I don't understand this Albert bashing. He is a good LT. We have way more pressing needs on our team and even on our OL. |

Move him to guard , draft Okung, Move him to guard Draft Smith, move him to guard draft Loeukel (sp?) Its been a never ending cycle every year for the last 5 years. I dont understand it. But the problem is its not just the fans, it guys like mayock and Kiper as well. "my sources inside the chiefs warroom say the pick is in....and it will be Russell Okung" Jason La conforna |
The only concern re: Albert is his back. That's why I wouldn't mind a 1 year franchise tag for him just to make sure he's ready to play a full season.
But you can't move Albert to guard. Playing him as a guard would require that you either play him at LG and pay him as a franchise LT (if he's tagged), you give him the contract of a franchise LT and play him at LG (horrible), or you ask him to take a guard-sized contract. Since there are probably 5-10 teams out there who would pay him LT money in a heartbeat, THAT'S not happening either. Drafting Joeckel is a horrible idea. |
Also, realize that not only are the "true fans" completely deaf and dumb to the idea of taking a QB #1, but the football media is also. It's unfathomable that the CHIEFS would draft a QB #1. But the Raiders at #3? That makes sense, says Gil Brandt.

Didn't we just do this awful shit for the last 4 years? Bring in a backup QB and try to build around him???
HELL NO-ONLY AS A BACKUP. WHY DO WE NEED TWO CASSELS? WTF?!?!?! :# |

And this is hardly the depths of your dumbassery. You've said far dumber things in past drafts here. NOBODY thinks your opinions are great. They all think you're ****ing stupid. So go fist a cow. |

There are two other options I'd prefer for our BACKUP position. -Sign a vet. -Draft our own guy. Cassel's fine as a backup. That's what he is, and his salary drops to a reasonable amount for one. I think he's toxic and will ultimately be cut, and I'm fine with that. I'm great with that. But giving up a pick for someone else's trash for our backup? Yeah, no. |
No.
They can post all the glamour pics they want but he's a turd. |
My initial gut reaction was a big "Oh, HELL no!"
But as I consider... Foles is a totally different scenario than Cassel, or Bono, or Grbac, or Deberg, or anyone else The Chiefs have traded for/signed over the last twenty or so years. Foles was Reid's QBOTF. He was not drafted to be a backup, he was drafted to be the starter-probably in 2014, but that was the idea. IF Reid wanted to do this, I would cut them slack and get behind it. This would be more like an acquiring of Brett Favre from the Falcons and less like an acquiring Matt Cassel. I'd give a 2nd for him, as i think he's shown a little at the NFL level and thus would place him above the Glennon/Nassib types in this year's draft. I still would personally place him behind the Geno/Wilson level, though. But honestly, not by much. I might consider swapping firsts-and taking whichever is left from the Geno/Wilson/Barkley group with the Eagles #1. Take it to camp and let'em fight it out. |
