Chiefs | Looking to trade No. 1 pick?

The Kansas City Chiefs are seeking to move out from the No. 1 overall spot in the NFL Draft regardless if they acquire a quarterback via trade, according to multiple league executives.

Just heard B Albert on the radio. He wants to be a chief and doesnt make since to replace him with a guy whos not better than him plus he said he would love to see stephenson step up. Him and Allen just need to get smarter upstairs. He will not move to guard. Right now he honestly doesnt know if he will be back or not. He understands the regime has other things to focus on. Also he said he would take less money to be here. Its not about the money for him its about being the best left tackle in the NFL.

Of course we are.

WHY THE **** WOULDN'T WE

IT'S NOT LIKE WE NEED ELITE LEVEL TALENT

DRAFTING AT NUMBER 1 IS TOO EASY ANYWAY

LET'S MAKE THIS A CHALLENGE

**** **** PISS SHIT bundle of sticks ****

:facepalm: Jesus ****ing christ, will you PLEASE shut the **** up about Brandon Albert?

LMAO Dude, relax . Reid and Dorsey will do the right thing. They know we need a QB. See my sig.:p

Q x 10000

some men just want to watch the world burn

I think its been the feeling but I hadn't seen it actually reported. Maybe I'm wrong and if I am please accept my sincere apologies.

Bitch

[QUOTE=AussieChiefsFan;9438377]LMAO It's a lost art in this country. Oh yeah and by the way it's our native language. Every time I post something on craigslist I get this "is it steel available" or some other ****ing BS

Give me a break

Agreed. **** that guy

Yes he will, everbody thinks he sucks except me.

In this draft, trading down is a great idea.

The 1st pick has as much value as the 20th pick. There is no standout player this year.

B Albert wants to be a chief.

Things are slow right now on contract talks but he kniws the regime has more things to focus on.

Doesnt care about the money. He only cares about being the best LT in the NFL.

that's enough of that racist crap !

This means nothing. Geno WILL be a KC Chief.

Well I guess that makes two of us then.....

Wanting to trade down is one thing. Finding a willing partner is another. It doesn't mean a deal will happen even if they want it to. I don't think many teams will be willing to trade up in this particular draft. The Chiefs probably aren't too keen on moving down too far, and I doubt a team in the 5-10 range would be willing to deal a high 2nd round pick to take a player in the top of this draft.

Teddy Bridgewater could be a very good player next year. I was looking at him for the Eagles because Vick probably won't be here past 2013.

So if we stay at 1 we should just take Geno then right? Cause he's worth the 20th pick.

Well, Mr Bigglestein, it only takes one team with a Hardon for one player to find us a partner and there are at least 3 teams in the 5-10 range that could fit that bill.

Again English?

B Albert will be a chief next year. Just a matter of time.

somebody somewhere is laughing their ass off at how gullible we're all being.

Depends entirely on what Dorsey and Reid think of him. We're gonna find out fairly soon. If we trade for Alex Smith, then that says they don't believe in him or Barkley.

sigh

Breathe. Let's all save our meltdowns for draft day so that we can end it "Alien Cult" style.

Since his spelling and grammar sucks, it makes sense to ignore his posts.

if they trade down passed Philly you can kiss Geno goodbye

Sigh.

That would be great.

What the hell?

I would be surprised to see anyone trade up to get the Raiders' 3rd overall pick in this draft, let alone the Chiefs' 1st.

Yeah, who needs a Ferrari when you can drive a Focus. **** this miserable franchise.

Walter has him going all the way in the 3rd.

I've read he lost a lot of stock at the combine.

The thing is, I don't trust anything coming from the same people who say we should draft an OL over Geno Smith, or trade for Alex Smith.

son
of
a
bitch

I agree, but the key here to trading down is IF the Chiefs really do not want Geno and his stock really rises in the next month and a half and there are 2 teams that really do want him(which I think is very realistic when you see who is drafting just behind us....Jags,Raiders,Cardinals etc...)that are in the 5-15 range I could see several teams willing to come up. The downside of this whole scenario is that we don't get Geno.

If you are willing to trade from #1 to the #15 range, you better absolutely get a haul. I'm talking like 6 day1,2 picks.

A trade down, if it comes, will come from a team in the top 10.

If they trade down past Philly, they obviously don't WANT Geno.

LOL

On the other hand, they might trade down WITH Philly just BECAUSE they might want Geno.

LOL, so now Geno is a Ferrari.

The legend of Geno Smith is taking Biblical proportions even before he throws an NFL pass. Rich Scanlon's legend is about to get surpassed.

This is why I wish Clowny was in this draft.

Maybe JAX would trade up a spot? Otherwise we'd be reeruned to trade down...

Join the club.

If CLowney was in the draft, I'd say **** all you about trading up, Im taking him.

Only in the eye of the Geno-or-bust group.

He's not a position of need, and we could have made a killing in current and future draft picks trading down.

In the last 30 years, going back to the 1983 draft, the #1 pick has been traded:

1983 Bitchass Elway cries his way out of Indy. Obviously Indy lost big time.

1984 Pats traded 2 first rounders to get the #1 pick. Selected Irving Fryer. Bengals got Pete Koch and Brian Blados. Cincy loses.

2001 Chargers traded #1 pick to Falcons for Vick. Got LT and Brees. Didn't win shit. Falcons made the NFC title game, then Vick went to jail. Chargers lost.

2004 Chargers traded Eli for a shitload of pro-bowlers. Lost big time.

The point is when a team trades out of the top slot you get your ass handed to you. ALWAYS. There's a reason it doesn't happen very often.

But true fans like Frankie can convince themselves otherwise....

