Sanchez will throw at combine.

[SenselessChiefsFan]

Okay, I have been critical of this kid from the start. I really want a franchise QB, but I don't want the Chiefs to reach. There are a lot of QB's that go high under the theory that 'this may be our 'best' chance to get a franchise QB'.

But, with ALL things, I try to be fair minded. I love the fact that this kid is willing to do the full workout at the combine. That shows confidence. That shows courage.

Now, it may also show a lack of level headed decision making. And, at the QB position, you want a guy that doesn't force things. But, I must admit, that I like this move.

TOPIC: Pat White, he sure looks great!

This guy looks great. He is by far the best looking qb. The announcers are on his sack too!

ya, he's something.......

He's also a WR, which would make him ideal for teams that run the wildcat.

he'd be a good mid round pick up because he can play so many posistions.

i suggest you evaluate players on their playing ability instead of if you want to jump their bones
Not I, the announcers mainly, Gruden.... lol Honestly, he looks like the best QB at the combine. That doesn't translate to the field necessarily as we all know.

As long as it doesn't matter to you that Gruden is insane, go with it.

he did better than sanchez. honestly, i've been pretty impressed with pat white, between the senior bowl and his combine workouts. if he can catch worth a shit, you have to take a serious look at this kid.

Maybe he's Pioli's next 6th Round wunderkind! I don't think you have to worry about him being picked at #3, though.

I wish Pioli would "pick" the proper ordinance necessary to demolish most of that forum's membership.


Sadness.

ANY news clippings for Sanchez at the combine? ANYTHING?!


More defensive skullduggery:

Combine Comment 2/21
February 22, 2009 - Bob Gretz


A couple of guys that the Chiefs will surely have an interest in with that third pick of the first round met the media on Saturday at the NFL Scouting Combine.

Here’s some of what linebacker Aaron Curry and defensive end Brian Orakpo had to say.

Wake Forest linebacker Aaron Curry

Would he like to play for the Chiefs?

“Sure, I would love to play for Kansas City. I have a high school teammate
who plays for Kansas City, DeMarcus Tyler. Derrick Johnson is another linebacker out of Texas that I’ve always watched because he was good at forcing turnovers.”

His relationships with Tank Tyler:

“Tank was a year ahead of me (at E.E. Smith High School in Fayetteville, North Carolina.) We had a very interesting team. We had some big guys including Tank. Those are the glorious days for me. We really took it to some teams on the defense. We prided ourselves on hitting hard, getting 11hats on the football. That’s just been my mentality since playing with Tank.”

Does he consider himself a safe pick?

“I believe a safe pick means I can come in instantly and make an impact on anybody’s defense and my versatility as a linebacker to be able to play in the 3-4, inside, or outside, or 4-3, inside or outside, you just can’t go wrong.

“I can play the Sam, Mike and Will in 4-3. Coach (Brad) Lambert at Wake Forest did a great job of preparing me to play any position. He never allowed any of our linebackers to focus on any one position. We had to play them all.

“At Wake Forest I was used a majority of the time in the 9-technique. We played a 4-3 under and I would play on top of the tight end most of the time unless we had a different scheme for that week, but most of the time I was just an outside linebacker, a Sam.”

On his story coming out of high school:

“It’s been an uphill climb, a battle that I was willing to take on. Coming out of high school, I was lightly recruited … East Carolina, Wake Forest, Division 1-AAs and Division 2’s. Everybody began to doubt whether I could really fulfill my dreams of playing in the NFL, and all the doubters are really what motivates in the weight room when you’ve got your last set coming up and somebody’s telling you to get it done. You have to get it done because there are some people out there that believe you can’t get it done. Just to prove people wrong and to be able to stand up here today and to be able to speak as the nation’s best linebacker is a great feeling.

What does he want teams to learn about him at the Combine:

“I want them to know that my personality and my character is contagious. I’m a hard-worker on and off the field. I love the game of football and the environments I’ve been in. When Aaron Curry steps in the weight room, he’s serious. He’s working hard and he’s going to go until the whistle blows. You’re going to have to drag Aaron Curry out of the weight room. You’re going to have to drag Aaron Curry off the practice field, out of the film room. You’re going to have to tell Curry to chill out on some charities and community service because you’ve got practice today. That’s just the type of person I am. I have some dreams of doing some special things as an NFL player, to take advantage of being an NFL player and do some charity things.”

Texas defensive end Brian Orakpo

What defensive scheme fits you best, 4-3 or 3-4?

“The good thing about is I’m versatile. So it really doesn’t matter. I fit wel l in both schemes. I played this last season and I’m very effective in both, so we’ll see. It’s very important because a lot of teams are going to a 3-4 scheme and you still have the teams that are 4-3. A versatile guy is a guy who can be very versatile and can play any position.”

What’s your favorite position in a perfect world?

“In a perfect world, I just want to rush the passer, first through fourth down if it was a perfect world. Any position where I can be effective doing what I naturally do best and that’s getting after the passer and affecting him. It’s not all about the sacks, it’s all about pressure.”

The feeling that comes with getting a sack:

“The thrill is getting off the ball, beating that tackle and getting there. The quarterback barely gets hit anyway. You have to put a lot of pressure on the guy.”

The Chiefs had 10 sacks last year. What could you bring to a team that set a record for fewest sacks?

“I would (bring a lot) to a team that needs a pass rusher and a guy that’s not shy stopping the run, either. Normally pass rushers get knocked for really not caring about the run, but I take a lot of pride in playing the run as well.”

End or linebacker, are you more effective hand in the dirt or standing up?

“I’m just as effective as both hand in the dirt or standing up. It really doesn’t matter. And I’ve proved it on film and I can always get better.”

“That’s the plan. I’m a defensive lineman first and foremost and then I think we’re going to split up the hybrid type guys. Me, Aaron Maybin, Everette Brown we’re going to do some linebacker drills as well.”

Is there a guy in the NFL that you watched a lot”

“One guy I really admire and watch is Osi Umenyiora with the Giants. He was a guy who inspired me to get back to the four-point stance that I used last year because he has the same type physique I have and I learned a lot from watching his film. Every player has weaknesses. If they’re telling you you’re perfect, they’re lying. Sometimes (I) don’t use my speed and power as an advantage all the time. Sometimes I catch myself on film getting away from technique because I’m trying to power and speed guy a little too much. It’s something I can work on.”
