There is a bigger picture agenda here that I don't think that a lot of people are willing to accept.

Spending two 2nd rounders on Alex smith crippled two draft classes.

Couple that with the fact that last years draft was about the worst in recent memory, and of course the Chiefs would have the first pick in that abortion.

The Irony of that is that there were several people on this forum who were flaming the Chiefs for not taking geno smith, fair, but then when accepted that wasn't going to be the case, also flamed them for thinking about taking Joeckell, insisting that they would be okay with taking Eric Fisher, just not joeckell.

Now some of those same ass hats, are anti fisher.

Meanwhile, Joeckell has looked really good the first two preseason games this year.

This is a process. you do not go from a 2-14 football team to super bowl contender in one night.

it didn't happen in philly for the eagles when Andy reid arrived.

it happened quickly, yes, but not over night.

they built it the same way they are doing it here.

Slowly weeding out the garbage that was there, which they are doing, and will continue doing next year when players like Hali (hes not garbage, but hes old) Bowe, (unless he has an out of body experience all year, and he too will be 31 next season) and building a young foundation around Alex smith going forward.

I get it. the Chiefs fans have suffered for so many DECADES, not years DECADES that patience is none existent.

But it will end up in a positive.

you can already see the depth that is being built around the team. There are some areas that need to be still addressed, but in reality, the rbs are being built, the pass rush is being built, the oline is being built, and they still need work, but I think that the idea was for long term longevity, rather than instant gratification.

ill get flamed, and called an idiot, but for decades the same adage has always been true.

rome was not built in a day.

cheers.
