I am all for drafting a qb but it needs to be the right qb. I don't want to be like Minnesota last year and reach for a qb like ponder. Now this year they will be in position to grab Barkley but likely won't since they reached for ponder last year.

Who the **** is talking about a season?

We are talking about filling the most important position in team sports for 12 to 15 years.

I bet those Colt fans are still pissed about that losing season in 1999.

If we draft a qb in the first, he will be surrounded by a more talented team than any of the first rounders from last year are.

It's time.

I am starting to see mock drafts with tannehill going in the mid first round. There could be a run on qb early. We really need to get ahead of Miami, washington, and Seattle

It's wash and miami we need to win a few more games. The Seahawks should beat the Cardinals or Rams (sorry Rams fan, Rams are really banged up right now).

If we get ahead of those teams we should be able to get barkley

Plain and simple, the Chiefs ALWAYS pass up a great opportunity to draft a superstar potential QB. They've passed on John Elway, Joe Montana, Dan Marino, and Brett Favre when each of them could have easily been snatched up in the first round of the drafts they were in by the Chiefs. Problem is, the Chiefs' ball club are extremely bull-headed in this area and refuse to kick the habit of signing career back ups that sucked with other squads. Matt Cassell is the 3rd "so-called" QBOTF on the Chiefs since 1998 to have failed to meet the team's standards of what they look for in a QB of the Future. Elvis Grbac and Trent Green were the other two failed QBOTF's.

The Chiefs need a head coach that has the leadership of a guy like Bill Cowher or Don Shula, and an Offensive Coordinator that has multiple offensive strategies in case the first couple of strategies end up failing the team. And, they need a GM that has the enthusiasm of Carl Peterson, but is bold enough to think outside the box and give younger players at core offensive positions (QB, WR, RB) a fighting chance for longer than a year.

We dont need a Cowher as coach, not at all, we need a front office and a Head Coach that want to TRY to draft that franchise qb. Once that is filled (yes, i know its not easy) or at least take a shot at filling it, the rest will fall into place.

Also every team in front of us is a team that could trade down to a team like WAS or MIA. We know MIA really wants one, atleast the owner does. I doubt KC moves up so to me every team above us is a threat to take a QB even if its just them trading to a team that wants one.

TBH, Pioli has yet to be given the opportunity to draft a QB with what people would say has franchise potential.

Cowher did take a chance on Ben Rothlisberger. Even though he has yet to win a Superbowl MVP honor, he did help the Steelers get to 2 Superbowls, the first with Cowher as Head Coach.

FYP

You may think Trent Green was "failed", but he was more than good enough to get us to a SB.

I think Clements would have been a great hire as OC....LAST YEAR.

Its too bad we had Cassel....I bet we called and he LOLd.

BTW to those that aren't aware of Clements history in KC...

Clements was a quarterback for us awhile ago and was actually a coach for us not too long ago. QB coach in 2000

So, he has history with the organization.

WHAT WE NEED IS CLARK TO SELL THE TEAM TO A GUY WITH BALLS.OTHER WISE ITS GOING TO BE THE SAME WALMART MENTALITY .REAL TALK

Clark wrote those checks, dumbass.

Cassel is Pioli's pet.
