Poilian says no QB worthy of #1. Chiefs can find one later
![]() Former Colts GM Polian says Chiefs can find a QB in the draft — In Bill Polian’s long career as an NFL general manager, his team had the number-one pick in the draft just once. That was in 1998, when he was with Indianapolis, and the Colts that year selected a quarterback, Peyton Manning. That worked out well for Polian and the Colts. But Polian said he doesn’t think the Chiefs should draft a quarterback with this year’s first pick, even though they would like an upgrade over Matt Cassel. Like many assessing this year’s draft, Polian said there’s not a quarterback worthy of being the number-one selection. “Just because there’s not a quarterback that everybody now doesn’t think is worth the number-one pick doesn’t mean you can’t get a quarterback,” Polian said. “Nobody thought Russell Wilson was worth a third-round pick except a couple of us. He turned out to be a pretty good quarterback. “You always go for the best player. It’s foolish to go for need and (Chiefs coach Andy Reid) won’t do that.” While Reid coached in Philadelphia, the Eagles at least a couple of times found quarterbacks after the first round who eventually became starters, including Kevin Kolb and Nick Foles. “Nobody develops quarterbacks better than Andy Reid,” Polian said. “So rest assured, you’ve got the right guy. Whatever decision he makes will be the right one. He’ll find a quarterback. It doesn’t need to be the first guy in the draft.” Other than to stay away from quarterbacks, Polian had no advice for the Chiefs with the first pick. “Ask Andy,” he said. “They know their personnel far better than I do and they know what they need.” http://www.kansascity.com/2013/02/21...-colts-gm.html |

Pioli was gonna let Bowe AND Albert walk, draft Joeckel and start Cassel again...maybe taking a qb in round 3 or 4. It's clear as day that that is why Reid decided to have Clark fire him and bring in Dorsey. I am at the point that I'm thinking about making a prop bet that we take Geno. |

he was pretty definitive about it.
He basically implied that Smith was a project type guy who could eventually become a decent NFL player ie nothing great. at least that's the way i heard his comments

Part of me wonders if Cassel and Jackson sent Pioli a commission/finders fee check

I swear it seems like all these A-holes have been hanging out practicing this spiel together. I guess that way when Geno Smith goes 1st overall they can make a big presentation about it. 'What a draft day shocker!'

No, if it were any other team picking 1st, then a qb would be on the list.
