I'm not going to just shit out happy thoughts and pray. I genuinely thought this was a good Draft, and TO BE FAIR, virtually every single one of these picks were projects, something which I hadn't anticipated on Draft Day. Jackson and Succop are the ONLY players from this Draft that were readymade.
So no, the jury is still out a couple more years. And I could still be wrong. But I'm not going to resign to blind pessimism simply because it's easier to be that way.

I'd have more respect for this post if it
A) acknowledged that you gave the Chiefs a C- for their 2008 draft
B) acknowledged that the "perpetual pessimists" were up in arms with joy over the 2008 draft.
