lets count all the things Pioli's done to deserve props.
1. Traded For Castle 2. Drafted T Jack 3. Hired Haley 4. Let Orton Walk (not a Franchise QB but better than anyone we have on the roster) 5. Drafted Poe when he should have worked a trade to at least get the third best QB in this years draft. yeah Pioli deserves mucho props, if it wasnt form Herms great draft of 08 he would have been fired already. |
Poe was the only pick that made sense when you consider the needs the Chiefs have. The only other thing Pioli could have done was trade up for a Barron, Kuechly, or Tannehill.
Yeah Poe didn't have a lot of production but from everything I have heard about him he is a high effort player for a guy his size and he has all the tools to be an elite 3-4 NT. Poe was well worth the 11th pick in the draft IMO. |

IMO, they felt they needed a big strong body to play at the weakest position of the defense. They went and got him. Obviously I think that trading down to get him would have been ideal, but I, nor you, don't know if that was a possibility. Obviously they felt if they moved they couldn't get him. I can't fault that. |
Poe fit the criteria they have for a NT. Big, strong, great athleticism, great lateral movement.
Now we will see if it translates. |

Yes. You definitely can't knock a guys motor who plays every down on a crap team and all over the place as well. |
There's 2 picks that I actually like in this draft.
Menzi and Gray. Beyond that, the rest are guys that are head scratchers, at best. I think Jeff Allen has potential, but keneche Osemele would have been a better pick. Donald Stephenson has huge potential, but Bobbie Massie would have been a better pick for the immediate needs of this team. Poe is a huge question mark. |
A good thing about this. Once we get a replacement for Cassel, The pieces will be in place to help him succeed. I'm hoping Stanzi beefed up in the off season and comes in and makes his presence known.

Who were we going to draft after round 1 that was going to be a starter? What position outside of FB and NT (QB off the table as we know) do we have legitimate openings for a starter now after the off season pick up of Winston, Boss etc...? The starting 22 is pretty much set barring injury and the skill positions have backups for the most part, our whole draft was going to be for depth after Poe. |

I like your attitude. Most everyone on here is a smartass, incompetent, unknowledgeable "chiefs fan". I dint post much because replies are from dumbasses saying, you spelled a word wrong; Christ.........idiots. Good read, good tude. Open the gates, let the peasants in.

But something had to be wrong with Massie for him to slide that far. And I don't think they really viewed Osemele as a zone guy. I think the mayocks and kipers of the world who grade these guys throw peoples views of drafts off. Obviously, what Mayock and Kiper had people graded as, scouts didn't agree on some guys. |

It wasn't a sexy draft, but once again, you could see probably about 5 of these guys not just making the roster, but earning a roster spot. And there's some potential boom that a few of these guys could be quality starters in 3 years. I'd give the draft a B, but yeah, the nature of the later picks makes this entire thing ride on Poe. |

2. Jackson is starting to play well. Everything I've read about d lineman confirms that it takes some time. 3. Haley was a bold move. He was a young OC from a Superbowl team. Complaining about this cracks me up. 4. Your love for Orton is duly noted. However, outside of those 3 games what has Orton shown. Orton is Matt Cassel 5. A move that would have taken a lot of picks to pull. Tbh, you're upset that we didn't throw away a bunch of picks to move up and take a quarterback who has only started a handful of games in college. and you're upset about the trade for cassel? |

Pioli is fail unless he proves other wise. Any GM who refuses to acknowledge the Aids abortion which is Cassell needs to hit the bricks. The fact he resigned all of Carl and Herm`s picks is great..good job dip shit for doing what should of obviously been done. Now , what has done himself? Barry is the only solid pick we got out of his drafts. Everyone else is either okay or injured.
GM of the decade my ass. **** him , **** the "Clarks." Sale the got damn team to an owner who actually cares about winning a Super Bowl and not just about winning at the ticket booth. JFC its been almost 20 years since we won a ****ing playoff game. Its been almost 40 years since we had a HOF QB on our team (exluding Montana). Im sick and tired of being the team known for tailgating and loud crowds...I would much rather trade that for a Super Bowl win..jfc at this point a play off win would even do |
