this is a misconception that many fans have. Just because one guy was a backup behind someone that is great, doesn't mean that guy will pick up his game and imitate him.

Most players will tell you that you have to be your own guy. Rodgers will tell you that Favre didn't help him do shit. If he had a question or wanted to talk about certain things they would, because they're teammates, but the "mentor" card gets played waaaaaay too often.

Chase Daniel was around Drew Brees every single day for four years. Whether or not there's intentional mentoring, Daniel, as a undrafted free agent, learned how to prepare from one of the best QB's in the game and from some of the best (if not THE best in Payton) coaches in the game.

And Matt Cassel was tutored by Carson Palmer AND Tom Brady, so what?

I'd have a bigger issue if Chase Daniel was signed to start.

He wasn't.

If Daniel can come off the bench occasionally and win some games, like Feeley, Garcia, etc., it'll have been a great move.

Hopefully, he never sees the field.

The problem isnt he wasnt signed to start, it's that he's signed to be a 'project' guy who is a backup and therefore reason enough not to draft a legit prospect QB in the next 3 years.

Sorry, I don't buy that, at all.

You're projecting.

In relation to your feelings about Dorsey, then why trade for Alex Smith when you could get the same type of player, for all intents and purposes, in a Matt Moore or David Garrard?

Matt Moore wasn't available and David Garrard hasn't played in the NFL since 2010 and is 34 years old.

You know, the league year just started today and there's seven weeks until the draft. I think there's a very good chance that the Chiefs trade out of #1, pick up additional choices this year and next, which will "ease the pain" of the people that feel like the #34 was too much to give up for Alex Smith.

Plus, if he actually wins something, all will be quickly forgotten.

David Garrard just signed on as the back up to mark sanchez.

Matt Moore just reupped to back up with the phins.

The draft class is super weak at qb, the free agent qb class is weak as hell.

There are at least 5 teams that need to upgrade at qb, and none thought those two were worth shit.

Im not sure if its more people underrating alex smith, or overrating these scrub ass qbs.......

You're overrating the 'project' guy.

I'm getting this quote wrong but it's something to the effect that 90 or so quarterbacks have been selected in the 3rd round or later in the last 10 years and only Russell Wilson is starting for the team that drafted him.

Awesome. Get to see a backwards hat wearing douchebag eat his boogers on the sideline. And if he ever does get in game watch him put everything he's got into a 5 yard out and swing pass Charles into early retirement.

Ohh, and lets hope Tebow doesn't come to KC just to avoid Daniel trying to kiss on him.

I gurantee you by week ten that boy WILL be seeing the field, and in HIS case; I'll actually cheer for the Chiefs Quarterback.( picks up his dice ) Come on sweet concussion; daddy needs a new QB!
And remember; I was behind this move from the get-go, pointing out that Daniel was better than any option on the roster, ****-O included!
