Scott Piolli's Top 10 Underclassmen (https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=269399)

He was SPECIFICALLY asked about underclassmen. Blame the guy asking the question.

There is nothing in Alex Smith game to suggest Andy Reid wanting to bring him here. It would be ****ing bull shit if he did.

Yes and no.

Alex Smith is a very accurate and fairly mobile QB. No, he's not a downfield bomber, but if you're working sideline routes, he's an extremely smart, efficient, accurate passer.

Smith is a very very good fit for a true WCO. Reid runs a more vertical version of it, so he'd probably want someone with a little more downfield arm than Smith if he had his druthers.

That said, if he doesn't like the tape on any of the QBs and with no better options available in FA, Smith could be a guy that Reid likes and he'd simply have to tailor his offense to fit Smith's skill-set. Hell, he'll probably have to tailor it anyway, he doesn't have a true deep-threat on the roster.

I actually think Reid could like Smith and I think Smith could do well here.

Actually, yes it is.

Reid's offenses rank in the top 5 for 20+ attempts nearly every year.

Thank God that cancer is gone.

It contains a RUNNING BACK.

Running backs are NEVER worth a top 10 pick. NEVER.

Unless you are Cleveland.

Btw guys there is probably a strong possibility Joeckel is at the top for Dorsey also.

Based on what?

There's a reason that they're in the conversation with the Chiefs as the worst team of the last 2 decades.

Fat Scott has started his comeback tour in full force.

He is scheduled to be on Dan Patrick's radio show tomorrow which means he is probably making the media rounds during Super Bowl week.

Hopefully someone in the media will ask him about what went down in KC (namely the Arrowhead Anxiety article he has refused to comment on).

I would imagine if Scott left under mutual agreement, he's not allowed to talk about his time with the Chiefs in much detail, if at all.

Not disagreeing, just making a point.

Historically both Dorsey (GB) and Reid love addressing the lines early.

No, they don't.

Defensive line, yes.

Offensive line, absolutely not.

Same here. ;)

What do most suppose draft boards have Joeckel going? Who is to say Dorsey is any different than them or Pioli?

Make no mistake, that was Pioli's list regardless of underclassman status.

Scooter was totally going to reach for a DE/DT again lol
