So what would have been different if they were picked in the second round? They're still shitty QB's no matter where they're picked.

Well I guess that's the point. You don't pick a QB just to say you did.

Reid/Dorsey didn't have anything to do with those picks.

People are holding a grudge against Dorsey/Reid that occurred under other GM/HC's

Hindsight is 20/20. I didn't see anyone on CP clamoring for any of those guys. **** we were ELATED when we got DJ.

Yet there is constant talk of how GMs need to listen to CP. difference is hindsight.

Neither of them are the best football player available. If you take either, you're taking them for what they could be, not what they are.

Yeah, no shit.


We've sat thru 30 years of that mantra though. You also don't trade for a back up Qb just to do it.

I agree, though I bet a team like Jacksonville very well could have Dion Jordan at the top of their board.

How is anyone holding a grudge against them when the draft hasn't even happened yet?

Reid and Dorsey were brought in to improve the team and give us a chance to win a championship...I find it hard to believe there isn't a single qb prospect in this whole draft that's better than Alex Smith


Oh, good.

The "they work in the NFL so we should cut them some slack" defense. These guys are paid to be the best at what they do...passing on every college quarterback and trading for a vet is ok...so long as it works out to be the best choice.

If Alex Smith is unable to get this team to the next level and a college quarterback gets another team there...then what?
Are we supposed to give them a mulligan with the first pick?

The people saying Geno Smith is the best player available are the desperate, stupid fans who want him simply because he's a QB.

Only if Geno Smith actually turns into a franchise QB.


Potential will get you fired .......

The biggest difference is that Andy Reid is not a guy who's going to settle for shit like King Carl and *****.

If Alex Smith struggles like he did pre-2011, than he WILL be replaced.
