There is no draft pick or FA signed the last two years with an "elite ceilling."

Not a one...

WR1

WR2

CB1

TE1

TE2

LG



I just can't find glasses that are red and gold enough to convince myself that all of those things are going to be sufficiently addressed with internal players.


I think we could scratch RT off the unknown list. We've seen a decent bit of Stephenson to know what we'll likely be getting with him.

I'd also move ILB to the below average list. He's been around long enough for us to know he sucks.

.. And this post makes me wonder. Will Sean Smith be our LCB or will they keep him at RCB and put Coop at LCB like they did most of last season?

when Sean Smith played LCB for the Dolphins in his final year he was absolutely dog shit horrible. He lost himself a big contract because of it. He can't cover teams number 1 WRs majority of the time on the left.

a rebuild of what was originally a rebuild? So it takes the Chiefs 8 years to rebuild where it takes a team like Seattle 3.

You don't seem aware of this, but KC keeps changing coaches and that always reboots the build process.

Seattle, unlike KC, was smart enough to fire a shitty coach after one season and hired a brilliant guy that most of the folks around here would have thrown a temper tantrum had we hired him. We gave Herm three, Haley two, and Crennel one. Seattle booted the guy who didn't perform... we gave them jobs for six seasons.

With all the other ?'s it won't matter...

And you're fine with this? Like the Chiefs get a free pass in certain "down" years because of this "process." Rather than demand a consistent winner as a fan?

What happens when this go around fails and this place is yelling for the next new coach and/or GM? The process resets again and that regime gets a pass in down years too?

This isn't me writing off Reid/Dorsey. It's me saying what if they end up like the rest, and we move on to yet another new FO/coaching staff. Theres only two ways this "process" will go, and they will either win, and fans will be happy or they will lose, and fans will start to get a little crazy/the sky is falling when the losing comes. I feel like the leash should be short for the Chiefs to just throw seasons.

The only way to get a consistent winner is with a QB.

I'm not sure Cooper will fare much better, although he is definitely our best hope.

I am optimistic, but we shall see.


Whether we have a QB or not, we shouldn't be crying over losing an overpaid CB since it really doesn't matter.

Not even discount-double-check could overcome a $3itty O line...

cooper, and aj Jenkins have elite celings.

Fisher, knile Davis, Commings, Dee ford, Phillip Gaines, also have elite ceilings. They are all physical specimens, in some sort. I doubt they will ever reach said ceilings, but the potential is there.
