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.

If you read Don Banks this morning...Sanchez lovers will have a fit. He said he almost guarantees the Lions do NOT take a QB with their #1 overall pick...rather one of the top OT's. That means St Louis will probably take the other OT...leaving us drafting Stafford, Curry, or Sanchez...IMO. If Stafford is passed on by the Lions...he's going to us rather than Sanchez.

Each game was like an Indian vision quest for Sanchez, but instead of having to deal with wolves and bears and small pox infested blankets he had to deal with a bad OL, reeruned WRs, no running game and a crazy emotional head coach. It's a wonder the kid didn't break.

Awesome. What I like the most about this thread is hearing fans trash their own teams. I wish I was a Georgia fan, so I could really join in.

"Stafford often played with 10 year olds on his offensive line and his wide receivers are both missing an arm and a leg. Not to mention the overrated running back who is really quite awful and will be proven as a complete fraud in the NFL. Go BULLDOGS though..."

Of course they will. Because most of the people hoping that the Chiefs select Sanchez are so myopic in their analysis of the relative value of the quarterback position that there is no way that these same people could understand the positive qualities of Stafford and his allure to a franchise.

No way.

Those ****ing dumbshits, who when discussing the upside (note this word, those who like to misconstrue posts) of Stafford and Sanchez have been comparing the two to Elway and Aikman, will certainly shit themselves.

Excuse me while I go wipe. ****.

Yeah, I don't think I've seen too many people say they want Sanchez and only Sanchez. Most are merely making an argument for Sanchez since it was believed that Matthew would be off the board. Thats been my take at least.

Stafford is my top choice, and would JIMP if we able to land him, but would also be thrilled to have Sanchez.

Frankly, the more I learn about the guy... I am beginning to think he is a head case.

I initially liked the idea that he was going to throw at the combine.

Now, I think he may be a little too arrogant.

I am sure you know about his arrest, I think in his redshirt Sophomore year because the girl said no and he wasn't hearing it. He got Kobe'd, she figured she could get some money out of him if this is the case.

Now, he has one good year in college and Pete Carroll tells him he should stay in school and he's not hearing it. He's not hearing it because everyone else is saying your going to go very high. Just because Carroll said to stay doesn't mean anything. He could have stayed and gotten insurance like lionheart but why? He's going high first round and can learn in the NFL

Just have to wonder if he thinks he knows better than everyone else, and has this self titled attitude. Pretty sure he's doing whats best for him and his family, you don't know whats best for them.

Don't need that on this team. Would love his attitude and leadership on our team. It's not like everyone is saying he's a prick like Leaf.

I was really hoping to find out more about him and get sold on him.... nothing so far. I'm sold on him being the 2nd best QB and if Matthew is off the board, I'd love to have him as a member of the KC Chiefs.

Oh, by the way, his 'family' told him to stay in school. So, no, he isn't doing what is best for him and his family.

Also, how is the girl going to get any money out of him when he is a backup in his Sophomore year?

Wow, there is nothing not to like about the guy in your eyes. No reason for concern whatsoever.

[smittysbar]

YOU don't have a ****ing clue what is best for him and his family.

I think this is right on. They just want any QB they can justify taking at #3.

Well, I expect that his family knows, and they told him to stay in school.

Only him and him alone knows whats best for him

It does to me, and those are the specific reasons why I like Sanchez over the other quarterbacks. I also like his family background. They are very strong and supportive, and all show good intelligence and character. Personally, I don't think that his lack of experience means much, especially when almost everyone to a man thinks that he should sit and learn for at least a year, if not two before he even sees long term NFL action.

Gresham would have been the best receiver in this draft if he came out. Guy is a freak. Personally, I'd love to see the Chiefs look seriously at him next year. And their offensive line, especially in college, was utterly dominant.

That is about as dumb of a position as I have ever seen. The guy is 22 years old, he doesn't even know what's best for him. He has had several people try to tell him. Like his father, coach Palmer and of course Pete Carroll.

Oh, and Mecca didn't just say what was best for Sanchez, but Sanchez and his family. His family is fine and wanted him to go back to school because they want the best for him.

When my 7 year old daughter wants to eat all of her Halloween candy in one sitting, she THINKS it is what is best for her. Being older and wiser, I don't allow it.

Now, Sanchez 'thinks' this is what is best for him. And, he isn't listening to anyone tell him differently.

The more I read about him, the happier I will be when the Chiefs don't take him.

I'd be cool with either one. Most would prefer Stafford. I would prefer Sanchez, mostly because of the way scouts have raved about his intangibles, passion, leadership, as well as physical tools. Combine that with Carrol's comments that he'd be the #1 overall pick next year if he stayed, and he's got more talent than Palmer? That's the guy I REALLY want.

But Stafford seems like a legit prospect too, by most accounts even better.

Hell, I would be cool with Cassell as long as we don't give up a high price for him. I don't think that would be the better choice, but if that's how Pioli & Haley thought would be best after their evaluations, then I'll be ok with it.

I just want a franchise QB. Period.

You just want a quarterback, dude. Positional value. Talent be damned.

Stafford and Sanchez aren't worthy of the #3 overall selection. If they're available in the 3rd round, which is what the advisory committee evaluated them at, then it might be safer, and I'd be happier about the pick.

Stafford, Sanchez, Leaf, Freeman, George, Davis. All the same guys.
