Rick Mirer had a pretty good rookie season.

I guess they had "track records" too.

One year in the NFL > One year in college

Yes I think the Chiefs should base their draft on Broncos and Raiders messageboard contributors.
Brilliant

Deal with it. This isn't Carl Peterson. He doesn't care what fans think. He will do what is best for the team

How can we have traded the pick when St. Louis hasn't made the pick yet? Whomever is getting the pick will want to know who is there.

Unless we have traded it for a player like bolding or peppers. :hmmm:

I'd rather have Crabtree.

i'm starting to think that is possible, if we can't trade down...

I repeat, it's just stupid to let this info out right now.

I imagine it's possible that someone like Cinncinatti could have traded up to ensure they had a shot at one of the top two LTs.

There is more like a 5 year difference. The average NFL career is 4 years.

Hootie 04-25-2009 12:33 PM

according to the National Football Post...the $36M is guaranteed.

You've also got people anointing Ryan and Flacco as great QB's after one year as well. Just the nature of the beast...

I'd agree to a point... but at the same time that's just an excuse, because Sanchez isn't going to get a chance to wait until he's 27 to produce. He's going to get more time, and he deserves to get more time... but in the end he's gonna have to start producing in a couple years or people will start labeling him a bust.

What the hell does Peterson have to do with what I said?

Well, if we move our LT to RT and draft a LT, we all of a sudden have the potential for a great ****ing line. I just salivate at thinking about having a offensive line like we had in the first part of this decade. An offensive line that allowed Trint Green to ****ing have great numbers.

I always remember everyone saying, it all starts in the trenches, Fix your lines then worry about the other parts later. Why does this not apply now? Why not make out offensive line now a top priority even if it means moving our LT to RT and Drafting a guy like Monroe? Why is that bad? I just fail to see it i guess.

I am not saying i would be mad if they did draft a guy like Crabtree. I am just thinking we are leaning towards Monroe and that i dont think its a bad move.

Sure, simply put I don't want to hear how Cassel needs time to develop like he's really gonna hit his stride at 31 or something.

but it's not just 1 year. Sure, Cassel has played just 1 year, but Pioli has worked with the man day in and day out for the last few years.

He knows his strengths, weaknesses, work ethic, and opportunities for improvement. You can't discount that.

Sign and trade for picks and draft Sanchez...just sayin... I could care less either way. In Pioli I trust!
