ChiefsPlanet - View Single Post - I think the entire concept of "VALUE" in the draft is obsolete.

All this bullshit from Kiper/McShay types and the value board is all based on the prior CBA. With the new rules, I think that value board is right out the ****ing window.

I think it's simply a case of the pundits not catching up to the new reality. A QB that is a potential franchise guy is worth infinitely more than any other position-especially because you don't have to pay him like one on a rookie contract anymore. THIS totally negates all prior thinking and is the reason, IMO, that the Kipers etc. don't like Geno at #1 but will mock him as early as #8 and call it "VALUE".

Come draft day, they're going to be like Karl Rove on election night.
