And big ****ing surprise, you're the one who is making a mountain out of an imaginary mohill. Yes, it's definitely true that Scott Pioli, who is ever-present during the combine doesn't give a shit about the combine because... he said so in his interview. I heard he's sitting in the corner with his headphones on listening to Tupac and flipping people off.
Nothing I said was wrong. The combine is overrated. Teams find a few surprises and, if you do, then yes you take an extra look at the guy. But you talk about interviews... you think the scouts haven't done that already? You think the scouts haven't interviewed every single last person that knows a good prospect? They probably even know what color briefs prospects wear.
So yes, I'd rather the scouts be the most influential people in the process than a GM that is probably seeing these guys for the first time at the Senior Bowl or Combine. The Combine is meant to either confirm or refute what scouts have already seen. And if it refutes, you take an extra look. But the majority of the homework is already done. That's not unique to the Chiefs. That is the way almost every franchise runs their scouting operations. Why do you think the Chiefs had such a shitty draft in 2009? Because Pioli stupidly froze his scouts out and decided he was going to make all of his decisions based on the senior bowl and combine. Stupid decision.
