Yeah it just depends on where the chiefs pick in the drafting order.

Being I'm predicting 4 & 12, I doubt there will be any QBs "worth the #_ pick".

If not QB, next season needs to emphasize the pass-rush.

If that means a replacement for Hali, so be it. I'd prefer a replacement for Jackson/Devito that can get some rush from the down-lineman, but Hali's getting older and we'll need to figure out what an answer there fairly soon. Houston can no doubt slide over, but it creates a hole on the left side at that point. We'll need another premium pass-rusher in short order.

John Simon, man. I'm telling you. We should have drafted Simon. :harumph:

He needs to improve tremendously at throwing the football. Unfortunately for him, Urban Meyer doesn't improve QB throwing mechanics.

It's probably not going away for a while. The last four Super Bowl teams all have ties to Parcells. The Ravens are run by Ozzie Newsome who came in under Belichick, and the Niners GM is a disciple of Bill Parcells. He's got his imprint all over the league.

Absolutely.

And it's also possible that it's just Pioli who's a ****ing psycho, but I doubt it. I'm no Falcons expert, but it'd be interesting to see what kind of front office management changes have taken place under Dimitroff in Atlanta.

Obviously lots of wins and consecutive playoff appearances are a part of it, but if that's what we had under Pioli, I don't think anybody would care one bit about candy wrappers and that stuff. Todd Haley would still have his job, and I doubt people like Babb ever write his Arrowhead Anxiety article.

He is not the next RGIII? :(

I read it on the internet!

I'm going to apologize now....because if we don't go QB.....I'm going to be advocating that we draft Tuitt with our 1st round pick.

Call me crazy but AJ McCarron intrigues me as a prospect.

McCarren is interesting. He seems to have a bit more to him than McElroy.

It's the Chiefs fan way.

We are currently at Step 3 of the 7 step process.
