I wouldn't be too upset with Stafford, Sanchez or Bradford. Although it's only probable we'll get a chance to go after Stafford at this point. I don't see how any Chiefs fan could be disappointed with any of the 3 after watching horrible to decent QB play for the last 2+ decades.
Stafford has a slightly better arm than Bradford. He has a slightly better build. Bradford is probably the better game manager of the two, and he doesn't make mistakes. As far as mobility...they're both mobile enough to make due in this league. I can't hate on Stafford. He looks a bit rusty at times, but it's college. I expect that. I wouldn't be upset at all with the pick.
And as far as Oher possibly grading out to be the best LT prospect in years...well, we took an LT with our 15th pick. He may have been a G, but we drafted him to play LT, and he's done a pretty damn good job in his first three starts, especially going up against Abraham and Seymour.
Albert is our LT of the future, and I could understand the desire to lock up a premier left side of the line for the next 10 years, but it doesn't matter how beastly they can block if we continue to trot out scrubs like Thigpen to play behind them. You don't draft a G at #15 overall. It doesn't make sense. We have a LT, and we ought to give him a chance to develop before we decide to shuffle him inside. Albert could be the next Willie Roaf. We'll have to wait and see.
And suppose we pass on Stafford and draft Oher, or Rey, or whoever. WTF happens when we do better than expected and end up drafting 7th or 8th or some sh*t in 2010 and both Bradford and Sanchez are on the board and we miss out altogether? That would be a travesty.
