We have real needs at QB. I know a lot of people want Thigpen to start next year, but what happens if Pioli determines he can't hit the broad side of a barn from watching film, or his terrible footwork. What if Thigpen's cut before training camp. He probably won't be cut, you need arms in camp.
As for the top 5 players and being worth the money--that's the cost of doing business in the NFL. It's hard for us to comprehend spending that kind of money on a player, but if that's the going rate for a legitimate franchise QB you have to get him. Many teams draft a QB then fill in the other positions around him.
Us bitching cuz Sanchez has no time to throw in October? OK I'll sign up for that--I'm sure I'll bitch too, but I'll be thrilled that the Chiefs are one step closer to a championship caliber team.