If Clowney was in this draft so would Teddy Bridewater and Johnny Football.

But we don't draft for need, we draft for BPA. :LOL:

We aren't trading the pick, it won't happen the only way someone wants the pick is if Geno lights it up on his pro-day then it won't matter cause we will take him. With a deep draft like this one nobody is giving up picks unless they are blown away by a player and their is nobody close, in this draft all positions are fairly close but QB

The Chiefs would love to trade down.

This is probably the worst year in a long time to have the #1 overall pick. The team will make the pick and just look around the room at each other and shrug their shoulders like eh? What else were we gonna do? And the LT will bust and be released just like Jake Long is gonna be after 4 years.

Here is my Opinion. Reid would take Geno if it were his call. Dorsey/Clark won't let him.

And that makes zero sense. ***** had Brady and Dorsey had Rogers. You would think these two guys would value the QB position as being the top priority fod sure but neither of them seem to. Just throw anyone out there BS.

...or they judge that the underwhelming QB crop this year contains no Brady or RoDgers

told ya theyre looking to trade down

geno is not worth a 1st overall pick

Wrong.

Teams that trade out of the top spot get RAPED.

It's a stupid ****ing premise, period.

Just give them a chance! They're not Scott Pioli.

Well guess what? YES THEY ARE. ROFL

Beat me to it.

Teams that trade out of #1 get reamed.

Sounds like the PERFECT plan for the ****ing Chiefs.

I'm not sure I can even give them until the draft if they're this ****ing stupid.

ROFL

I can't believe how many people believe everything they hear this time of year. It's 2 months until the draft takes place and people are going bonkers over every brokedick article that gets printed. Team personnel aren't going to tell us their draft plans even if they actually know what they're going to do themselves. Do you really think that Andy Reid spent 9 hours negotiating with Clark Hunt so he could play second fiddle to a rookie GM. Reid drafted McNabb and almost reached the pinnacle with him so it stands to reason that he will again choose a gifted quarterback to lead us to the promised land. Reid is driving this train and he doesn't want some mediocre castoff that he didn't draft and groom. Like Bill Parcells said "If I'm cooking the dinner then I want to shop for the ingredients". We're already light years ahead of where we were last year so sit back, relax, and enjoy the show!

Not really disagreeing with your overall point. just saying on this example, come on man. You're being a little disingenuous.

So the Chargers "didn't win shit" as in didn't win the SB. Lets not pretend like they would have with Vick.

They passed on an exciting but overrated, disappointing career QB and got a HOF RB and a great QB they either let go before his prime or couldn't figure out the magic formula (that Sean Payton did). But the point stands that they drafted another future HOF player with that next pick.

Just saying this is a bad example IMO for what you're tryinig to say. That trade was a home run for the Chargers.

Conflicting Positions:

1. Many say we must take Geno #1. He may not be RGIII, but we are in bad need of a QB and Geno has many of the tools you look for in a QB. So me must take Geno. I think it is a valid position.

2. Then many of the same people step and say there is no way we can find a trading partner. Well if argument #1 is true, then it seem Buffalo, Jags, Jets, and Cardinals would all be interested in moving up to get Geno. You also have Joekel, many teams would love to have a LT to plug in for the next decade.

If the Chiefs believe Geno is not the answer and get Smith or Foles, trading down is a real possiblity. It may have to be a little bit of discount compared to other years, but I don't see a situation where there is no trading partners.

You really think that? Reid will get who ever he wants.

The Falcons made it further than the Chargers ever did yes? Brees didn't win until he left for New Orleans.

The Falcons won this trade, even though it's the closest to even of all of them in the last 30 years.

What ever team that drafts Geno Smith with our #1 pick from trade is going be my favorite team.

So so the mark now is just playoff wins? Okay.

The Chargers got to the AFC Championship game. Had several playoff runs. LT was a part of all that.

Michael Vick's crowning achievement was winning a playoff game in GB.

No matter how you shake it, the trade was effectively Michael Vick for two HOF players.

Your original point is still valid. You could still say it doesn't work out for that team with the #1 pick 90+% of the time. And that would be true. But this is not one of them. Just isn't.

Brees didn't become a HOF player until he left. And that AFC title game came with Rivers at QB. Do you remember when the Falcons had the #1 pick again in 2004?

Right Brees became that later. But they still got that quality HOF player in the draft from that trade. We're talking about the draft trade. You're talking about the lack of coaching/system, whatever it was as to why it took him so long. Two different things.

And yes they got those playoffs runs when Rivers was there. So what? It's not like LT was a backup at that point. He was still a main cog of that offense.

LT alone has turned out to be better than Vick. Then you add Brees on top of that? Throw in the towl man. This one is a slam dunk.

If an irrelevant franchise could mess up the draft, it would be the Chiefs...

You dont become the Chiefs by doing the right thing.

You become the Chiefs by pushing for 9-7 and not screwing up the tailgating experience.

Trading the #1 pick tells you all you need to know about your failing franchise.

:bravo:

And dont come back with some value bullshit. Value does not win championships. Value is for quiters.

QBs win championships, 5 tech DL do not.

I think it's more likely we steal someone's #1 from next year for a swap of #2's and I would personally be for just such a move.

Well said.

If we let Albert walk for Joeckel or another LT it will be the clearest indication yet that this organization makes moves based first and foremost on money. That conclusion is, of course,rescinded if we address a meaningful need that makes the team better with the "Albert dollars," but I wouldn't count on it.

There's always next year!

There's only 1 glaring need on this team and it's perfectly addressed with the #1 pick.

Anything other than that is unacceptable.

Dorsey has been successful
Reid has been successful

These are not the same Chiefs management of past years. They will do the right thing.

Prove it.
