Chiefs listing McCluster as a WR

Just reported on 810

He doesn't look any slower than Charles to me.

The Arenas pick was the one that really pissed me off. There were way too many better options than Mighty Mouse II.

Well you certainly could have done better with the Arenas pick. Arenas was a guy that I feared everytime we played BAMA. However, paying a scholarship to have a guy like Arenas on your team and paying him 2nd round money to have him on your team are different things.

We traded up for a tight end. Again.

And that would be okay if you didn't have the first team Walter Camp tight end or the first team AP All-American tight end still on the board and it looked like both would have been there when the Chiefs picked in the fourth. But, instead, we decide to throw away one of our very valuable fifth round picks to draft a guy who has never played a full season in college because of injuries and concussions.

Bad ****ing pick.

Bullshit.

The Chiefs don't have the luxury of taking an OLB with medical issues that may or may not play in 2010. That was the reason he dropped.

The Chiefs don't have the luxury of Ngata on the line that they could take a ****ing out of shape fatass with questionable motives.

Don't go there bro. Charles is our man. Charles is faster.

But look at all those games we would have won last year had we had a KR?

Seriously, only this fanbase could possbily think that a slot WR, TE and a KR carries more value than a pass rusher, NT or ILB in a 34 scheme.

Bad ****ing pick.

And that was the other one that really pissed me off. As if he wouldn't have been sitting there at our 4th round pick. There were 2-3 higher rated TE's than him on the board. Why did we trade up for him? WTF?

Mostly though it reads like "I wanted playmakers, damnit, but not these playmakers".

As far as sumbitting to authority, I think you'll probably hear somebody argue that the converse is true and that the drafturbators are sticking to their normal MO of criticizing the front office regardless of what they do.

Everything only sounds like what you're describing it as if you can't read particularly well. Point of dispute: when we say need at 36 we're also talking about BPA at the same time - win/win, McCluster wasn't BPA at the time and Arenas was like a two round reach, no one would argue against an LT at #5 in any draft unless your team already has one - like the Chiefs - so there goes that mischaracterization, I know that I'll hear someone attempt to argue that some of us bitch about every single move the front office makes but I don't care because that is so stupid as to not warrant getting indignant over.

The McCluster pick did it for me. By the time they picked Arenas I was already in "whatever" mode.

I like the picks more in retrospect, now that I've done some research on them.

Still not who I'd have picked, but I've never had a vote in the warroom.

5'9 200 isn't 5'7 160

Good luck getting an actual response to this.

And that's why everybody treats you guys the way they do.

So which pass rusher or ILB would you have taken?

That was the only one people are bitching about that actually annoyed me. Good player but seems like a luxury. If he has potential as a CB2 then I really like it.
