Unfortunately we had Belcher who was not a boy scout. This team has never been a bunch of choir boys. Except maybe at QB, which is fine because most of the great QBs are smart, disciplined, don't say anything brash to the media type guys anyway.

I'm talking about fire-breathing super-emotional players.
Larry Johnson was an asshole, but he was a quiet asshole.
Typically, when we've drafted good players they've been very quiet individuals-- Derrick Johnson, Eric Berry, Jamaal Charles, Dwayne Bowe, Dontari Poe. This is about drafting a guy with the skills and potential to be Richard Sherman who also has the emotions and the swagger to act like Richard Sherman. You need those kind of players on your defense occasionally, and the Chiefs were definitely lacking on those types on their current roster.
