As long as you pro-1st-round-QB guys hedge your arguments by leaving it up to the Chiefs staff beliefs, I don't see how you can be critical of them when they end up passing on a QB. It's a no-brainer to say that they should pick a QB if they believe he's a legit franchise guy. I'm sure that both Pioli and Peterson would completely agree with that so it's not really relevant to the argument.

The argument comes when you guys take the position that the Chiefs staff is too risk averse or when they don't recognize obvious talent the way you perhaps think that you do. For those in your camp that don't see a legit QB in this draft, the argument really disappears.

I know that you've advocated Clausen in the past so you're welcome to argue that the Chiefs are screwing up if they don't take him, but if they don't, time will be the only judge of who was right. So where do you stand on the #5 pick. Is there a legit QB or not? I'm with milkman in the "not" category so that leads me to embrace Chris Meck's approach of taking a project in a later round for this year.
Clausen is still my top option. But I also think we lost out on him by beating the Broncos. Won't be long and we will know on that. In fact, I'm thinking Suh, McCoy, Berry, and Clausen will go in some sort of order in the first 4 picks.

And, I am not comfortable with the Okung/Davis LT selection being tossed around. I'd rather someone like Buffalo or SF might swing a deal where we could drop down and get some more players in the top 50 rather than go one of those two that high. And I know I will be in the minority here, but then I would take a flier on Tebow in the 3rd if he is still there. Dude may have some technique issues, but he is definately a winner.
