They were dead ****ing wrong.
"Next year will be better" isn't a good strategy.

Interestingly enough I recall Mayock repeatedly stating how that 2013 QB class scared him and that he didn't see a QB in that class worth a top 10 pick or a franchise QB in the whole lot. He's expressed the same sentiments toward the 2017 class.
He was right about the 2013 class and it's a safe bet his thinking wasnt in the minority of the scouting community. That's likely the case again this year.
Not saying this entire class of QB'S will be nothing but backups or free agents in four years like the '13 group...just that it's highly probable the scouts aren't as high on the 2017 crop of quarterbacks as fans are.
As for the 2018 class....nobody is suggesting to wait for it. But earlier was a post suggesting the Chiefs use a 1st and two 3rd round picks to move and draft a QB THIS year. Having watched and read quite a bit about this QB class, I don't think that'd be a wise move at all.
The 2018 class, however, is one where I see talent worth such a move. I never suggested "waiting" or passing on a QB in '17 to take one in '18.
"Waiting" on a QB class goes against the principles Dorsey was schooled on by Wolf which say it's best to draft a QB every year.
So it's likely the Chiefs do draft a QB in 2017...which quarterback and in what round remains to be seen. Based on how Dorsey has drafted and repeatedly stated in press conferences, however, I don't see them packaging those picks to go after one.
