Why do people say you just don't draft a RT at 1.1 ? Money
Money is not an issue with the new rookie salary cap. Is it because they aren't protecting blind side. I'd like to see stats on sacks from each side of the line. I see far too many stunts and sacks coming from the RT side. I say RT is just as important as LT. And we are now set ! |

Not commenting to you persay because you point was zeroed in, and accurate. There is nothing wrong with having a dominant oline, and just because its not the sexy pick, or the norm, doesnt mean it was the wrong pick. |
Quote:
Good o-lines really don't make average QB's better. QB's are defined by their play, good or bad. |

And in order No and No |
I honestly can't tell you who I would have preferred us to draft at #1. Every single position, every player at the top of his position, had big time question marks. It's easy to just complain that we took a redundant tackle. What's not easy is definitively pointing to ONE player and saying "This guy! This guy right here was worth first overall."
Not the field... just one player. Milliner? Jordan? Lotuleilei? Werner? Who? Face it, we got ****ing hosed. We're Chiefs fans... OF COURSE there were no good first overall draft picks. |
I vote we forget Damon Huard and never mention him again.

:( of course in a few years some player will turn out to be a stud, but on paper we were screwed. |

I agree with the people who say right tackle is almost as important, mainly because our best player is a running back. If we get a franchise QB then LT becomes a lot more important. But given the Chiefs I'm not holding my breath on that.
I am pretty excited to see what Charles does this year if our oline stays intact. |

@SiriusXMNFL: Andy Reid on #BrandenAlbert: He is a hard worker and a proven Left Tackle...if he was here today he would be the LT. #SXMSports #Chiefs

Bryant McKinnie, Matt Light, Chad Clifton, Trai Essex, Jermaine Bushrod, etc... basically a collection of worn-down vets on their last legs, backups pushed into the starting role, and prospects who hadn't panned out yet. Yet they didn't stop their teams from at least getting to, and possibly winning, the Super Bowl, because those teams had legit quarterbacks and were stacked with talent at the skill positions. |

It seems to me that "below average" for a QB is synonymous with "absolutely terrible." "Above average" is synonymous with "franchise QB." Average is basically one or two guys that could break out but haven't. A la Matt Ryan or Sam Bradford. |

I love Trent as much as anyone, but he had the best OL this team has ever seen in front of him and the best RB at his side. Not to mention that was when Tony was in his prime. You CAN'T argue that he would have looked anywhere near as good as he did if he had the OL not been as good as it was. |
Quote:
Also the way that Miami structured his contract, he would have been seeing far less in guaranteed $$$ as it was filled with incentives and clauses. Ireland then had the nerve to trade his 1st 2nd (#42) and they've yet to solidify a real guy at the LT spot. Even though its not even the same guys in the front office, there's been some acrimony between the Dolphins and Chiefs and specifically about compensation and trade deals for a # of years. Just not a lot of professionalism on display and Ireland isn't known around the league in the most positive light - or at least tends to mistake where that line between shrewd business negotiator and dull-witted **** lies. |

Trent Green was able to take advantage of superior protection to post league-leading passing numbers.
Alex Smith takes advantage of superior protection to...get sacked a lot...and dink and dunk. Stop comparing the two. Thanks. |

He did a interview with 810 sports on Outside The Lines. Just listening to him you know he loves his job. Said we could have 2 FBs on this roster and Baldwin could be used more in the slot. |

2000 yards 16 TDs and 5 INTS in 6 starts in STL. Both very good numbers. Both numbers Alex Smith has never put up. Posted via Mobile Device |

One also gets the feeling that Dorsey and his family are a much better match for KC than "east coast Pioli" ever appeared to be. Dorsey puts off the vibe that he loves being here. Pretty cool. |

during the 13-3 vermeil year we had good offensive coaching/scheme Great Oline play Good Running backs These things allowed Green to be comfortable and maximize his abilities. Have to have the same this year for Alex Smith It's what you need with a game manager type QB |

it's a total lol situation they could have said Biscuit McBiscuitserson as our pick and those guys would have reacted the exact same way |
being the rational adult that I am
I said Alex Smith lies somewhere between Trent Dilfer and Trent Green. Dilfer being his floor, Green being his ceiling. the kicking and screaming over this is ridiculous now...CLEARLY, there were no QB's to take in this year's draft that would have been an immediate improvement over Matt Cassel. I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't have a single QB on their draft board... so it's who cares now? Reid is paid to ****ing win. Dorsey is paid to ****ing win. They gave a few picks for the best available QB (key word: available). I realize CP doesn't understand the draft, at all...(not one bit)... so again (and I have never received a rebuttal to this point)... please go over the past 10 years of drafts and research picks 30-45 and then report back on how often you find a pro bowl caliber player with those picks please use percentages because people are acting like these two 2nds for Smith was like trading 2 all-pros for the damn guy when in reality AT THE VERY WORST we traded Brandon Flowers and say Dexter McCluster for Alex Smith. |
and I'm pretty sure if Alex Smith is a failure this year...Dorsey and Reid will try and find another QB. I'm pretty sure Andy ****ing Reid addresses the QB position.

When? |
Even if you believe that drafting a "great" player in the second is a statistical long shot, the bigger problem is that teams still (and rightfully so) highly value the picks.
Thus, paying two second-round picks for Smith shows, from my perspective, a commitment. Even if he plays at a mediocre level, I don't see the Chiefs essentially flushing this investment. Rather, they'll throw more resources at the situation, thus further exasperating the problem. |

The fact that we have a HC and GM that get along is so refreshing. Pioli turned the Chiefs into a reality show. I'm happy to have Dorsey and Reid here.
