Ending up in the top 3 picks in a year where there are legitimate HOF caliber QBs available is going to be luck more often than it isn't.

Go out there, compete, try to make the playoffs and get hot. All the while you should have your eyes towards the next QB if you don't already have one that's a top 5 guy.

If you plan to fail - you're going to. A lot.

I don't necessarily agree on the top 5 qb thing as I don't think you have to have one that good to be successful in the league. There are just so many good qbs in the league, to have a top 5 guy, your damn near talking generational type player.

I really like your word choice there. The Chiefs are becoming the new Raiders, and the Fade are going into oblivion where a season in the future the NFL won't realize they are a member and will forget to schedule them. I could see this happening.

You must really be down on the Chiefs if you automatically assume that any Qb they take with the intention of developing will fail inevitably.

Yeah, with the way the Chiefs have been drafting and failing in the early rounds, I can see your point.

But I can also see how you are kind of just a troll.

I'm not assuming that. I am commenting on the fact that you and the others think that only a "homegrown" QB is acceptable and that we should never get a QB any other way.

Lol, kind of like that.

I guess you would draft a Tyson Jackson over an Andrew Luck, wouldn't you? You defensive lineman loving troll****** you!

The chiefs wouldn't pass on Andrew Luck though.
