That is indeed the case, so questioning it every single days does nothing to further the current conversation.

If they trade Albert, they aren't gonna trade down unless they still stay in the top five.

I hate that.

We have the picks and opportunity to do a proper rebuild and we look like we're playing "win now."

Look at what the Lambs did by trading down, going BPA, and immediately turning themselves into a competitive team. That team went 8-8 and took the NFC Champs to overtime twice.

Win now does not have to = FA. Drafting good players makes a good team and trading down this year (if we can) would give us picks now and in the future...

We don't have to take our LT at no 1. We can trade down.

There are 3 top 15 LT prospects this year...

Why not take the chance? It's like they are bending over backwards to NOT draft a quarterback.

Because they are in win now mode and this is a weak QB class that they aren't confident in at all.

They're taking BPA and it's become abundantly clear that the BPA on our board is not a QB.

They have a tab coming up that says "chiefs next move" on espnews.

I bet something about Albert...

This has been discussed over and over.....The Chiefs can not ask their fanbase to sit and wait another 1-3 years for a rebuild to come to fruition. Not when they have been as bad as they have been since 2007. The bleeding has to stop now. There are no "sure things" at Qb like last year.

Dude, every single move they've made this offseason is to "Win Now".

You don't trade for a starting QB with the #34 overall pick if you're not wanting to "win now".

You don't sign two of the free agent market's best cornerbacks if you're not wanting to "win now".

You don't sign a pass catching TE that had but one drop all season last year if you're not wanting to "win now".

You don't sign a 28 year old run stopping defensive end monster if you're not wanting to "win now".

And finally, you don't make your Franchise WR the third highest paid in the game or your punter the highest paid punter in the game, if you don't want to "win now".

The Chiefs want to win in 2013.

We need to hit on the picks this year. The last 4 years we've done a terrible job at adding talent in the draft.

That's 4 years older our core players are. If we don't do a solid job this year and next what we have will be declining before what we add hit's their prime...

Possible trade flexibility with the tender signed, and the Dolphins as a potential partner to ass rape us with only a second round compensation pick.

Yeah and we still have plenty of good draft picks. The way it stands now we can draft starters but not play them till they're ready. And even though we signed a FA at a position the price tag isn't so high that we won't play a rook if wins the job.

Doing all of that and then protecting your veteran "win now" QB with a rookie LT? Definition of reeruned.
