In hindsight, Tom Brady would have been the number one overall pick in 2000, bar none. He's a Hall Of Famer in waiting. The same goes for Joe Montana. Just because Montana was chosen in the third round doesn't automatically make ANY third round choice a potential Hall of Famer.
Stupid, stupid comparison.
Drew Brees was the FIRST pick of the 2nd round, not the last. Furthermore, his slide was predicated on the fact that the teams above him did NOT need a QB.
The Chiefs NEED the most talented QB they can find and if it's Stafford or Sanchez, either will be the finest QB that the Chiefs have ever drafted in ANY round.

Nah, the fact that 25 SBs were won by 1st rounders is the anomoly (and 3 others by Staubach and Thiesmann who would've been 1st rounders but for the Navy and baseball respectively). Dayton Moore's an idiot as well, he should trade Zack Greinke for a lefty that throws 82 mph, Jaime Moyer's been doing it for 20 years.
It pains me to see people point out Tom Brady as a reason to pass on 1st round QBs when the results are so readily apparent for anyone that isn't a reerun.
