I just really can't get behind that rationale. It's absurd frankly. The failures of 2 previous GMs (one of which who said he never wanted to draft a QB and would always go with the veteran, and another who thought he could catch lighting in a bottle twice with low round QBs) are being lumped in with guys who have drafted QBs high and had success doing it.

To say they'd want an Andrew Luck here just to trade the pick is complete hyperbole.

Andy Reid/Dorsey have been Chiefs for 4 months. The trade for Alex Smith was more of a reflection on what they thought about this QB class more than anything. If they were all in on him, they'd have given him an extension much like ***** did without merit.
Battered Fan Syndrome. Too many fans have been abused for so long that they fall into the trap of thinking every person involved with the Chiefs is going to abuse them even if they are brand new and there is no reason to think that way. It's irrational but completely understandable.

I agree with the bolded part but not the italics.

You can use your brain and figure out that Dorsey and Reid have nothing to do with the last 30 years.

This, this, and this.

Been down this road so many times with this team that it's really tough for me to get excited about next season or any real sustained sucess with this team past the next 2 years.

How many more times does this team expect fans to see yet another vet QB be adequate, win anywhere between 9 & 11 games, go to the playoffs and lose in the first round? Am I supposed to be excited about this prospect and clap like a seal for a fish?

ALL RIGHT!! A RT TAKEN FIRST OVERALL!!! Trade away a 2nd round pick that is essentially a 1st round pick given the talent in this years draft? COOL!!!

Seriously, this is a team and franchise only George Allen could love.
