And you'll have to wait and see which underclassman declares as the 2012 crop of QB's might be even better with guys like Nick Foles of Arizona, Blaine Gabbert of Missouri, Terrelle Pryor of Ohio State, Matt Barkley of USC (sophomore this year), Andrew Luck of Stanford (redshirt sophomore this year), John Brantley of Florida, Kellen Moore of Boise State (Jesus, this kid really looks good - completely poised with an amazing touch, but he'll get downgraded because he's not prototypical size.), Garrett Gilbert of Texas (sophomore this year), etc.

If the Chiefs were to pull the trigger on a QB this year, I'm for Ponder. However, there isn't a guy who's come out in the past couple of years who is like Von Miller. He's the absolute prototype for a rush linebacker in a 3-4 set and he's got one of the best first steps I've ever seen. It's Derrick Thomas level good. And the Chiefs pass rush is anemic. I don't think that they can pass on a guy like Miller. Shore up the O-line in subsequent rounds, get them into the system, and go for a QB in 2012.
Good info. This gives me an idea. I'm going to start a "QB draft prospects" thread strictly dedicated to this position. Please put all your info/opinion there as the year goes on. With all due respect to billay this thread is getting a bit muddy with all the talk about other positions.
