People try to equate this to giving up picks for Griffin and then drafting Cousins. But it's not. Cousins was a project most people though would be a stanzi-style career backup (and he still may be that). What we're talking about the Chiefs doing would be to spend at least 3 high round picks on two different starters at a position where only one player can actually be on the field. That would be pretty unprecedented. And one of them is going to be a backup for at least two years. That's an awful lot in draft value to spend on a backup, whichever Smith it is, without even considering the $$$ given to Chase Daniel (which I don't think is really an issue in any case).

I think it would be fine if they did it. I would probably think the picks for Alex Smith were an utter waste, but then again I'm going to think that whether Geno is here or not. I'd love having a young starter and a veteran backup though, or a veteran mentoring a young future starter. I just don't think it's going to happen. Too unconventional a move, especially for a franchise as traditionally conservative as this one.

I guess I'll believe we have the stones to draft a QB the day they do it.

I just hope Reid was letting us onto something by saying he's rebuilding the QB position. Hopeful I know lol.
