Meh, we have had great offenses and defenses in my time as a Chiefs fan and neither brought us a superbowl. The closest we've had to a successful QB that we DRAFTED is frigging Tyler Thigpen. That may be representative for our entire existence as a pro franchise. I can't think of another QB that we drafted and has ever seriously been considered adequate to being a starter in the NFL. (He sure did better than our supposed starter for the last two seasons.) *** Forgot that we didn't draft Thigpen, got him from the Vikes if I remember correctly.***
I'd love to see a great defense with a mediocre offense or a great offense with a mediocre defense. We just never seem to have both at the same time.
I'm all for drafting a QB, but only if the talent level is there. I fricking HATE USC, and we all know how well Matt Leinhart turned out... I can think of at least 3 QBs still at the college level that I like better than Stafford or Sanchez... this year sucks to be picking in the top 5. (Bradford or McCoy or Tebow FTW.)
Wouldn't it be nice if we could trade our 1st and 3rd this year for the Jets or another team on the decline's 1st this year and 1st next year? Pick up some sleeper in the 4th or 5th this year, put him in direct competition with Thigpen and Gray during training camp and the pre-season, may the best man win.
2-14 sucked this season, but lets make the best of our pick and not pick a QB just because we need a QB... there is plenty of time for Pioli to right the ship, and this year doesn't have to be the year we blow our wad on a QB.
