When I said I would be OK with taking Eugene Monroe at #3
 
all I heard was that you don't take a right tackle that high. Does everyone still feel that way now that our franchise QB is a punching bag?

You don't take a Right Tackle that high and nothing leads me to believe Tyson Jackson was a bad pick.

The problem is that there were some stopgap veterans available for any of those 3 positions. And you could easily get a decent RT, C, Guard in the 3rd or 4th round. The Chiefs passed both times.

The options at o-line weren't outstanding. But they were there. And the Chiefs passed at every turn.

I'm not saying that Jackson was a bad pick. I'm just saying if we had Albert and Monroe, 2/5 of our O-Line would be set for a long time.

Just because the braintrust ****ed up going one way does not mean they should have ****ed up in the opposite direction.

Well I'm not one that believes in the take the best player available shit,I think you take the player you need.I was hoping for Curry at #3 so I was way off anyway.

Not really. Monroe wouldn't want to stay at LT in the longrun. He'd just eventually leave for LT money.

And the fact the remains that you don't need to spend high picks to find a good RT.

Riiiiiight. Just pluck 'em in the second day like they're plug-and-play.

You just have to love this ChiefsPlanet myth.

That's just absolutely nuts. If you have one and can get two and lock them up, do it. It isn't a question of high picks or money. Two top OTs mean a lot more than filling two roster spots. They mean better rushing, higher probabilty of keeping QB healthy (as well as each other healthy, as when one OT whiffs, the other is in danger of getting rolled up - why the great OLs always tended to STAY HEALTHY). No brainer.

Tyson Jackson is Brett Kiesel with dreds...

Monroe is a franchise OT.

I just figured we'd go defense and I figured Curry would step up better and faster than the other guys I liked thats all.

Buehler445 08-30-2009 08:37 PM

Uhhhh.... #3 overall on RT :spock:

Yes. I still feel that way.
