I guess I just expect more from the first overall pick of the draft.

Ouch. That's no good.

LTs don't cost you games nor do they win you games. And that's why you don't draft one #1 overall.

Im with you.

I'm going to look like a genius for being the one to start the official Joeckel thread :). Maybe we can get Luke to join CP?

He's a prospect some have said would be a mid to late first rounder in a "normal"" draft.

I agree, but first year players struggle, even number 1 picks.

If you want to go with this mentality, fine. That then means Reid is drafting a LT he thinks does fit his scheme and should be better, right?

I'm just saying top 10 is relevent to the scheme. If he can't play the scheme, he won't be top 10. Maybe Reid thinks Albert can't do it.

Even Luck had a shitty overrated season.

Only the Chiefs would choose to create a hole on the roster that doesn't exist, then use the most valuable pick in franchise history to fill said hole.

Struggle? Sure.


"just don't be a liability and be ok etc" No.


We could get that out of Stephenson.

I wish this draft had a Trezelle Jenkins. We'd be set.

You should. The 1st pick in the draft has to be an immediate starter and make an impact. That is the way it is in the new NFL.
