the past year and I haven't changed my opinion.

But in taking the best safety prospect in a decade, two dynamic players, a ****ing stud guard and a TE with a gigantic upside, I have absolutely NO complaints. I like the 5th round selections as well.

I think this 40 time bullshit is overrated as well. Scouts look at two things: How fast a guy plays (projected 40 time) and his 40 time. If his projected time is faster than his actual time, that means he's an instinctual player on defense. There have been plenty of "fast" draft choices (Gholston, DJ, etc.) that can't play at the next level consistently (or at all) because they aren't instinctive football players.

The bottom line is that the Chiefs DID address needs in the 2010 draft but obviously not the "needs" that some felt were necessary this year.

My question to you is this....

Why act like a complete asshole when people don't agree with you ?

Why is your evaluation better than someone elses? If you are right then be firm in your conviction without resorting to name calling and insults. You act like Kim Il-jung when it comes to people responding to you.

Seriously....I've never had an issue with your evaluations of players. It's your tone this year. It's like you have an absolute passion to be 100% correct and make sure everyone sees it your way. If not then you attack with all the fervor of the Mongol horde.

We'll all be wrong in some way, shape or form with one of the players drafted this year by the Chiefs (or not drafted). We'll forget the ones we were wrong about and crow about the few we were logically correct about.

Sad...that is what it really boils down to.

The only pick I am justifiying is McCluster I think he is going to be a very good player and we desperately needed an offensive playmaker. I have a feeling you are going to be happy about him during the season.

Ask Jerome Harrison what he thinks we need.

I don't think many people are complaining about the players themselves, as much as they are upset that the draft fell right to us in terms of value and need, and we overlooked it.

For a HC to say that getting a KR was a "must" for a team that has the worst front 7/LB corp in football is criminal.

Kick returners don't win you championships. Neither do undersized part-time slot WR's.

One thing I can guarantee you is that you will NOT sniff a championship without having a solid front seven/run defense.
