exactily! how many king carl drafts did we follow Kipers top guys list only to end up with a crap draft? Most of the time our drafts seemed good at the time b/c they seemed to mirror the various scouting reports ... however, we all know how most our the previous regimes drafts ended up
While it makes no sense to me, its not my job to know everything that needs to be known to conduct a successful draft. As such, when i hear names mentioned that i know little to nothing about...i have a WTF moment. Then however, i remind myself that its Scott and not Carl running the show and i take a deep breath and put my trust in the front office. A change from the past is a welcomed change in my opinion. This draft wasnt gang busters or flashy, but it does appear that Pioli is trying to build us a team here in KC. Which is a contrast to what we are use to here, which was constant stop gaps and slapping duct-tape on problem areas.
Time will tell what a watch wont on this one, but in no shape or form was it a sign that the ship was about to blowup thanks to being bombed by the
copter.
