What quarterback that comes out doesn't have flaws?

Michael Vick was 6 feet tall.

Cam Newton came from an option offense and had one season in college.

Matt Ryan threw a shit ton of interceptions.

Philip Rivers had a funky ass release.

RGIII played in the spread and wasn't very big.

Philly fans all HATED the McNabb selection.

There is very rarely a Peyton Manning or Andrew Luck in the QB class.

They all have flaws.

That might be difficult if we go 8-8 for 3 years.....

I don't know enough about those QB's really, but from what I saw , I liked Barkley.....I'd rather hang on to Albert and roll the dice on the best of those guys.......and have a 34th overall pick to maybe grab a WR or ILB or whatnot

Well apparently, their flaws were something that Reid and Dorsey decided either couldn't be fixed or weren't worth fixing.

Well, we won't know for certain until April 25th.

There's no way the Chiefs spend their top two picks on quarterbacks. Trading the #34 to San Francisco certainly means that Alex Smith will start for the next two seasons, minimum.

Dorsey has already stated that the number one pick is up for grabs. Hopefully, they can get back into the second round (if they aren't swapping seconds with San Fran) because there's quite a bit of talent at the WR and TE positions, something the Chiefs desperately need.

His best season was not as good as Cassel's best season. So I would say it is pretty safe to say he will have little success.

If we only we had a high second round pick...

People here have been saying for a while there is a lot of talent in that range with those positions. But we don't need another WR because we have Baldwin who might just need a real NFL QB throwing him the ball so we went out and got one...err, well...we got a QB.

Sadly, this. It's likely that if KC drafts a QB, it will be in the 5th round.

mr. tegu 02-28-2013 05:48 PM

And I really do hope they trade back into the second now because we really need an impact receiving threat. Before I was against trading back then trading up into the first by giving away picks but I would love that now to get back into the second.

I voted above .500 but now I meant below .500. I forgot just how bad he sucked before Harbaugh came along. 7-9 or 6-10.

Dont be so glum,chum!On average 5th round picks almost play like 10-12 games as a starter over their career! YAY!


Oh and going from 34th overall pick to 60 something will only cost us about 25-30% of an average 34th overall pick's career, not to mention pro bowl probability (quality)

He's going to play good, relative to Cassel, which is about sub par, at the start and get progressively worse.
